duelling tires

yep, sure was alot of fun today in the mud.. folks sure kinda notice too.....

I have a hustler 20 hp. The only reason the axel broke is beacuse the axel has a hole in the center to hold the sprocket to it. A pin goes through the 2 and locks them in place. That is where it broke. Dullies are cool and do great in the mud. Plus it makes people pause and take a double look when you drive by.

I looked at those dual wheel spacers on ebay and the ad said they would custom make them.

Thanks JP,I doubt i would ever buy any thing from richards.I'm like a lot of people on this site,If i can make it and save money i'm all for it.That is a lot better deal.

Thanks Steve, Part of the reason the site is here is to help save people money on quality parts and help them avoid places where they'll get ripped off.

$480?!!! That is absolutely insane!!! On ebay you can get dual wheel adapters for $95/pair, which would be $285 for a set of 6. Do yourself a favor, save almost $200 and avoid Route6x6. Here is the link for the ones on ebay.....free shipping too.

Since ebay has been making all kinds of silly changes, the link might not work, so just search for the ebay item number 190323072484

Richards has them for $480 plus shipping,That's not going to happen.They also said you would need to run 21 inch tires,Probably just another sells pitch.When i was a kid one of my parents friend had a vw buggie that had dual tires on the back,He cut some of the center out of the outer rim so that he could get to the lugs on the inter rim and welded them together.Man that thing was cool and it would float the rearend up long enough to get through deep water.I was thinking of doing the same to one of my 6 wheelers,That would cut a good bit of weight out.What do you think???????

duels 4 me

I have found the dullie kit is good for water and verry soft terrain. it feels really stable in water. On dry land though i ran them and broke a rear axel the one you have to pull the motor to replace. So this was on a hustler i dont know how your max will do but the dules are to much strain for my machine. what ever you do good luck.

I haven't had any real problems... but then again,i have an Amphicat

duel it to it.....

aren't they(max/argo) the same interchangable axles? or size diameter? Well on some?
possibly interchangeable, or just make a set for both!
