i was thinkin of that, but ima do a cage over the engine so it gets the buggy look to it

been away for a week, internet was out, and ive had no welding wire, ive got all the stuff ready to be done, just need wire, ive only came across one problem....my engine is only firing on 1 cylinder now, and idk what the hell is causing it, lol

Ah darn, burned a piston...

i hope not, ima going to mess with it tomorrow seeif i can fix it, but idk how much im gone be able to do, the hood on mom's explorer slammed onto my hand earlier when i was workin on it, now its swole and sore lol, luckily it was my left, but damn, that ***** hurt

this came in also, ive got the plate and everything ready to weld in, just need wire....lol


and yes, the tires clear it perfectly, only thing is the end of it will stick out the cage some

It's ok to not have the winch reel perfectly centered on the front of the tractor.

I can see being worried about that on a truck, where you have plenty of room. But there is too little room up there to be worried about it, on this.

it is centered lol, i was standing to the side when i took the pic, but im pretty sure i centered it

I know.

I was saying it's ok to NOT have it centered, so that it won't stick out of the cage.

Well that kills the mood

Top or bottom rod.

the connecting rod between the piston and crank, on the right side if your looking at the motor like a V

Happens on occation. Is the crank scored up real bad? Might be able to patch it up with some parts. I've fixed up singles that have been run without oil. Not ideal, but possible.
