Green Monster Biuld

yah hopefully ill have another update soon i havent had much time to work on it

just dont rush through it, always take your time and you'll only have to do things once.

Or save it for stage 2.... always room for upgrades.

yah since i kinda suck at arch welding im going to have my dad weld the spindles while i build an atv rack for the back.......holy crap that rimed

Well a little update today i made a bit of progress. First off i got the spindles of and my dads going to take them to work and use a wirefeed. Next i got a new battery for it really cranks her over now. And last but not least i got a start on the atv rack... learned not to use galvanized steel it gives off some really strong fumes lol

Another update. sorry no pics but today i got my spindles back and i put them on went for a spin with the big tires and for some reason my mowers faster than it was before . Made more progress on the Atv rack i got the actual rack done just need to do the mounts. Hopefully ill have pics soon i just keep on forgetting to grab my camera before i go to the shop.

FINALL som pics!!

This is the actual rack

And these are the arms that are going to hold it.
Please do not critisize me for my welds all i have to weld with is an old lincoln Thats older than christ

Nice man! ATv racks are great! i like the close toghether bars. Then stuff dont fall threw em. Are you gunna put up some side bars? Your welds arnt that bad, pretty good for using an old welder! im guessing stick? You can always grind em smooth and hide them under a coat of paint lol.

Good job! keep it up! glad to see some pics too.

I dont think i will put side bars on it because then certain things wouldnt fit on there ....like a gun for hunting

Well another update i finally finished the rack all i have to do is paint it. I threw some stock tires on the front so i could go for a little romp. got to get those tubes.


for some reason in the picture it doesnt look straight but it is. Also i plan on rigging a handwinch slash bumber for the front probally just going to make a winch mount

that is cool. good job:)

Well guys im not going to run big tires in the front for now cause its about 30 bucks a tube and im a cheapass... and also the hole point in my mower is that i save money. But yah all my mudpits on my trails are nice and soupy so i went mudding


And one without chains didnt get far

That looked like some awesome muddin.
I really need to get mine out again and put a new belt on it and go muddin.

yah it was pretty crazy

Well my dad found me some nice cheap innertubes so i put the bigger tires on again i am very happy with the results

Decided to do some crawlin with it

well bad news guys green monster is dead but another mower took its place the cenex the thing is a beast and it walked right through my pond it was awsome just need bigger front tires and a gas pedal
