The front tires are Toro tires from a snow blower and they had holes drilled in them for lug nuts. The exhaust is 2 and a half inch pipe from my truck. I already went ahead and replace all the steering with stuff front a old Polaris snowmobile. I have 25's for the back already from the same fourwheeler but I'll get a picture of them after work.

Looks like you had fun none the less! Small stuff is a pain when you're having fun, understandable. I broke my shift linkage twice when i went to do some snow riding lol. Nothing like cruising in 3rd and then having to get off and get underneath it to back it up!

It was fun til every time I wanted to back up I had to hop off and dig in the mud to find the link on the transaxle but oh well. I want to hear what you guys think should I go with some AG tires bear claws or a swamp lite I can't decide.

So I've been planning this out over the last few days and I think I'm gonna set my drivetrain up like Puppetkickers. I already have a jackshaft from lifting the mower and it wouldn't be hard to put another pulley on the shaft.

u really should have washed it before u put it up you can ruin the paint all your bearings and your belt can dry up but anyways love to see it as a 4x4 dont lock the front axle when u put it in so u r not putting so much stress on it good luck

Bajeebus, how did you get into ships? Looks cool. And I'm not sure how well a hydro will work with a hearses axle, maybe a bit of binding

I'm going to college for Power Engineering at a Maritime school so diesel lab is tearing apart the Training Ship State of Maine's main engine and generator engines down for maintenance. I'm gonna try the hyrdo just to see what happens but I have another 800 series to swap the knuckles on to to match my rear transaxle.
