I need to go ahead with an actual bolt for strength. I am kind of on the fence about the fender flares. I realize that I don't have as deep a fender pan as Doc did so I don't have the material to cut and bend up for attachment. That, and I think my fenders are wider?

Luckily for me I've removed small tires by hand so many times it's usually a pretty quick and easy process haha. Do you have tubes in your front tires mighty? If so maybe a crack in the tire pinched the tube.

Did get a little hiking done today. Not too much, but some.

Got my tire plugged! Good to go there!
I like to keep good bolts. These are some saved from an engine in the past. They will be good to use for this application. They worked well!
Re-attached and looking good! Very solid now.
Had to shut the door, Raining Hard! got 1.5in in 30 minutes.
Last thing I would like is to install is a brake disk or drum. This transaxle brake no matter how I tweak it on this tractor is weak. Other tractors I have I can get them to LOCK up.

I have just started the Wench mount planning. I have a plate to mount it to my bumper. I cut up my old one plate for the Sasquatch build. I fixed the old wench post that was broke off. I wish it had the ability to unlock for spooling instead of the motor to unravel.
I have my eye on an ATV basket that isn't selling on craigslist. Seeing if it comes down in price.
I have planned out my brakes, I just need to do it. I think I will try separate the clutch from the brake and see what happens. I think I can get this thing to work better.

I do know the seam was starting to come apart I think due to dash twisting. I think down the line, I will make a tray that will bolt in on the original gas tank mounts and have a drop in tank. It seems to make the most sense. I'll run what I have till it finally breaks. Bad thing, if it were to leak, it would leak darn near the solenoid. That thing were to spark during a leak! Bye-Bye tractor.

Here's is the little skid plate I had at first. Sorriest weld I think I have ever done.
Here is the same joint that I went back over.
I went back over a couple other welds on it as well as added a couple others. Pretty solid now!
