| G'day guys, Just thought i'd show yous a picture of my lawn tractor i got, and that i hope to do up for soem more offroad work. Trying to get bigger wheels and tyres for it...but having difficulties How it was when i first got it... Quickly removed deck for some clearance Needs bigger, grippier tyres urgently. Currently only has turf tyres all round...with the front being a measly 6''x4.10'' And rears are a tiny bit better...8''x6'' i think. Trying to locate bigger wheels so i can fit some A/T tyres |

| Wow- never seen one like that . Id do mods to it that can be reversed , keep all the stock parts in case y ever want to go original and or restore it down the road.
Id find a bolt on way to raise the tractor- front n back to fit larger wheels, so y dont have to chop up those fenders ( or raise the fenders with spacers) . | |

| I love the way everything just opens up so you can work on it. Might do something like that with my tractor. Would make trail repairs easier.
Great looking tractor cant wait to see what you do with it. | |

| It wouldn't take much to make that thing awsome! It's got all the right stuff! It looks really long. | |

| G'day guys Nothing as yet mate in updates to take pictures of. Gradually cleaning up to re-paint when time persists... Chasing some new front wheels, or even some rears if i'm lucky enough. So i can fit some heavier tread, looking at a ag-type arrow tread. Currently setting up a trailer to hitch up to for use around the yard. Earth and garden material hauling mainly. Also thinking of making slight U-blade for the front for shits and giggles...providing i can easily remove it for offroad work |

| Gradually tearing down the rancher to give it a good clean up and begin the modding. Still chasing front wheels Mods so far, new seat or re-vamp the old one, bigger tires, tweak the exhaust a little, hopefully work out a way to reverse the cluth set-up. As standard (how it is now) it is opposite to how most are, this one you have to depress the clutch to put tension on the belt to drive...where as i want it like a proper setup so you depress the clutch to cancel the drive. Couple pics for you of the teardown |
