Home for the first time!

Looks real good man I like the motor

nice that you kept a line, where you didnt paint it, on the gastank. future mods?

Thanks guys.
Red for future mods I plan on 3 or 4 lug axle hubs and matching rims so I can have interchangeable/better tires for the rear, better wiring (push button and toggle switch), better tires for the front, and the brakes that I don't have done!LOL

looks good, I like the paint job

UPDATE.
 
Well I blew the teeth off the spider gears the other day when I had it home (burnouts going up a steep hill in 6th gear floored isn't that good for your gears)LOL.  So I swapped in a peerless mst-206-502A and then I ran into a problem... The rod that sticks up out of the tranny that the shifter connects to rubs on the belt so I think I am going to have to make another belt tensioner pully to pull it away from the rod.
 
 I think I might be getting new tires as well. The tires of choice will be.....
Front
16x6.50-8 Carlisle snow hogs  
 
Back
19x7-8 kenda pathfinders
OR
20x7-8 kenda scorpions
 
I am thinking about which back tires to pick so I .MIGHT. let that up to you guys.

Guess they made a few models, oh well. Learn something new everyday!

look at kenda bearclaws too. relatively cheap

I could go bearclaws but I would like to keep my mst-206 in good condition (axles, gears, etc..) so I am going to go with a less grippy tire. So I think I will order the knobbys from ebay.


Also I got a belt retainer pully made and ready to be installed (just need to drill holes), then I might take it on a romp to a friends house!

UPDATE!!

I got the belt tensioner pully done (a few days/weeks ago) took it for a ride and found out that I had a leak where the brake shaft comes out so I need a seal and I found this, but I'm not sure if this is what I need or not.

details for trans...
Trans-axle: Peerless MST-206-502A

I have tires!!!!
 
The other day I was looking and was going to get knobbys but my dad said that the knobs would shear off when I drive on pavement around turns, so I thought and thought and made up my mind and got Carlisle Trail Wolfs for the back and the snow Hogs for the front.
 
BTW, I still have my old 18's with chrome rims. The old 20's got replaced.
 
Pics of the progress....
