When you unbolt the mount from the lower crossmember and lift the engine an inch, all will be revealed :wink: It is wise to loosen the other mount bolt(or remove it) to prevent over stress when lifting the engine :shock: Denis told me about the come a long method a couple years back, the roll bar ma...

Ok here is a way to begin, pull the engine cover, take the cap off of the antena mount on the cab, then support the engine with a come along . Remove the mount bracket, and then drill out the broken studs or mig weld a nut to each broken stud and use a wrench to remove the remains :wink: you can the...

2012, Never engage the front drive on dry pavement, it will bind and make noise, you could even snap an axle. I suggest you read the operating manual for all the details on proper times and terrains to engage.
Try it in the dirt before you determin if there is a real problem :roll:

One overlooked item is the wire from the distributor to the coil(-), if the terminal end corrodes you will get a loss of spark. I have fixed a few hard/no starts by cleaning the contacts :wink: Get a float level guage to check the carbs, check the shutoff solonoids, then make sure you have a good sp...

Well, here is an affordable idea for you, not only will it work, it is cost effective. Make it like my trigger wheel and instead of teeth, have a ring of alluminum or steel cut to form an extention to the rear of the crank pulley, machine the belt groove into the ring and then align and drill , tap ...

I suggest you go drive a Pinz if you are interested in one or you will be wasting your time and money. A good running Pinz (710M )will do 65mph(fast enough for an overglorified tractor) :roll: As far as what the driveline will take, I wouldn't push much past 125hp . If you take the time to search th...

You wire the controller directly to the rear battery for 12 volt source. It's the 12v signal wire(trigger)that is a bit tricky, I put 2 12v LED bulbs in line to cut the 24v brake sense/trigger wire to 12v. It's really a no brainer :roll: The blue and white wires from the controller then get hooked t...
