It sure looks heavy.

auxmike · 09-06-2009, 06:29 PM

This is awesome! Please consider doing more video footage. How fast have you gotten it up to? Have you tried scooting up and down the block yet??

It is surprisingly light. I lifted the plow off of my trailer myself. I believe that the manufacturer's website said that it weighed 240 lbs.

I've only cruised around the property so far (we have about 4 acres). Two town cops and one statey live in my neighborhood, so I haven't taken her on the road yet. Once I get my plowing tires and make my roll cage I am very tempted to try her out on some nearby trails.

Sodium Duck · 09-06-2009, 08:04 PM

If you go on the trails, then you better let me go with, lol. I would love to see that. I'll bring my camera.

Soon! That was just a test fit for clearance. Now I have to do a little welding.

DandiDani · 09-08-2009, 04:56 PM

i want a "crashy" too.

CtrlAltDefeat · 09-08-2009, 11:07 PM

If I had a crashy, I'd go the opposite route from you and soup it up/ strip it down into a dune buggy like thing... roll cage welded in, then cut the roof off of it...

If I see you on a trail, I'll give you the right-of-way.

DandiDani · 09-09-2009, 07:35 PM

thats a cute video

CTScott · 09-11-2009, 09:22 PM

So I did some research and experimentation this week and found out that there is not way (short of eliminating the front brakes) that I can fit 12" wheels. I had to rethink my tire choice, as the largest wheel that the SwampFox tires are made for is 12".

There are a couple of ATV tires made for 15" wheels now, and the narrowest width one is 8". So, I ordered four Maxxis Bighorns in 26x8-R15, which I will mount on the steel wheels that I took off my 09.
