I used an electric 4 wheeler to rebuild my mobility scooter after someone ran it over out side the corner store and drove off! Now its reliable and I can rip it in the snow as where in it original shape it was stuck in 2 inches of snow! I just bought a wrecked Zero motorcycle going to build my own custom mobility scooter from the ground up!

I also have a mobility scooter and had the same problem in the winter. To solve the problem of getting stuck I used self tapping screws in the rear wheels. Just a single row all the way around about an inch apart. Very seldom do I get stuck anymore.

That sucks that it got ran over but it's awesome that you could rebuild it better than before. Hopefully nothing happens to this one.

Probably would've been easier to cram the predator into the quad but a full suspension mower is way cooler

That is absolutely wild! I can't believe how you got all that Polaris suspension tucked inside that Murray chassis and body. It really does look amazing now, I hope you can get the steering and brakes worked out, it does look scary af to drive without those working great. I wish YT would promote your channel and get you more subscribers. You make good videos, it's clear you're putting a lot of work into filming and editing. Your projects are super fun and you have plenty of good older videos on your channel as well. I watch a lot of Low-Buck Garage's videos and when I first started watching his channel he had really low views on his vids, but recently his channel has been growing fast. I have no idea how the YT algorithm works but hopefully with the quality videos you're making something will change soon and your videos will start getting the exposure they deserve.

It looks great. awesome job using old parts.

This is amazing! It's also funny that after all that work and atv parts, it's still a real tractor, steering is terrifying at speed, rattles and weird noises coming from under and brakes that don't work 😂😂😂

What a great job. Fabrication skills are excellent. Very nice job!! Cool machine

Absolutely stunning . Great attention to detail! I love it!

Love it! I like the way you were thinking out of the box. It totally wasn't what I was expecting

Really glad this video got you some attention. Still only a fraction of what it deserves. Awesome build.

The exhaust was fine. A little heat wrap would have been more than enough. But I love this oem looking mower rider!

Interesting build, and very entertaining. Hope your channel gets more exposure. Subbed.

Jus found your channel as KZread just posted it on my feed scrolling down so I think KZread might be catching on to your channel but either way I literally sat and watched 5 videos of yours after KZread showed me one and jus gotta say your awesome man!! The craftsmanship you put into each of these and obviously turning a dolly into a go cart was smart as hell and you did a dope job!! Can’t wait to watch new videos and will keep watching old ones to catch up!!

VERY COOL AND NICE. REALLY LIKE ALL THE THINKING THAT WENT INTO THE MOWER.ON THE STEERING IS TRY ADDING A LONGER PIECE ON THE BOTTOM OFF THE STEERING SHAFT. IT SHOULD MAKE IT STEER BETTER . GREAT WORK!!!!😮😮😮

That's an interesting project. Impressive engineering skills Very good job Sir. I an have a 2004 Murray 12.5 horsepower Briggs and Stratton 40 inch cut . In 2019 the engine started blowing oil out really fast. I came up with a Kohler 25 horsepower V twin. The Murray has a dual drilled engine mounting plate, that made changing engines a lot easier. I have to say double the horsepower made a big difference. The only problem is, if something stops a blade, things get tore up pretty quickly. The blade on the left side stopped, the engine didn't bog at all. It ripped the drive pulley for the blade spindle in half (top and bottom) and broke the blade adapter, and stripped out the spindle shaft. Fortunately I had the parts on hand to repair. I still like my mower 😊

This is insane, you definitely deserve way more views my friend for the quality of you videos, one question though, can you show us how you got the kill switch and choke set up?

Got a wild idea with an old garden tractor and a free four wheeler this morning that lead me here. Thanks for giving good explanations and talking thru it. Gonna try this myself.

Can't hardly beat those predator engines, they have made many projects possible for me!

Awesome job, the world would be a better place with more people like you

I used a Murray just like that in the late 90s to clear 6 ft high weeds on about 2 acres, thing was a beast. Definitely not the intended use, LOL.

This is dope your channel was on my recommendation

That's freaking cool. Nice work.

Now time to build the 212 up for some more hp

Best job it looks good and symmetrical.

Nice work! I'm working on a Murray Classic right now, just getting it running right and swapping out the rear pulley from 9" to 3". Should give it a top speed of around 12 mph give or take. I'll see how that feels and then consider flipping the front pulley for a few more mph. Thank you for taking the time to share your work/play. 👍🍻

Wow, very underrated. Take that to a car show dude XD

Love the mower build, but the front brakes would work great if you would pulling the cables and not tring to compress the sheathing.If you would weld a tab on the bottom of the brake pedal and move the cables down that would fix your problem with the front brakes.

Get Redbeard to make you a badass motor.

You need a lot of mod parts for that predator. Imagine that cam chop!

This is basically a mini quad

Gambler Spec looks very similar to Paton Spec!!!!

What about souping up the power to pull tree roots with blocks and tackles... Or... Is that impossible...?

As a Monday morning QB here… could you just have put a slight “body lift” / spacers on the rear pan to clear the chain to save the work you had to do? I like the build a lot I’ve been trying to figure out a suspension I like your idea. On mine I think I’d put a dead pedal on the left side and put both accel, and brake pedal on the right to heel toe it. I wonder if a guy were to get a larger garden tractor if you could put the 670 on it? 😁. I’d also try to figure out electric start (im old) Thanks for bringing us along on this adventure. I obviously need a welder and some skill before attempting. 😂

Mower was $25, engine was free, four wheeler was $100, torque converter was $65, tires were $175, jackshaft was $67, seat was $50, stage 1 kit, spray paint, grip tape etc probably $65 more. So about $550 total.

If you did the project again would you change the engine to a vertical shaft or stick with the horizontal?

Because the transmission was such a question mark, I'm glad I went horizontal. I'm making a follow up video on the mower to try and fix things I don't love, and I also have a second project I'm looking at doing with a vertical shaft

Put dampeners on the spot where the hood closes. That might be the weird noise your describing from under the hood.

Question, a riding lawn mower has a pully from the engine to the rear end, could you put in a chain drive system on the bottom like a bicycle drive chain?

@gamblerspec

7 ай бұрын

I have seen similar setups but I think the issue is the tension. As a chain stretches and sags gravity would try and pull it down and off the pulley. A typical chain setup is vertical so it can't fall off. If you could solve the tension issue it seems like it could work
