That race mower came out great Chud, I like how it peels out while it’s already moving down the road. I’m an original Dukes fan from the early 80’s! Love the paint scheme! Call it the General!

I am an original 80's fan too. I love how it kicks up dirt too!! Tonight on the asphalt it was chirping the tires shifting to second and third. I have been calling it General Lee. Thanks for watching and for the comment!!

[@yeahbuddy-zh7ox]

Hey chud I have another Idea for a 4x4 lawnmower. The Idea is that you get rear transaxles and mount them on a pivot on the front and have a double stack pulley go to them and connect the steering. You will probably have to shorten the transaxle shafts on the side that is not on wheels. That's my Idea hope it helps!

[@tomtruesdale6901]

That mower is FAST. Nice job on it. I could keep the sand rail as VW engines are plentiful and cheap if you keep looking.

[@chud327]

VW engines used to be everywhere where, but I have trouble find them now. I will probably keep and hunt patiently. I’m did find an S-10 engine last Friday. Thanks for watching!!

Use di this as teenagers had one that did 60+ but the stock steering u cant keep it in one lane but when used to race use to drill pully and tape a scrub screw for added strength so the key way had les stress on it built some even did on that had rear steer made a 4x4 we to were mount to rear to a plate attached to the bolt on axel turned the input on angle like if ure gonna run drive shaft to it made links to attached to were the plate we bolted to original bolt run-through rear and then weld a plate like so we could mount axel with chain and took u joint and made shaft to run to front back and took the motor mounted the shaft faced towards seat under hood and cut slot in chassis down to the sprocket we mounted on bottom never got it fully done with having all the front and rear gears connected to a central point it would of been selected 4x4 with six gears front and back since we use a rear stear mower trans we i was gonna make it independent gears selected for if i wanted to run frunt fast in crawling atleast it was moving were just pre selected the gear and left the clutch on motor do its job it was over size chain clutch for go kart but the 4x4 concept 4 link can be done with mower part some enginuity love to tey to do it again but now 20plus years later built some crazy machine out of mowers and quads little gokart and some dirt bike parts own many bike and quad as kid more then i ever could even count done so many this anything we could use from parts we have lying around we use have my weekend parts just sitting at garage as teens and 20s just build things fun day's

@chud327 man I'm struggling to make it run let alone make it fast 😂

[@jheetman]

Some slicks are directional and some aren't. The directional ones are engineered to have torque transmitted through them. The sidewall braiding is arranged so that it tightens up or "preloads" under torque load, if installed backwards it will lose that preload and the sidewall will get looser. If slicks are made to be non-powered they are non-directional as far as I know.

[@chud327]

Very cool info and thanks for watching.

Often, a drag slick doesnt really matter direction until they're used and they get traction for the first time. Im guessing the tires had direction arrows so that the end user simply didnt forget which way they had them rotating once installed.

When you do builds like these, do you connect the backfire prevention solonoid on the carburetor?? Personally I do, I definitely don't want fuel destroying my engine. My racing mower, I've been wanting to get it done. All it really needs is electrical and everything checked over to make sure it's tight lubricated and greased, but it's scary fast. It sets maybe 2-Inches or so off the ground. I was told it was banned from tracks for being too fast.

[@chud327]

I leave it hooked up if it works, I cut the plunger off if id doesn't. Many of my machines have gas cut off valves for when they sit. I wanted to lower mine, but didn't get there yet. Mine is scare fast to me, but maybe not as fast as your sounds. Thanks for watching!!

Love this one! I cant seem to find an answer anywhere else so i figured i would ask here. Im not good at pulley swapping and dont have a HUGE budget to make a mud mower/fast mower, is it possible to just swap the front and rear pulleys to make it faster? I heard somewhere else that would work but thought I would ask someone like you. Thanks in advance and once again love the new mower!

[@chud327]

You can, but there will likely be a need to cut and weld to make them work on 99.9 % of mowers. I have videos where you can flop the front pulleys and use the deck pulley as the drive pulley. It doubled the speed the two times I did it. Thanks for watching!!

That is how I was looking at it, if I mess up the hydro then I then have an excuse to manual swap. Then you have a better machine. thanks for watching and good luck with it.

[@hanselmanryanjames]

Without any prior knowledge, and without googling it, I'm guessing the slicks are directional because of the way the belts are inside of it. If it has belts?

[@garrybunk]

@chud327 - Really enjoying your mower build videos! Are there any complications with pulley swapping a mower with a variable speed pulley? I'm referring to leaving the VSP in place (in use) but pulley swapping the engine pulley and transaxle pulley. Is it bad to leave the VSP in place? Will it burn up quickly? Have you done a build leaving the VSP in use? Thanks!

[@chud327]

I have pulley swapped both of my Troy bolts. Both kept VSP. One was front one was rear pulley swapped. Front works perfectly, rear has to be custom made and is inconsistent. I want to put it back to stock when I find a stock pulley. I don’t know how long it will last but so far so great.

[@garrybunk]

@@chud327 So would you say to just leave the rear pulley alone then? I'm not racing this mower, just want to make it a fun utility tractor to use around the property. I'd like to see top speed up around 20 - 25mph, but still have lower "gears" for general use. I believe it's possible to hit 20mph with just a front pulley swap. One big issue is that I want to avoid having to do any welding.

[@chud327]

@@garrybunk you can just flip the front pulleys and drill and bolt, mine hit about 10 mph. You can probably fit a bigger pulley for more speed, but I didn’t know how big you can go. If you do it let me know what you used and how fast. I suggest leaving the rear stock.

Do slicks like these have any kind of steel in them? If so maybe the way its "woven" in the tire has to do with why its directional. Just an uneducated guess.

Hi I’m building a mower and have a question about the brakes. On mine it’s all or nothing. Is there a way to make them variable pressure so I don’t lock up the tires? I didn’t have time to watch the whole vid so I’m not sure if you talked about it or not.

You might could unhook the brakes and move to the deck height lever. Good luck and thanks for watching??

What’s the speedometer app you use called?

[@chud327]

" Speedometer " found in the apple store for free, works great. Thanks for watching!!

When you do the pulley upgrade, do you remove the govenor?

[@chud327]

I would call it more like bypass. I unhook it and just hook my throttle to the carb. Thanks for watching.
