The front end looks so much better with the fenders trimmed and the wheel wells covered.

Maybe Find a giant winch for the front for weight...

How about a "Ballast Bumper " that can be manually or hydraulic moved forward to bring the front end down while towing from the rear.

Suggestions if you don't mind Build a brush guard with expanded metal in between the bars to keep brush from hanging up on the front, and possibly ripping through the grill into the radiator and intercooler. Also make you a connection points for some suitcase weights from a big tractor so that you can keep your front down where it belongs. First it will allow you to have better vision, and it will greatly reduce the stress on the drive components by sitting it down on level tracks. Also I bebelieve that if it were mine, that I would build a framework along each side under the body to attach sheet metal at an angle from the outside edge of the body itself to midway down on the frame to keep any brush either caught in the tracks, or along side of the trails through the brush from ripping parts of the body loose as well as any hydraulic hoses are anything else that possibly could be damaged by anything mentioned. Better to be over built for just such things, as to be stranded yourself by something as likely as a piece of a tree limb hung in the tracks at just the right angle under power to do damage to key components or even a body panel getting beat to pieces. Great job on reworking the fender openings. Once you finish the body work and get everything painted it'll be sweet for sure. Just outside looking at what you have, 😢and giving you something to think about from old man's experiences through the years. Two minds see things slightly different from the other, but ultimately it's totally your decision. Peace n Harmony makes the world a better place for everyone.

Previous videos explain the plan. Weights won’t help. the oscillation of the rear wheel suspension, causes it to wheelie if you pin the oscillation it won’t wheelie anymore.

are those arms front to the rear above track ones that shove a brake for... track-brake steering or is there a coupler/de-coupler on each side of differential that disengages a track from diff??

Great for flat ground, but where I go he would probably be upside down

Definitely needs a push bar and a winch for the front end!

All I have to do is pin the oscillating rear suspension, and it won’t wheelie.
