These things are animal used to have an arctic cat 300, the drive train was made by suzuki. In first gear super low these are geared 126.5:1 O.O big bears are only 60:1. Lowest geared 4 wheeler ever produced.

I just went on a quad buying spree ended up getting six ATVs for $700 two are the Suzuki 300 king quads both are 4x4 and I'm going to cut one up and make a side x side (utv) out of it. Been looking for videos of people thinking of making trucks or go karts from old four wheelers, yours came up and I liked it.

Will those back axle shafts take the extra weight with out bending or messing up the bearings in the rear diff ? Maybe a articulating tag axle added to the back with the dump box over that. just a thought. Can`t wait to see the build . You always have good videos.

@Mike Daniels i have a 250 king quad and mine has a huge gap in it too, have no idea, but i think it may just be more space for bigger engines, and they just used the same frame
@crudboy123 жыл бұрын
even the 300 king quad had a bit of a gap. I think it's just a side effect of having the engine, transmission, and rear differential as one unit.
@Rosskenpo113 жыл бұрын
How about putting some sort of bogie wheels and suspension on an extended frame to carry the weight and extra length of the box? that way you won't have to mess with lengthening any of the vitals.

I just picked up one of these!! Good Little Machines!! I am custom building rods and steal for a shifter (Can not stand the $200 gear shifter cable)!! But I would prob build new engine mounts before cutting the frame!! That way the engine will sit up more near the front then you would get enough clearance !! Thanks 4 Sharing !!

Why in the hell would you move the engine away from the way it was designed? The main reason of that design was for traction and stability. Remember that, its why these quads go more places than most in rear wheel when others are in 4wd

I have had the carb in a carb cleaning machine and it made a massive difference when it eventually does run... however I have to pump a lot of gas down the plug hole to get er going.. whats the problem guy's?

This is not a King quad. I am the original owner of a1993 king quad 300(280cc), and I love it! I had a 2004 660 Grizzle, it was fast and fun, but no good for crawling through the woods and forget about being quite. C.V.T.s have no low in revers and cant crawl back out of what they can crawl in to. Not an issue for the King quad or the FWD 250. There is just no beating this five speed with high, low and supper low for slow quite work. A real utility quad and hunters dream. If you think Onimogs are cool this is the machine for you!
