The good thing about buying something beat on is you don't worry about using it. I would really start low balling these sellers when they try selling these toys that are rougher than a cob. House looks good landscaping really helped you have a nice home and lots of land very nice.

[@Motoxr32]

I always stop in the way home at the local car wash to use the engine degreaser on everything and the hot soapy water to clean each machine before getting it home. Then it dries on the drive home and comes much cleaner than a home power washer. Easier to work on right away. Great job as always! Enjoy your videos!

[@lwwarren]

That's an IQ200 move right there! 😁

[@trentonbriones2381]

That's a great idea

[@jimbo4203]

Especially after mudding , I always give the sxs and dirt bikes a quick spray

[@MakinEndsMeet69]

I've heard people say that they are a little underpowered but definitely dependable. The one good thing I did hear somebody say once and it was a KZbinr that the Rhino was narrow enough to get down most of the trails where are the other one couldn't go! That would be perfect for the property pulling around your big grass cutter. Many blessings to you and your wife as always.

[@Joe_HamRadioGuy]

Cool machine. To bad it lacked maintenance. But I'm sure you'll have it running like new again in no time. Did a nice job pulling the mower. Have a great Sunday enjoy the riding.

[@allan9603]

Joe I owned 4 of those Yammer Hammers when I had my golf course. Those large single cylinders are pretty much unbreakable, but like yours, for some reason I was forever replacing CV joints and shafts! Great video and another beer toast to you! Allan in Columbia, SC

[@mikejones420]

Those machines are pretty bullet proof, I was a yamaha mechanic for a while, when you do the engine tear down, make sure to pay close attention to the cylinder walls, cam lobes, and cam bearing surfaces. Judging by that dirty air filter, the engine may have been injesting dust and dirt, causing the smoking. When these machines are maintained properly, they do run forever. Great video Joe.

[@danieldeboard9379]

I can't believe you did all that work with a broken cv axle 😮

[@paulbudford]

The house is really coming along. Love what you have done with it. Great video Joe

[@jasonstcin659]

Joe, I am a landscaper and I've been doing it for about 23 years. I think the landscaping you did looks phenomenal buddy you did a wonderful job and don't let anyone ever tell you otherwise awesome job buddy it looks amazing for sure. Around the house is looking amazing keep up the good work Buddy. Love the videos can't wait to view the next one. ✌️

[@Jeffrose_]

Love your channel. It's great watching you and wife and doggy grow as a family.

[@journeytoliving7344]

You did alright. I sure enjoy your videos. You all have a nice home .lots of work you have put into it. Blessings to you.

[@matthewstuckey665]

Great video as always. Plus great work on the landscaping. Looks amazing man

[@402YEEP]

@2vintage watch all the vids man. Hooked for a long time. Excellent, to say the least. Started to do a bit of plastic repair myself. I found that right before you remove heat to the metal repair clip, give a slight twist to the hand cannon 3000 to give a little extra burn angle if possible. Just a tip tip tiparoo. Much love from neb

[@anthonyblacker8471]

Wow.. when you first started it up I was like yeah it does sound good but man it only sounds like 1 cylinder is firing.. I had NO idea a 660 was a single cylinder. That's pretty darn cool Joe.. I honestly had NO idea they were that big on a single!! Neat!

[@Patshes]

The hour meter and odometer could have been replaced thus the low reading.

[@chasleask8533]

Enjoyed that . I don't know if you remember , about a year ago you had a Yamaha motorbike with - I believe - a Bosch Siba Dynastart system . It ran , then didn't run , then ran , then didn't run , and you gave up on it . Not sure what you did with it . ( Maybe buried it next to the other one ) I was working on a Zundapp scooter with exactly the same problem . I have traced the problem to the ignition switch , which can react badly to being operated in starter mode for too long - overheats - becomes loose - and creates the problem you had with it . The solder partially melts and lets the contacts give intermittent performance . Hope this information helps .

[@transmitterguy478]

Joe, you can align that ign switch by filing another notch in the dash to clock it correctly. I had to do that to mine when I replaced the ignition switch.

[@joeeasterling5652]

Those are awesome machines! We don't get much snow down here in Louisiana, but we have mud the last half of hunting season. I have never had to use my winch. The diff lock is always enough. I gave 3200.00 for mine 2 years ago and love it!

[@jayaustin3096]

Great video again. Sharpin the mower blade it needs it. That extra peice of plywood came in handy. I hate laying down on gravel. Well done sir. Cant wait for the next one.

[@dhooter]

I'm addicted to this channel lol. Can't stop watching. You are doing some very interesting stuff. 👍👍🤘🤘

[@IEchuckie]

My friend has one of those and he can do 35 miles an hour on the street ( it's licensed for the street in AZ) 37 downhill. That's why I'm getting a fiberglass dune buggy with a VW engine. I need to go faster than 35

[@nomadchad8243]

I bought an old clapped out pos and put 2000$ in bearings,boots,brakes,shifter,ujoints,bushings,beer,driveshafts,couplings,Raptorliner,tires. But now I have a brand new Rhino with 15,000kms. I love it, it goes over and under everything.

[@nomadchad8243]

What is the LxW of your trailer? Im looking for one to just fit a SxS but not be too big for the driveway.

[@mikebennett9356]

There was a half door kit installed on those under safety recall. People were sticking their leg out if it went up on two wheels, and it was snapping their legs. Saw it happen once on a test ride at the dealership.

[@ronaldwvaught]

Nice house young man. I ran across one of your videos on a Ranger so scrolled back through all your history bookmarking Ranger-type projects. Then I wondered how long you’ve been posting- wow, like a third of your life or maybe 1/4! Best wishes and I’ll keep watching.

[@robertkeime4907]

I have 2004 …. Been a great machine. Pushes snow like crazy.

[@harmonic3350]

See what a little TLC will do, looking sharp now. Lil bit of oil helps too. I can vouch for Mothers Back-to-black on plastics. Gravel round the house is great for dealing with bugs.

[@anthonyblacker8471]

The house looks great Joe. Nice work and doing it yourself, save a bunch of cash. It's totally worth it!!

[@puff427]

U have come along way since u started in family's garage as a teen.Great job on the yard so far.keep it up and always reep the awards.High 5 to vinny..b safe.peace..

[@anthonyguerrera4196]

Hey joe, you should always check the oil before you start it. That’s mechanics 101. Great vids keep up the good work.

[@ar2043]

Sweet video. That was awesome the way you chopped it up with a bunch of different stuff that you were doing. Really enjoyed it. Hey, do you own all of "the land" or is it like a family thing? Just curious.

[@that_400ex_guy7]

Those Rhinos are some awesome machines, I had an EFI 700 and that thing ran like a champ. When they are maintained they are super reliable. The light lenses get broken by dumping the bed while there’s something behind it, I did that 2 times 🤦‍♂️

[@kadanv8974]

We have a 2004 Yamaha Rhino 660. The thing has been through so much and refuses to die. It was involved in a rollover when my sister tried drifting it with three of her friends in it and the tire blew so it caused it to flip. It was driven into a tree by my sister in law. And it was involved in a huge accident when I let my girlfriend drive. We hit about 70 kmh when we hit this steep corner. It rolled a few times, I flew out the side and fractured my ankle and really messed up my knee. The thing was just flipped over, gas line had fallen off so just had to put that back on. Still runs strong. Will not die.

[@Hi-sb5cm]

👍 cool machine and great landscaping👍 much love from the uk 🇬🇧

[@lwwarren]

You are correct. It uses the same drive train as the Grizzly of the same year. I have an '04 Grizzly, and '06 Grizzly and an '06 Rhino. Specifically because they all use the same maintenance parts because I'm too lazy to have spares from multiple manufacturers. I can have one spare of all the typical wear or breakage items and use them on whichever machine needs it.

[@user-pe2uo5ui2i]

Your Landscaping job around the house looks really good.

[@snowyowl7042]

Great video, a little tinkering and up and running

[@groundhog8148]

Wow nice work on the landscaping making the hose come alive when you do it yourself

[@Silent-Lucidity]

[@1972bcain]

Not really a home Reno channel, but any info on that retaining wall and drainage for you new landscaping? Awesome channel of course I love tuning in, never a dull one!

[@kobybear08]

Some people are so lazy not to maintain their spent $$$$$ utility or atv or recreational vehicles, some people really are fortunate to learn what needs to be done, watching 2VINTAGE, lol.. 😊 Your Awsome Joe.

[@thebigguy8306]

Great Project, something many "shade tree mechanics" should tackle vs spending $$$ on new. Keep up the hard work

[@johnandersson]

That Yamaha 660 single is indestructible. I’ve had it in two motorcycles and I love it. Zero issues!

[@just_in_time5518]

Nice job on the landscaping Joe! 😁

[@gypsyxxx]

them 660's are great engines, rhinos are good units, your house looks great

[@Patshes]

Cool buy!. Never clean an oil filter from the outside in . You will clogg it up and pretty much renders it useless.

[@kalaharimine]

Don't you mean air?

[@jasonjavelin]

Looks like squirrels got the shifter. Not sure if that’s common in your state but the squirrels where I live will wreck rubber and plastics stuff if you live near the woods. Pretty good sign it was stored outside at some point. That really sucks that he didnt mention that it was burning oil you know for sure he knew about that. Hopefully it wont be too bad on the rebuild but at least its more content

[@fw1421]

Looks like you need a replacement electrical box cover,amongst other things. Gotta keep water away from the fuses. It appears that the bracket the rollers were mounted on is pushed in,that’s why it was out of place.

[@alanrobison3298]

Beautiful job on the landscaping!

[@keithproctor6380]

Just a suggestion...run your cable all the way out and spray some lubricant on it, then put some weight on it to pull back in. House looks amazing. Should you run that with the CV joint broke???

[@jerrywilcox9890]

It's not going to hurt it running it with a bad cv lol.

[@whiterhinooutdoors4572]

Love your channel makes my wanna buy a broke down machine to see if I can fix it and have a sweet ride

[@jman6030]

Good job on the landscaping 😉

[@neutonrenda2303]

Landscaping looks amazing, nice to keep the grass away from the house.

[@davesplace1307]

Need to see more videos around the house and land of you doing some things

[@zeelastman]

My family owns 2 rhinos and a wolverine x2. 660, 700 and 850 and they are all great machines. The 660 needed its fuel lines replaced but that's it, between all 3 they have been rock solid.

[@larrybloomer1536]

Not sure if you washed out the radiator, but it was just as dirty as the air filter. Great job on all the rest. I enjoy all your videos, especially since you talk to us, not at us. Carry on with what you are doing..

[@michaelyarmie4858]

You should take some degreaser cleaner and a bristle brush and clean the engine area before you tear into it. That's what I would do first.

[@lwwarren]

Love my '06 Rhino. It's a workhorse and will last forever if you take care of it.

[@nicklopez3580]

Landscape looks amazing and really nice machine

[@josephseymour752]

Hey Joe great job on all the other machines you 've worked on. Serious question. When are you going to get the Hovercraft repaired and running again? I know that a lot of people want to know. But I know parts are hard to come by.

[@bryonshuttt436]

Really nice job!!!

[@magoo_1990]

Looks like Cody or Blue got that shifter handle. Good vid as always.

[@blackbartbartholomew7122]

Don’t forget to put air filter oil on. Had 2006 450cc and 2006 660cc. Most reliable machines I’ve ever owned next to 1984 Honda Big Red.

[@ziggieire]

i have a 2007 660 Rhino for the last 2 years, needed some contacts cleaned, and a new set of decompression springs, i switched to electric fuel pump, as the diaphragm pump failed. they are not fast, but they have serous pulling power

[@Mrcrowley1967]

I have a rhino that needs some love also brakes and Maintainence also love the thing will go over almost anything rite over 12 inch thick downed trees with ease it is a workhorse great property machine.

[@robertpickett6907]

The landscaping looks really good sir.

[@colty151]

Not sure if it’s been mentioned, but the early Rhinos didn’t have that gauge. That’s why the lack of miles. These didn’t have an hour meter or odometer factory. The “gauge” that was in there was replaced, which was just a cluster of lights. Something folks should be aware of when looking to buy a 2004-2006. I think 2007 they started with the LCD gauge.

[@christophercrosby5773]

Dude you have a nice plot of equipment, you should look into a used vent-trac they have lots of attachments for main unit.

[@tboystoys5682]

Faded Plastic can be freshened up by going over it with a blow torch. But don’t hold it in one spot keep the flame moving over the surface. I’m surprised you never knew that hack. Great videos brother. Thanks I learn a lot from your channel. 👍👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

[@dehumm9619]

For the short term. That brings the oils up to restore the look but dries the plastic out and long term makes it brittle and breaks.

[@simplesi6513]

Little tip for black plastics, if you have a heat gun give them a quick once over. Brings the oils back to the surface.

[@KenMrKLC]

There is no way it has that low miles in my opinion. I think the meter was swapped out

[@bmbott123]

Has alot of hrs tho. 500 hrs ..

[@James-sir]

Ceramic coating after a good wash on you and your wife’s vehicles will keep the water beading off the paint and plastic so when you can just use water to spray off the dirt and grime and it last like 6 months especially if you have salt roads in winter ceramic coat em use a pressure washer after that for quick washes amazing

[@sandmanbub]

Joe, if you have a band saw, you can remove the side walls of an old car tire or motorcycle tire and cut the tread to fit the black plastic bumpers in the front of your machine. Plastic loses it's solvents by evaporation and becomes brittle over time. The vertical rubber bumpers would make that a non issue. Drill mounting holes the diameter of the bolt shakes and drill a larger diameter hole the size of the bolt heads to counter sink. Whoop!

[@alanblenkinsop2775]

You have a beautiful home and your land is amazing joe I envy you mate

[@HOLY_FRIJOLES]

About those weeds you have in the field. Pretty neat. From Wisconsin agriculture site: In midsummer, the tall flower stalks of common mullein, Verbascum thapsus, begin to poke up, making this common weed in the family Scrophulariaceae highly noticeable in the road cuts and waste areas where it thrives. Native to Europe, northern Africa and Asia, it was probably introduced to North America several times as a medicinal herb. In the mid‑1700’s it was used in Virginia as a piscicide (fish poison). It spread rapidly and had become so well established by 1818 that a flora of the East Coast at that time described it as a native. It had reached the Midwest by 1839 and became widely naturalized on the Pacific Coast by 1876. Today common mullein is distributed throughout the U.S. and Canada wherever the growing season is at least 140 days and rainfall is sufficient (50-150 cm), especially on dry sandy soils. Common mullein is typically found in neglected meadows and pasture lands, along fence rows and roadsides, in vacant lots, wood edges, forest openings and industrial areas.

[@bradley7723]

Just use 20-50w oil until your ready to ring it and replace valve seals. It'll slow oil burning down a little .

[@shotgunz1248]

Don't forget to check oil in differentials along with changing CV axle if CV joint separates u could damage some things

It should have a speed limiter at about 42mph. A CDI swap will get you to 50-52 and then add a stock grizzly 660 primary clutch and you should see 59-60mph on stock 25” tires. I wouldn’t do big bore unless you replace the head bolts with studs. Just throw in a higher compression piston with the stock bore is my recommendation. I bought my ‘07 rhino new and still have it. Love it.

Hey man, great job! You know you can restore the shine in plastics by heating it with a flame right? Saves you on plastic restorer costs
