That's what I thought Norm! It's nice to start a project

Any pics mate

I'm sure you've left some out Chris

We want pics

We want more pictures!

It's striped in side but that's why I left it proud in the event I need to weld back on !

It's looking really good Mark not long now until it has it's engine put in!

Cheers Mark

Well after having a sleepless night due to Mark mentioning articulation and Chris mention having a rear lift axle I decided to do a little redesigning and I've now made the rear axle articulate , I still got loads of work to do on this but I think I going in the right direction with it . I'm just making spreader plates which will be facing each other on the pivot point which will have grease between the. Similar to fith wheel coupling on a lorry to help it articulate and spread the load . Here is what I've done so far !

I wonder indeed

I'm looking forward to doing this and should be a quite straight forward modification !

Hi all I'm after a set of 12 " rear rims for my latest project condition doesn't matter many thanks James

It's looking really smart mark you do set the Bar high for us to compete with keep it up mate ,can't wait until I see it the flesh again well done James

I was yes I thought abouck making one articulated but that may mess up my chain drive idea , but you have got me thinking now again !

Hi all after seeing many pictures of stretched Horses and brilliantly modified machines to make them more versatile etc such as Marks Brilliant 4x4 conversion on his C101 (check his build thread ) and his latest creation project bendy , then there's Ian with his awesome Raider 6x6 which will go anywhere see the you tube videos ! And the Showman ( Chris) with Trac horse which is another very good mod ! Any way back to my idea I've just very recently took delivery of a 4 speed transmission thanks Ian - Mark and my plan is to attach this behind my 8 speed transmission on my C141 donor tractor and then I will connect the transmissions together so I have 4 wheel drive on the rear of the tractor ! Which I will connect via a chain drive more about that later he's my first nights work enjoy!

I think it would look nice Ian with flame red and some flames airbrushed on keep it up !

Looking well nice to see a vid in action !

We're you located mate

That's what it's doing now and works well tbh might leave it then

Hi all a bit more of an update on HorsePower, I've finished the basic cradle with a few addons I need to do like belt adjuster etc , although I've had the genny working in the past it now seems it's lost it's excitement and needs exciting which there a are a couple of ways which I will demonstrate once I've succeeded!

I'm looking forward to getting a herd of horse on the back

I'm hoping when we go too shows etc we can hook upto caravan etc to charge batteries , and also will be handy to use in the fields were we need mains power tools. James

Cheers Chris

Nice attachment that !
