The back of my machine is now the front and it steers to the left as I am driving the new "forward". The oil leaked after a good hour of hard driving and I am blaming it on overheating. I drove it again the next day for an hour of less heavy steering and there was minimal leaking. Gear oil on the floor is terrible to clean up.....
For the rest of you I will certainly be counting track pins tonight. I can pull a link if that works out to be the problem. As for laying out the track to measure it that will need to wait until I have some help.
Here are some pics from the weekends fun! That deuce never had a chance. He came over the hill and bang!
Not a re-enactment just two of us playing around. I had a guy with a drone flying around doing video but I am waiting for him to email me some of it.
For anyone in the Edmonton area looking for a machine of metal shop I can recommend the ones I used, that barrel is a complete fab job and I think it fits/looks the part pretty dam good.
A big thanks to Dave for letting me come out and drive on his land.
