fast88pu 3,324 #78 Posted August 18, 2017 Got hubs painted today and installer my wheel stud kit. Mounted up the wheels and seen what I had to trim for clearance. Last one I did I didn't have to trim anything. This one I have to. 26" vs. 23" photo for comparison. 2 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spareparts 84 #85 Posted August 20, 2017 What size our your axles 1" or 1/18", I see they are the keyed type, make sure to keep the hubs tight and check on a regular basis. I stripped the keys pulling the 1050 lb. class and found some splined axles and hubs and have never had a problem, that was 4 yrs ago and about 75 pulls on them.

They are 1 1/8 axles and haven't had any problem yet with them. The issues come when they loosen up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spareparts 84 #91 Posted August 25, 2017 You have came a long way in a short time, and your work looks excellent,what weight class do you plan on pulling? Do you have a speed limit, we have a 3mph on the lower classes up to 950. Then on the 950 fast and the 1050 classes we have a 5mph limit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fast88pu 3,324 #93 Posted August 26, 2017 I sent my header out yesterday to be ceramic coated and my air intake adapter came in. Also I painted my steering wheel and battery hold downs. Should look like this. 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fast88pu 3,324 #95 Posted August 28, 2017 Fail for an air cleaner. Too tall. Should I tear it open and change the cam, better valve springs and steel push rods and also billet rods? If I get 500 likes I will do it. 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WVHillbilly520H 10,373 #97 Posted August 29, 2017 I wonder if you went to Advance Auto or AutoZone in the Spectre air intake sections and got some of their custom "plumbing" tubes and silicone connectors if you couldn't make that filter work coming out under the left side of the hood like a Harley or old side draft single Kolher also seen a custom header set on the web for the Predators, Jeff.

fast88pu 3,324 #98 Posted August 29, 2017 I have the header built already. It's just off in the photo and I also ordered up another air filter that will fit under the hood 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spareparts 84 #100 Posted August 29, 2017 The ones I have seen pull did not lack for power in stock form, but our heavest class is 1050, I would run it like it is and see how it works, gear up for next season. Your going to have to sort the tractor out before adding more power. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
