wallfish 17,114 #444 Posted October 31, 2020 (edited) How do you plan to turn it using a steering wheel? That's just one thing I couldn't figure out how he did it without actually working on one. I'm assuming that's the front axle Name ? Yeti Edited October 31, 2020 by wallfish 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes that is the front axle. Just getting started on it. As far as turning using the steering wheel, wellllll I'm not sure on that yet. My drive unit isnt going to be a standard shift I'm going to use a split hydro unit from a Toro zero turn mower. That way I can get forward on any given side while still being able to reverse on the other. So that being said maybe I will go with lever steer like a bull dozer. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
