i believe you can get 4'' wide conveyor belting that is ribbed , which would help with traction some in snow and mud . noels idea is good . check online mcmaster carr co. they have different belting...
Regarding adding steel to regular plastic tracks, yes. I actually did a set many years back and know that others have as well. The only criticism I had was when riding on trails to get to the next...
Ouch. Two different recommendations. Thank you Noel. I did some searching and had read about MightyMax4’s 6x6, but his Alaska Bush Tracks are worlds different than Plastic Super Tracks. Hard to say...
halftracks work great in most terrain ... mud 'snow, etc. i've run them for years on my max 2 . you loose a bit of footprint and traction , but gain some power and they turn easier . i have always...
With 2 of these kits I had all the bends I needed to make my exhaust in the size I wanted. The price was decent for mandrel bent tubing from what I've seen. I made the pipes 16 inches of 1 " O.D. pipe. I did this based on what the mower racing guys recommend. Actually they recommend 12 to 15 inches but 16 worked easier on my machine to get the exhaust to exit evenly. After the 1 " pipe I opened it up to 1.25" O.D. pipe for around 12 inches to exit the machine. The flanges I ordered direct from Briggs Part #692074 this should work on most Vanguard engines.
I had a local welder weld it for me. One note here I tried to have it welded off of the machine but it is next to impossible to get everything correct without tack welding it while on the machine. My first attempt ended up horrible I had to buy more flanges and if you look close the pipes are a little to the right of center because of what I had to cut off. Oh Well live and learn!
I finished it off with 2 RLV silencers for 1 5/16" for modified engines these can be purchased on any Kart racing website. To clamp them on I used 2 piece split shaft collars in 1 3/8" and these worked better than I hoped. I then used a standard ratchet clamp to stabilize them together.
I may attach a metal brace to the engine if it needs it

Thanks. Didn’t consider rubber grousers. Have some horse stall mats if we want to go that route.
