where are you located Have a tank and other stuff
Well, still working on my rebuild. Replaced rusted corrugated steel floorboards with 1/8" aluminum diamond plate. Reglassing the hood and dash. Rebuilt carb and fuel pump. I still need to make the steering brake pushrods. I know they are spring-loaded telescoping. Does any one know what the compressed and relaxed lengths of these assembly's are? I also am looking for some new wheels. The previous owner drove it with the inside tires flat which destoyed the bead. Also looking for the steering brake pads and seals. I'm located north of Chicago. Thank you, Metalstech

I have an excellent Bush Swamper. What did you need to know?
Hi Pvanlov I was wondering if you have a service manual and operators manual for the bush swamper. I just bought one last weekend and could use some info on how it drives and stuff.
thanks
Hey there Pvanloy, I am a machinist by trade, so making parts is my life. What I could use are the dimensions for the steering brake spring loaded pushrods. I remained the corroded piston bores and resleeved them with 4.625 " OD x 4.5" steel cylinders. Now I am trying to locate new wheels, 8x8.5" 5/4.5" bolt pattern. Almost ready to ride.
I own two of these machines
i would enjoy seeing either some pics or sketches of how the drive train works ...trans, belts chains etc. if anyone of the owners gets a chance. just fun to see the design of how they are built......johnboy va.
