Lets see some summer maintenance projects! Snow will be here before you know it!

Here we have a new axle from Dan at Snow Cat Service as our machine had a broken one. Perfect size and fit bolted right up.

Going through tracks at the moment so for replaced 250 bolts or so. All new bogie rims/foam filled tires, wheel bearings. New stainless exhaust.

Machine headed to body shop for underside prime/paint next week.

Looks like you are busy!

While I no longer own my SnowTrac, when I got to the underside of it, I ended up spraying it with a 2-part epoxy product that was similar to Rhino-Liner used in pick up truck beds. I highly recommend that type of product for the underside of any snowcat.

well, I don't have much for photos, but summer for me is NEW project *rough in* time. I try to knock out the big stuff over summer so when the more seasonably comfortable weather rolls into WI, These projects can start and run reliably.

If you squint you will see in this post,

a photo of a minimec injection pump.
disassembled and rebuilt with some new parts.

following that is the photo of a:
T-18 transmission that is dumped out and remanufactured with some T-19 parts.

Photo Three:

Photo four:
A model spryte clutch, steering masters and slaves. <PC term for master slave is? >

photo five:

photo seven:
