    Sprocket jumping on brake steer snowcats

    Track tension is your main factor in Sprocket jumping, an old school operator told me he used to adjust tension depending on the snow conditions….depending on your cat, that could be easier said than done…but short fast “stabs” at turning should reduce the number of skips, or go all out with new...

    ST4 restoration of Frankie the Frankentrac

    Very Impressive and I’m taking many notes and really appreciate your detail on this as I have a SnowMaster to start on…but one project at a time and I must finish the FamCat before the SnowMaster…Although I did acquire a motor over the weekend;)

    LMC1200 C6 transmission failed

    Apologize that Ive been vacant on the Forums all summer, but Good Call on the Marine Plywood, That’s what I used on mine! Easy to work with and attach things where ever you need it, and relocate it if it isn’t right.. It was recommended to use treated hardware with it…

    Bombardier Muskeg differential and drive

    Just found this thread…but I had the same thing happen on my SV200, axle broke but I lost all power as It would just send power to the broke axle, you were getting power to the good side because of the fact that yours has the drop axles so it has a gearing factor that allows it more torque and...

    Bombardier SV200 restoration

    If your lucky there’s a grease cylinder that you can just give a couple pumps to and tighten up the tracks but if you run out of cylinder, There’s a threaded jam nut on the front carriage that pushes the front idler group forward tightening the tracks

    Converting to a 5 man cab!

    That is a great Idea!!! And just so fitting you would mention that!!! And the door handles allows me to strap them shut for trailering; seen way to many pieces of equipment with the doors/glass wrecked because the door flew open going down the hwy…

    Converting to a 5 man cab!

    That is the new plan (change order, lol) I wanted to go with an edge style that had a bulb seal attached to it but the clearance on the door jamb is more fitting for just the edge seal! What I wanted to use, but I would need a deeper door jam, I made my Jambs with 1” recess, built the doors...

    Converting to a 5 man cab!

    You nailed it Snowy, Change Orders are a good sign of Adapting and Improving. Many nights I lay awake and rethink my plan and as some experienced Snow Catters on here have told me, I can plan it to death but if I don't get building it, I'll never know how it worked out... So here's to keeping...

    LMC1200 C6 transmission failed

    I’d love to comment with lots of knowledge here, but I figured if I add to the thread someone with more knowledge will chime in..To my knowledge the C6 was a standard automotive style with no difference, My FMX was the same as the Automotive style, but mines in a Bombardier vs an LMC…I was able...

    Converting to a 5 man cab!

    Since the windows came out of the School Bus…so should the wipers??? Tired the Air ones first but quickly realized that wasn’t going to work once we hit the duty cycle on the air compressor…so went the electric route! But if anyone needs a set of Air Wipers for a flat Nose School Bus, let me...
