Maybe swap in a diesel 2C-T engine like CathodeRayTube had been working on a while back? I feel like a diesel would be better suited to handle the added demand of the tracks. You know, just in case you're looking for a crazy project to dedicate a few months and buckets of money to, lol. Haha! Quite...

Tracks would be awesome and there should be bolt on units that already exist. Seen a fair share of vids of those mini trucks from Japan that aren't street legal with tracks on. Some of those have 4x100 bolt patterns and I think some side by side UTV's do as well. Would probably take some fabrication...

Lol, this is not at all what I had imagined you were up to but it's perfect. Good on ya.

Forgot to ask, what kind of crazy contraption had you envisioned?

I use a Motorcraft FL1A oil filter on mine. Ups the oil capacity a fair amount.

Check the part stores or dealer for the exhaust gasket. If there is an old muffler shop near you they might have it.

Well that was a lot of work! Not so much making holes, but taking them away. After really picking at scabs I found that the drivers floorboard was nearly completely comprised of sound deadener and the frame channel. Now it has some serious overkill with a 304 stainless floor! Ice this winter started...

Look like an excellent start! Better get the 5 gallon pail of fluid film. Kidding, kinda.

Yes what a shame! Way cleaner than my nicest runner. The IceHawk could really use the bottom 4-6 inches of this car..

Cool that there's a kit. After watching the vid it would easily add a Snobear feature to the IceHawk (see my post in projects). I'm generally anti air suspension, but humm.. Do it! While it is tempting I did already order the longer and more expensive hole sleeves in order to reach the ice and stay...

I love adjustable suspensions! It's only about 3k to do magnaride shocks/self leveling air compressor in a GM full size suv. Just like air springs, it's not if, but when..

Well here is the half finished project. Drivers side is next. This really started out as a save the car operation due to rear axle lower arm concerns. Figured I would follow through on previous threats to put ice fishing holes in it while strengthening the underside. Took the easy way out on a trap ...

Almost half done, which is when I will reveal. Pretty happy with how it's turning out. Some will roll eyes, or worse. But, those who have seen it think it's awesome. Extremely likely this will be a T4 first.

Got something real stinky going on in my one man hillbilly skunkworks. That's all I have to say about it for now.

Should have been best winter experience with a T4 pictured. Drug mine out last night after its summer slumber and passed everyone after our first dumping this morning.

Take it all! Not worth very much in scrap, around here it's been 30-40 per ton for months. Those alloys should be 13's.
