He used a double vbelt off the engine to drive a small 7gpm pump. later he used a Dana pump thatwas 12 gpm cheap and easy find after Dana closed its plant here. he got 12 inches clearnce off some buckshot mudders, but made it too low speeded. he went up a few sizes to small combine tires. If i can locate this machin ill get a pic. he moved to a new house in Alabama. he did a 53 Chevy truck the same way. One problem with flippin the front axle over is that the ring gear wears from running revers all the time. but it only took 2500 hours to wear out. Thats longer than alot of these FMC skidders undercarriages last.Plus its 20 bucks to replace. Ins some rear ends the ring gear can be mounted on the oposite side to make up for this. Well Good luck
