lol, no bigyg, just around the trees and brush where there wasn't much water/ice.

It really is, thanks.

I couldn't be there without it. It's a great little machine.

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoy!

I've been temped too, but too nervous. Given it's my only mode of transportation to get up there, I haven't wanted to chance it.

@@kirkvermont7965 I wouldn't do it either. I'm nervous about him Walking on the lake!

Btw nice channel logo!

It sure is.

Thanks. Nice to have some down time to enjoy it more from time to time.

Thanks a bunch. Glad you enjoy!

Ya, too bad it rained all day Sunday, but at least I got out there.

Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoy the videos. My 570 did not have any upgrades done to it, but it is the premium model which has power steering. I think you'd need that with the tracks. I keep it in 4 wheel drive with the tracks on, but it rips in high gear. You do lose some speed since the tracks aren't the same as the tires, but it doesn't have any trouble in high gear running at full speed. I put it in low gear only for big hills or deep snow. So far the Camso tracks have been great. Let me know how it goes for you. Cheers.

@@TheLandAndLegacy Thanks for the reply and information! I will keep tuned in for more great video and to see how your adventures are going. If you have more opportunities to post your Ranger and Track excursions I would love to see them Thanks again.

I always drive in 4x4 with the tracks on, but use both H and L depending on where I'm driving.

If I'm following your question correctly, I believe you do need to remove the bracket to replace a bolt, since as you mentioned the bolt need to be top to bottom. I've personally not had any problems with this bolt but will keep an eye out for it. If it does break in the field, I would expect you to be able to make it back safely if you're careful. I'm certainly not and expert on the topic, but this part seems to be more designed to restrict the over steering with the tracks on, so just don't turn too sharply and I'd expect you to make it back fine.

Great idea for the shocks. I'll look into that for sure. They are great "little" machine that hit well above the weight. Cheers!

This is my property purchased 3 years ago. Long term project to get it to where I'm picturing.

It seems that way when looking back. I had to double check if this was all this year! Hard to see what was done under all that snow, but I know you know ;).

Power is good. In high gear it rips on the road, but I do also haul full loads of dirt up steep hill and it doesn't struggle at all. With the tracks on it's a tank. I'm sure the 1000 would have more power, but the 570 seems to be enough. You would need power steering as well though I think. I have that on mine and would think without it the machine would be difficult to turn around or control with the tracks on.

Nice. Tracks are great, and not too bad to swap. Plus, it's only twice a year anyway.

oh boy.......

I always forget how much of a pain it is. I guess that's a good thing.

I'm 69 years old, the only trick I use is be patient when installing them onto the hub I get the holes aligned then play with the floor jack until I can slide them on. The rest is pretty arn easy you young whipper snapper!

@@chrishill1286 Hats off to you good sir. Plus I haven't been called young in a while either, so thanks for that ;). The job is not too bad, but feels like there should be an easier way. I have an idea to try next time.

Yes, those back tracks are a real pain, but I think I found a better way to install them. I'll try that next time. I am happy with the tracks, they make that machine a beast, especially in the early spring when neither a skidoo or vehicle would be able to get me in, that machine makes it. The gas mileage with the tracks on is bad. I'm always surprised how quickly the level drops. If I'm remembering right it's about an 1/8th of a tank for roughly 10 km.

@@TheLandAndLegacy take those brackets off the track and mount the brackets to the machine first simple i have done it 13 times.

@@BruceLizer Thanks, that is exactly what I was planing to try next time. Glad to hear it work better. Cheers.

Thanks for the tip. I was thinking that too and did a small amount of reving, plus the idle was enough last time it needed a boost, but perhaps this time it needed more. It is much colder now too.

Thanks. Happy you enjoy watching.

Thanks. It's near the Ontario-Quebec boarder, but just on the Quebec side.

Thanks. I appreciate that. Sometime I do wonder if anyone (other than my mom ;)) cares.

Thanks. It's getting there.

Not sure. I don't usually since I'm generally busy, but maybe someday when there is less to do I'll get a setup for that as well.

Lol. Thanks. Someday I'll spend more time enjoying the views than working to make them. I hope!

So far not having AC hasn't been a problem, but I'm mostly in the shade and not trail riding much, so maybe that's why. It is a great size for maneuvering around tight spots though for sure.

Thanks. Should be getting back to it this weekend. Had a couple busy weeks at home.

Thanks. That seemed to have done the trick. Used it a few times now with no issues. Running like new again. I don't think that part was the decompression value. It didn't have any moving parts, and the rest of the kit wasn't for the 261, so I don't think that kit would have a compression value in it. No bigy though. I got mostly what I needed from it. Bought a new air filter that actually fit as well.

Thanks for the tips!

Sure do! Great little machine.

Sweet, ya. I assume you do more trail riding then, so great for that too?

Yup, especially the oil. I think I miss a change I should have done already there. Oops.

lol....thanks, I think? I got a few new parts to try soon. Hoping that will resolve things for me.

I have not. I'll look into that as well. Thanks! I figured since it ran fine for 5 mins it would be something like that, but I'll look into it more.

Thanks, I'll check for that.

For 5 minutes anyway. Lol. Repairs are ongoing until it back working properly.

Need a long term solution. I think I'll try replacing a few parts.

I think it'll be a BYOW (bring your own wood) visit ;)

Which one? lol, but yes, each machine makes a big difference in progress.

@@TheLandAndLegacy the backhoe

Oh yes, the Kubota L2501 with the backhoe attachment is by far the best equipment for what I'm doing, and I would not be able to do much without it. I'm impressed with the strength of what that thing can do.

Thanks. This job seems to never end, which I'm sure you are aware ;).

@@TheLandAndLegacy lol, very aware!

You are right. I have them as well, just a bit lazy with the heat sometimes. I'll try to be better ;)

Interesting. Not I haven't looked into that, or even see that anywhere. I'll check into it. Thanks.

I live in New Zealand, and we get a lot of rain, and farmers use the bolt on duals to save getting bogged down and also give a wider footprint when feeding out on slopes.

Maybe, but I do want water to drain off easily.

Thanks!

The wood stove does a decent job of keeping it warm in there as long as it's not too cold and I keep the stove going all night. Last winter I think around -20 C was the lowest I spent the night out there in. It's ok for now, and perfect for most of the year. This tent is a place to stay while I build the 1Km driveway and then the off-grid cottage. It's working well for now.

Luckily for me, I have many acres of treed land, so lots of wood to be had ;).

@@TheLandAndLegacy that's great, are you in Canada or another country like Washington or Alaska? Do you get lots of snow where you are? And where I am, we do temps with Fahrenheit which is the normal temperature. And I have 79° F

@@TheLandAndLegacy I hope you have a excellent evening sir.

@@shannondaytomasko6691 Yes, I'm in Central Canada, and within a snow belt, so I do get lots of snow up here. My initial tent collapse from the snow load.
