Looks good the way it is,tire tread is fine,after my first build i learned the hard way aggresive tread will tear up rear-end.I just took mine out mudding with different rear-end and shaved down tread,tires spun alot,but i did'nt tear up anything but the ground.Spun=Fun! We just had two inch's of rain,i love it!
That thing is so awesome! Well crafted. This whole off road "mud mower" craze is really taking off. Good example, in my area of Texas, someone built a lifted Mud Mower and they are selling it for 800 dollars on Dallas craigslist. I would build one myself, but there isn't any place to take one "mudding" where I live.
I really like the exhaust setup you got, I'm gonna look into trying it on my own machine. I think your whole setup is sweet the only thing I would consider changing or adding is a small battery box. A friend of mine had a motorcycle battery explode in his garage and it sounded like a shotgun going off and there was very little left of the battery. We believe it was caused by an internal short in the battery. Ever since I've been much more cautious in the way I handle batteries
You should get one of those 2 or 4 stroke bicycle kits. I'm thinking of getting the 2 stroke one and putting it together. They look like a lot of fun. Cheap too. The engine kit is like 100 dollars I hear.
On mine, there is a massive deck drop lever. I ran a wire from it to the throttle lever on the engine. You pull the big lever and it revs. It went from 4 mph tops to 9. Just a quick mod idea. It would be sweet if you did a pulley swap too.
What dims are your front tires? I know the rears are 20-7x8, but I was curious about the fronts... It has a really nice stance/aspect ratio if you know what I mean. just looks like it's the right size, fits the tractor well and ads function. Excellent job on all your crazy stuff! :D
an old video but it's inspired me to put my 99 murray widebody back together, i stripped it to put the parts on a ford yt16, but i actually miss my murray on the trails
hey fearless! I have a 87 12hp master cut. i was wondering if you can give me any ideas for a mudding mower or any thought on that mower. how could i speed it up with out losing power. 7-speed.
Nice. I just locked the trans in my Murray... Tried to do doughnuts in the grass and got a little carried away. If the tire grabbed before, I'm used to the diff taking over so I wouldn't flip... No diff=flip. I managed to flip the key off before I dismounted... But I still fucked up my dash. I know of a tractor graveyard near here, I think he has a Murray like mine...
What air pressure r u running in those new tire I noticed the didn't flex. Much when it was tipped up. Its just me but I'd have like 2 or 3 psi in them
i didn't weld my front end because i like the twist of my front axle but i have a bolt i heated up with a blow torch and it works well but i don't romp with it really hard. its a LT4000 craftsman with the same tranny in it. it had to start with but with four bolt hubs and atv tires on the rims and a stock muffler should i change it?
hey fearless i recently did a pulley swap on my craftsman lt4000 from a 9 inch to a 5inch and now it wont shift anymore after the first time it just gets stuck any ideas on what i should do?
Hey man see u get that 11hp why dont you get a 18hp twin on there that engin is good i have been mudding with for 3 years now and the lawn more is stock it a great motor man
thanks man, it took some time, but I really like the way it has turned out. it's a good all around offroader.
thanks man, the front tires are 18x6.5-8. they fit pretty good with the offset of the rear tires

How fun looking ! Nice job and thanks for some great ideas !
Thanks man, this mower started a revolution

Man all these years later I remember when this video was posted, I hope your doing good todd I still drive my Murray to this day.
Those trail wolf tires you have are pretty good all around tires. i had them on my fourwheeler and it would grab in deep mud and snow. Good luck!
As watching other peoples offroad lawn mowers they have to much but yours is like perfect
love it trying to get one going thanks for the videos
I really like the BMX front bumper. that's pretty cool
Hands down the best mower of the group! Most unique and original. Freaking sweet man!
Todd and Sean from Redzz 02 and Rob
@@phoenixarizona8441 watching these videos makes me wanna go back in time and be a kid again😢
And to thing that once mowed grass LOL love it great vids man
This is a good setup!!

1:1 ratio. same size front and rear. that will work well for all around use
sounds really good
good to know, thanks man
Good update!
I have a murry edsactley the same as yours and your videos help me allot
one of my lifted mudding mower update videos has a bunch of info of things that you can do to fix steering play.
ya man, the only changes that happen are either replacements, or small improvements. It works really well the way it is
thnx for the inspiration and ideas
I really love the front bumper
Really apreaciate you makeing these videos I'm 13 and am planning on building one
You're 16 now how did it go?
I like it a lot good job!!!
That's a great build

not much at the moment. Concentrating on riding what I have built recently
Great looking ride, what size are the front tires

Hey fearless. U should add a skid plate under that transaxle for an addition.
an old video but it's inspired me to put my 99 murray widebody back together, i stripped it to put the parts on a ford yt16, but i actually miss my murray on the trails
lookin good!
4" on the motor, and a 5" on the transaxle
yes it is
Cool machine
Nice video
hey fearless! I have a 87 12hp master cut. i was wondering if you can give me any ideas for a mudding mower or any thought on that mower. how could i speed it up with out losing power. 7-speed.
just get it running really well, and give it a tune up. eventually throw some tires underneath it, that will help the most.
such a sweet machine man ... how many hrs do u think u have into that build?
I have Sand Vipers 22 inch tall 12.5 wide. I paid $70 for 2 that is $35 a piece they are V tread and i have never been stuck. Very good tire
the Beast is looking good i like the hood bolts lol spike it
not sure, like a 7" on the motor and a 3" on the trans
I'm building one of these tractors now. I'd like to follow you somewhere else so I can update you and get input on my ideas.
@fearlessfront where did you get your rear wheel hubs
Thumbs up man!
lookin good
Todd does the Skid plate help your belt stay dry? I have thought about doing that on my Craftsman Lt1000
Fearless, if y'all would do a pulling competition, how much do you think your lawnmower could pull without doing a wheelie?
You should put some light mesh of some kind over the headlights, would give it a more finished look. Other than that, awesome tractor!
Could you do a quick vid on how you mounted that pulley on the flywheel for the pullstart?
Nice. I just locked the trans in my Murray... Tried to do doughnuts in the grass and got a little carried away. If the tire grabbed before, I'm used to the diff taking over so I wouldn't flip...

I really think the 4 wheel drive with be amazing! how is that done?
hey you should put a chrome tip on the exsaust
I would really appreciate you letting me know the size of the front rims and tires
if you were going to use the same gearing then yes, you'll want the same size tires front and rear
hey fearless what engine do you recommend for a mower?
There a nice off road tractor is a 71 international with a side shaft motor runs to a drive training 2 jackshaft into the training for the rear
ouch, thats a bummer man. I hope you find a replacement for it
you can coat the pullys with bed liner and that should cut down on belt slippage
What air pressure r u running in those new tire I noticed the didn't flex. Much when it was tipped up. Its just me but I'd have like 2 or 3 psi in them
How do you make that thing go so fast so cool I'm thinking of making a mud mower give me some advice
Hey fearless. Where did you get the rubber coated push button?
Check out my twin swapped offroad mower!
ua-cam.com/video/Qr15Odqym3Q/v-deo.html
When you put a 4in pulley on the rear and a 6in on the motor how do you determine what size belt to get
Where did you get that exhaust pipe from Tractor supply??
Did you change the size of the rear pullet to make it quicker?
Grant
Hey fearless Were did toh get your rear pull on your Murray
never really needed a shovel, if we get stuck, we just push or pull them out... fallen down trees, we just go around them. it's worked for us so far.
which transaxle you have installed?
I wouldn't change it either other then deeper tread tire if u can find them
will you e make a skid plate for your transfercase ?
will this work for any riding mower because i might be getting one this summer
Could you mount thoes tires on stock craftsman rims?
how did u mount the fender flares like what hardware. I love that idea im gonna use the same thing u did if that's ok
when did you decide to start transforming your mowers into romping mowers?
nope, they are screen door "pull" handles from the hardware store
Very cool, currently building a mud mower with my lt1000 craftsman 17.5hp! Love the vids
CNC Workshop I hope you upgraded to 2nd gen steering
it has a metal strap that holds it down.
Does the exhaust leak where it’s going into the second pipe?
Where did you buy your tires from?
What pully ratios would u use if u wanted a good amount of torque and a good amount of speed?
did you get the handles out of a dodge powerwagon?
Hi fearless, I got a 2001 Murray, it has 12.5 horse power but it won't start... Any advice
I think it would be cool if you would get some black tint on the headlights! They make a spray paint for it to just smoke them a little bit.
You should get reverse lights to. When your on a night romp they can be usefull.
i didn't weld my front end because i like the twist of my front axle but i have a bolt i heated up with a blow torch and it works well but i don't romp with it really hard. its a LT4000 craftsman with the same tranny in it. it had to start with but with four bolt hubs and atv tires on the rims and a stock muffler should i change it?
Next maybe a video on the Craftsman crawler and/or Wizard maybe? What's the plan for those?
If i want to do a pulley swap on a 20 hp what is the best ratio if i want it to go as fast as it can
Hey fearless could you do a more detailed video on the exhaust pipe on the murray a how to. please respond
I know youve said it before, but whats your pulley ratio on the murray?
Hey fearless I just got a 312-8 wheel hoarse Turing it into a muding mower just like your suburban but has a 10 hp kholar any tips (my first build)
it looks so savage from the front
You should make a front wheel drive rock crawler
hey fearless i recently did a pulley swap on my craftsman lt4000 from a 9 inch to a 5inch and now it wont shift anymore after the first time it just gets stuck any ideas on what i should do?
Did u do a pully swap
Hey man see u get that 11hp why dont you get a 18hp twin on there that engin is good i have been mudding with for 3 years now and the lawn more is stock it a great motor man
build little covers for your headlights?
