    That's a good idea using the mower diff. I was a bit nervous about running the power thru that as well but looks like the locking system will solve that!

    Will you have enough RPM to dive the jet pump? Engine is geared down 4:1 through clutch basket gear drive and gear box. I did a similar thing with a motorcycle engine in a boat and had to delete the clutch basket. Replaced with a chain drive at 1.5:1. Cheers

    • @DktheWelder
      @DktheWelder  2 роки тому +1

      I’m hoping in top gear it will be fast enough , I guess I could gear it up with a chain and sprockets if needed but need to use the gearbox for the wheels as well

    • @ionbusman2086
      @ionbusman2086 2 роки тому

      @@DktheWelder You’d almost want to have the engine going to the wheels first, then have a chain geared to the jet pump. So you can play with ratios, also you can add a way to disengage the pump so it’s not running dry while on land… but awesome work man. Love this idea, and how you approach problems.

  • @AgentWest

    While too small for this 90hp, for a smaller/slower project a cheap mower transaxle will work nicely. Once you take one apart you will see a stack of gears with couple of sliders in keyways on one of the shafts that engage/disengage each set of gears. On one side of that set is a small chain, that's reverse gear. After that there is a massive gear reduction that goes into a differential. In racing mowers that reduction is taken out, or at least increased for higher speed on the output. Also all bronze bushings are replaced with bearings, just for longevity. Speaking of bushings, that is most likely what your differential has as well, so check it out and do put bearings in so that it doesn't chew itself up at speed in neutral/reverse.
    If you get a hydrostatic transaxle, it will look practically identical, but on the inside it would have a small cylindrical wobble-plate CVT instead of that stack of gears. It's great since it's stepless FWD-REV that also serves as a brake for the machine. Not really useful for something that goes fast, however two of those units might make for a neat tank-steering-type system. Just one with no gears could be an interesting way to drive a boat prop.
    As for front, what about a torsion front axle? Low profile, and the whole thing can be pivoted via the torsion spring itself to raise/lower front wheels. Even if the 'torsion spring' in this case is just a torsion shaft with a bracket and conventional spring suspension/lift system in the middle, it should still work nicely.

      I had a lawnmower gearbox in it before going to the big engine and jet drive and had a 15hp motor it worked well but too slow on the water I have a video on my channel. I have also made a mini tank using a transaxle gearbox also on my channel 👍thanks for the detailed comment you have a lot of knowledge on those gearboxes

    • @AgentWest
      @AgentWest 2 роки тому

      @@DktheWelder Ah yes, forgot about that one. That was a really good transmission as well since it did not have that really high reduction on the output. Nice tank by the way!

      Say I just watched your video. The differential. Is somewhat common. I had on a 1974 Tri Sport Alsport. They came with 8hp kholers to 40hp 2cycles Rupps . I put 350 CB Honda on mine 7 inch disc hyd. Brakes. Geared it to top out at 55mph.. it was beyond wild. Flat tracked like crazy.. they hold up well. Not to sure of all the weight you're hanging on it.. But I've found the some of those China quads have F-N--R cast cast together. But I was able tu saw-all the engine from the gear box it was an adult size torque converter style so it has an exposed shat input the sprocket to drive the the quad. I enjoyed your video very much. Where are you located.. I've got way to many projects. 2 of those Tri sports. Once with a 75 hp Polaris with a Hi- Lo-Rev. Of a Polaris 4x4 quad stuffed down in the frome. Then the other with a Honda 600 100hp hanging on the other. And at least 10 pluss other gas powered from mini fork lift off road. I'm getting to old for all these. I put that Honda 350 on the first Tri Sport back in 1974. While stationed in Hawaii
      I've got to go back an see why I subbed . Builder never stop building. Take care.
