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!
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
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.
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.
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
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?
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
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
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?
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...
hello i need some help on my mower and when i bypass the starter cilinoid it will turn over but when i try and use the key it does absolutely nothing and i' wonder if the problem is my ignition before i spend any more money thanks
thanks man, the front tires are 18x6.5-8. they fit pretty good with the offset of the rear tires
thanks man, it took some time, but I really like the way it has turned out. it's a good all around offroader.

As watching other peoples offroad lawn mowers they have to much but yours is like perfect
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!

1:1 ratio. same size front and rear. that will work well for all around use
one of my lifted mudding mower update videos has a bunch of info of things that you can do to fix steering play.
Thanks man, this mower started a revolution
Hands down the best mower of the group! Most unique and original. Freaking sweet man!

ya man, the only changes that happen are either replacements, or small improvements. It works really well the way it is

not much at the moment. Concentrating on riding what I have built recently
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.
And to thing that once mowed grass LOL love it great vids man
I really like the BMX front bumper. that's pretty cool
@fearlessfront where did you get your rear wheel hubs
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.
love it trying to get one going thanks for the videos
not sure, like a 7" on the motor and a 3" on the trans
I have a murry edsactley the same as yours and your videos help me allot
When you put a 4in pulley on the rear and a 6in on the motor how do you determine what size belt to get
hey fearless what engine do you recommend for a mower?
Todd does the Skid plate help your belt stay dry? I have thought about doing that on my Craftsman Lt1000
Really apreaciate you makeing these videos I'm 13 and am planning on building one
You're 16 now how did it go?
4" on the motor, and a 5" on the transaxle
Does the exhaust leak where it’s going into the second pipe?
will this work for any riding mower because i might be getting one this summer
Where did you get that exhaust pipe from Tractor supply??
which transaxle you have installed?
Hey fearless Were did toh get your rear pull on your Murray
Hi fearless, I got a 2001 Murray, it has 12.5 horse power but it won't start... Any advice
Where did you buy your tires from?
Great looking ride, what size are the front tires
Could you mount thoes tires on stock craftsman rims?
I would really appreciate you letting me know the size of the front rims and tires
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

This is a good setup!!
What pully ratios would u use if u wanted a good amount of torque and a good amount of speed?
Hey fearless. Where did you get the rubber coated push button?
How do you make that thing go so fast so cool I'm thinking of making a mud mower give me some advice
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
just get it running really well, and give it a tune up. eventually throw some tires underneath it, that will help the most.
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
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
Could you, please, tell me the part number for the rebuild kit for the carb on this mudder.
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
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
when did you decide to start transforming your mowers into romping mowers?
Could you do a quick vid on how you mounted that pulley on the flywheel for the pullstart?
That's a great build
Fearless, if y'all would do a pulling competition, how much do you think your lawnmower could pull without doing a wheelie?
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.
what size of pullys do u have on it
I really love the front bumper
I really think the 4 wheel drive with be amazing! how is that done?
Hey should I lift my front end or leave it same as urs need onist opinion
how would u put 4 wheel drive on a riding lawn 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
Also, if you were gonna make something that was 4wd, would the front and back tires have to be the same size?
it has a metal strap that holds it down.
I like it a lot good job!!!
did you get the handles out of a dodge powerwagon?
if you were going to use the same gearing then yes, you'll want the same size tires front and rear
you can coat the pullys with bed liner and that should cut down on belt slippage
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?
nope, they are screen door "pull" handles from the hardware store
Did you change the size of the rear pullet to make it quicker?
Grant
thnx for the inspiration and ideas
ouch, thats a bummer man. I hope you find a replacement for it
Hey fearless. U should add a skid plate under that transaxle for an addition.
hey im building a mudding mower with my Honda 10 horse how can I make the belt not spin so much
Hey fearless could you do a more detailed video on the exhaust pipe on the murray a how to. please respond
Where do you find all the mowers
what ratio should i use if i have a 20 hp and i want to get top speed
I wouldn't change it either other then deeper tread tire if u can find them
such a sweet machine man ... how many hrs do u think u have into that build?
I know youve said it before, but whats your pulley ratio on the murray?
sounds really good
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.
I have a mower what to do on it first it has a 6HP go kart engine
will you e make a skid plate for your transfercase ?
i am trying to build one to do you think you could give me some tip
So when it flips, is the battery.... alright with that?
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)
Is your frontend welded so it wont move
I got a craftsman lt1000 I put a smaller pulley on it but not sure how to make it faster
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...
You should put some light mesh of some kind over the headlights, would give it a more finished look. Other than that, awesome tractor!
what year is the murray?
Hey fearless I have a question about your exhaust is the two inch pipe a muffler or just a 2 inch pipe?
Brian Agee I think it's just a straight pipe 😉
hello i need some help on my mower and when i bypass the starter cilinoid it will turn over but when i try and use the key it does absolutely nothing and i' wonder if the problem is my ignition before i spend any more money thanks
+cole P No the problem is the solenoid itself or wires connecting to it.
It can also be the ignition switch, just check which has been changed recently, and guess.
cole P you have to tape down the mower deck kill switch, I had the same problem
If you follow your selonoid wire you'll fine a fuse check it
good to know, thanks man
build little covers for your headlights?
lookin good!
Good update!
