My son, being almost 2 years old, enjoys watching this stuff. He likes to help me work on my tractor. He's definitely going to build things when he gets bigger, I can tell. Great build, too.
I legit started making a Murray race mower after watching the John Deere video, it's got a 24 vtwin in it and eventually I'll put a peerless 820 in it,just wanna say thank you for continuing this series and inspireing me
my dad built this exact mower into a race mower in the early 2000s he put a gas pedal and bulit a cool trailer with a seat for us kids! it was a great memories from my childhood riding on it with him and watching him pop wheelies. so cool!
Nice! Mine was a lowered & chopped Rhino lined mid 90s MTD mower with a Briggs opposed twin I/C 20hp. I had ribbed golf cart meaty slicks on the back & red rims & whitewall tire paint. "there's a pic on my page" It was running a comet 40 series cvt to stock belt speed changer then rear end via a vertical jackshaft & pilowblock berrings & a u shaped pice of heavy sheet metal bolted to the frame under the dash. The battery was mounted in board the frame just behind the right footboard & I used its old tierod ball pices as chargeing lugs sticking out the side to clamp Frankenstein cables on😁. Should of ran a belt from jackshaft to smaller pulley on rear end derectley & got rid of the other stuff as it did'nt go very fast. The 20 hp would of been Wild with headers! "also on an old dunecycle or sand buggy too"✌👍
It's crazy that people are putting V8s in riding mowers now. I was scrolling through TH-cam videos a couple of weeks ago and this guy was running a big block Chevy engine in his. It wasn't lowered, but it was crazy fast
This is sick! Planning to get a Craftsman GT and turn it into something like this! You should keep the single broken running light, gives it character.
I have almost the exact same model Murray. I had problems years ago with the 12hp so I swapped in an 18hp OHC and a metal deck idler. She’s been working great for years but starting to fray a bit. Thinking of making her a racer at some point.
Guys awesome video it’s looking sick, I have literally done the complete opposite with my Murray ride on, these things look so much better when they aren’t used to mow haha
Howdie awesome workmanship keep it up your on your way out joined for fun and adventure mighty fine Gentlemen ya got this l,m doing Crapsman with v8 auto lowered and modified a little l,m your Dad's age 66 ha ha still got the kid in me so giving it a shot looks cool 😎 so far from Canada 🇨🇦 SK later keep it up 😊
Awesome, thanks so much for ideas, I have an old Craftsman I picked up for a project like that but was stumped on how to get it low since its so different from everything I see, except this one is pretty close to it
nice im making a racing mower but completly from scratch from two different mowers ive stripped them all down ready for the build when is the next part coming out
Dude I'm working on the same mower if it's the same it's got a good perless 812 I think and I'm running a weed eater 1 8.75hp and a 110cc Chinese 4 wheeler front end set up with no shocks I think it will be fun
After seeing this Ive got the itch now😅. I have a 48" cut Lawn Machine with a 16.5 hp engine that i bought 10 yrs ago sitting in my garage. I traded a wore out 12hp murry and 100 bucks for the Lawn Machine. It was to big for my yard, and i spent more time backing up and going in circles, just trying to mow my lawn. I figured out it was quicker to cut it with the push mower, so i parked the rider. All it needs is a hot battery and a fresh tank of gas. I took a few laps around the neighborhood on it two years ago. Im 60yrs old now. I may not lower it, but my old ass is going to have some fun! Thanks, guys, for the motivational video!
It never ceases to amaze me how people can show how smart they are with building good contraptions only to show their true stupidity by drilling holes in metal pieces using a drill press but holding the pieces with their hand and not secured down. Absolute stupidity!!
I actually have an answer for this. Use a 1 inch or 3/4 straight axle and run chain drive to whatever motor you choose and run used Tesla cells. There's guys on TH-cam who build electric go karts
I dont really trust your spindle mods guy i think that shits gonna snap on a speed bump especially since its tacked on that stamped sheet metal lol and with thoe longer bolts your using for spindles i think that extra weight leverage is gonna be to much strain on the structure guy....

Keep foolin with the gearing till it's right? Those v twins should pull great!

i have almost the exact same model but i went the exact opposite direction and made it a mud mower, this thing is bad ass for sure.
This is an awesome project, & I just happen to have at least 4 junk riding mowers to experiment with! Very cool!
😮
You guys should add a hole in the now top of the transaxle case and pump it full of grease, the will live alot longer that way
Good job guys, look forward to part two!
I've been thinking about doing something like this to one of my mowers and this video was very helpful and gave me a lot of ideas.
You guys are artists. Loved the original John Deere build, super cool to see how organized your process is for making all the cosmetic choices .
You guys certainly put some serious thought into that, thanks for sharing your videos.
Can't wait to see the next video. I have the same model Murray and I'm going to build one similar. I'm putting a 19.5 opposed twin Briggs on it..
Bout to buy a lawnmower for this one!
I used to have one like that. I liked the looks of it. I like the way you designed it and built it. It looks like a racs car. I love it.

Love the teamwork. Fr the definition of teamwork makes the dream work❤
I love the way the rear tires tucked into the rear fenders so I think I might have to do something like that
I wanna do the same thing you did to your john deer I have something that looks like it might be the same model
He was using a John Deere 108
Bro legit though, i'm trying to convince my ma to pay for one if 'd pay for the majority😭
@@jaxsonjjgyou can get tractors for free every where non running stuff easy
@@Huntersprojects oh yeah, i just found one that runs for free on Facebook Marketplace. Thanks.
Maybe he doesn’t want you to mess w/his JD?

Good wholesome fun and creativity! Well job👍
You Guys should build a shed where you can put all of your karts in because in the 3:17 mark the garage looks pretty compact.
It is full of stuff and yes I need a bigger garage 😅
I have been waiting for this mans to post
I have the same style Murray pulley swapped. They are great
So inspirational. This is exactly what I would like to do wonce I find a good mower to buy
Looking good!
iv got one and now you made me want to do it to mine
Awesome, thanks so much for ideas, I have an old Craftsman I picked up for a project like that but was stumped on how to get it low since its so different from everything I see, except this one is pretty close to it
I have just about the exact same one, i got a slighly different hood style though, my transaxle is broken though so ive been at a halt for it
put a turbo on it and have the intake coming from one of the headlights😂
Sweet beans man!
Don't forget the stubby holder aka beer / cup holder nice build guys
Cool build!
waiting for the part two :) i have the same lawn mower.
What lawn mower is it
Really Cool! Great job!
YOOOOOO i have the same mower and im building a racing mower with it rn to also im swapping a 20hp intek v twin in my freind also has the same one
We have a similar setup going on to a marray a little newer though
Also the inteks are junk... blown up one got a nother blown up... Awesome power though!!!!!
@@Erbbrotherswell idk the intek that I’m using has been running for 11 years and still runs strong and has good compression
nice im making a racing mower but completly from scratch from two different mowers ive stripped them all down ready for the build when is the next part coming out
I had my eye on a John Deere but I might have to settle for a Murray...
I bet their legs was all to hell after all that grinding with no pants but I appreciate the video I got the exact same mower. I will try to do it on.
If u were to do this what engine should I use ? And what model is that because I like the way it looks
Great video, I really want to do it myself now. Out of curiosity which engine you put in?
a briggs and stration, it was the motor that came with it so it was easy to use. if you need help let me know I used to work on these things
that thing is sick
Nice build
Good trick for getting the axel extension straight.
Was it tricky to make sure the rear axel is aligned correctly? Does it pull to the left or right?
Defiantly isn't perfect, just go to measure correctly when mounting transmission mounts. No noticeable pull.
Is the transmission designed to be flipped and run correctly??????
I’m having a hard time with this.
Is it a must to lower it? Will it flip over on stock height?
Very cool!
good job guys!
Yall should pull the governors, then they will be wven faster and have more power
Dude I'm working on the same mower if it's the same it's got a good perless 812 I think and I'm running a weed eater 1 8.75hp and a 110cc Chinese 4 wheeler front end set up with no shocks I think it will be fun
Part 2 pls

Thanks, guys, for the motivational video!
I never considered welding bolts on the axle to widen it GOOD IDEA!
It never ceases to amaze me how people can show how smart they are with building good contraptions only to show their true stupidity by drilling holes in metal pieces using a drill press but holding the pieces with their hand and not secured down. Absolute stupidity!!
Sometimes you just got to live on the edge
What will the top speed be when it is done?
so dopeeeeee
Just put a sharp blade across the front and you could mow the grass without a mower deck. lol
Where do you get one i been looking for one so long for the exact same model
Dude, fuck yes!
Thank you!
What type of welder are you using here?
yessir
Waiting on that p2
Is there a 2 part to this
Bro just went reverse cowgirl to turn on Murry 💀💀
Honestly I’d pay good money for a go kart build like this or any other one that’s on this channel
next time you cant get a pulley off drill out the top of the bolt then you can just pull it off
the green one whats it called? i would like to get one myself!
Прикольно 👍
we want more videos with john deere mower
Turn the engine around it’ll save you alot of trouble
can i do the same build for john deere
I like that
Mow cart racing?
I want the tart two
Jakes shoes😂
Why do you swap the transaxle over ? (upside down)?
So the output shaft is on the bottom, meaning your able to lower the seat
@@mycustomgokart oh ok , makes sense , thank you for replying !
Part 2 please
I have a lawn mower mtd 8hp briggs and stratton engine
When will the second part he out
can you shout out my name in next video
No
🤯👏👏👏🙌⭐💯👍👏👏👏🤩
Part 2?
😅 that's what I'm doing with a 93 Montgomery
one day i will fix my racing mower
Where's the other videos?
Butchered the frame just to make it low? That frame is weak as a pretzel now
Very quiet volume
Smash
Hi everyone, any ideas on how I could maybe build an electric racing/ drifting mower? Which one would you recommend?
I actually have an answer for this. Use a 1 inch or 3/4 straight axle and run chain drive to whatever motor you choose and run used Tesla cells. There's guys on TH-cam who build electric go karts
you just chopped up a $400 riding mower. to make a $70 cart??
That's his choice
Go kart*
That’s what makes it funnnn
They only payed $120. for it
I dont really trust your spindle mods guy i think that shits gonna snap on a speed bump especially since its tacked on that stamped sheet metal lol and with thoe longer bolts your using for spindles i think that extra weight leverage is gonna be to much strain on the structure guy....
You cut up a classic all metal Murray how dare you LoL....
Cc
Roughly laid trans..... 😁😆
Listen to your vid!! Cant hear you !,
Not impressed
Your job is your power, go to the game, mow the grass, collect leaves, earn money 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃
