Nice! You inspired me to build an ATV rack for my 1975 Sears ST-12. I made it from an aluminum ladder off of a 1980's RV. Lightweight, Easily removable and plenty of storage. I can mount a 50 cal ammo can over each fender and plenty of space behind the seat as well.
I have an old murray dynamark i believe is what its called. It use to belong to my grandpa and i loved it. Id ride kids around in a trailer with it all the time when i was younger and he knew i loved it so he gave it to me. The motor was tired and somebody robbed some parts off of it so instead of looking it over and making a list of what was taken off the motor i pulled it and put an opposed twin on it like the mud king had on his tractor and i think it may have ripped a couple gears out of my transaxle so it pretty much only has 1st which is a incredibly torquey crawl but i want to go a little faster i just havent got around to looking in the transaxle to see how bad it is. Nothing seems to grind or rub i just dont have anything past 1st gear. I welded the planetary up for posi traction which may have put too much power into a shift fork or maybe a gear shaft and snapped or maybe i sheered a key or something im not sure but the mower has been sitting so long im not really sure what it will take to bring it back. I love the look of the mower and wish i could get a new transaxle or find a fix for mine but i just got a kawasaki eliminator 600 thats taking up my free time riding it. Maybe some day i will get out there and take the transaxle apart and see what happened.
Well, great minds think alike, I mounted a rack off a Chinese 110cc atv to my mid mower! They are great! I have used mine as a tow bar more than a storage rack, before I got a gin pole.
Bro ... you pulled a 90s dad move... oh yes son ill fix it..... one million years later....hey why don't I use that rack for MY atv lmfao awesome ....brought back some memories lmao 🤣
Careful how much you put back there. I blame all the stuff I had on my rear rack for the back flip I did two years ago with my Murray. Doc has footage of the flip in one of his trail videos.
Wow! Big fan of it. Definitely one of the better mods you've done to it. Gonna look great once you pressure wash and paint the tractor. I was waiting for you to jump on it like the sears 😕. Might do something like that with my lifted '88 Jacobsen Homelite LT10. I've done something similar to what you did to a '03 southern starts. Took the whole front bumper, skid plate, and front rack off a '86 moto 4 and bolted it down on the back of the southern starts. Its stout. How's the other transaxle/tires coming along? Thanks for sharing this mod.
Thanks, I think we've got everything in good shape... I won't know until I take it out for some "testing" of course LOL Also, I love bolting ATV parts to lawn mowers as well!
Hey Todd, u have an idea to make a electronic rpm limiter on a briggs v-twin ? some kind of spark cut but i haven't figured out yet. most ready kits i find are for cars or scooters with a cdi
This is almost exactly what I planned on doing for my diesel Wheelhorse. But trying to find a rack that’s not tons of money is pretty hard. I may just end up building my own..
I love the vid and I'm happy you're back to posting, but I just have to ask. Could you do a video on how you mounted your back wheels with the hubs and what kind of hubs you used, or do you have one? My one big question is was your hub made of steel if so how did you weld that to a aluminum axle?
Something with a Gear Drive transaxle, avoid hydrostatic, avoid anything MTD. That means if it has a forward neutral reverse selector, and then a separate speed selector, it's an MTD very Drive. Avoid those. The older the better
the sticker on the back of the seat is amazing
My man! Love AvE
Nice to see that little Murray coming back to life, the rack is a nice little upgrade
Simple, clean look, that wire you used looks great keep them video coming🤘🏻🤘🏻
Thanks!
FearlessFront (Todd Christopher) you need to look into ARC racing for billet parts, I’m looking for an ohv so I can start throwing parts at it 😎
Oh I'm familiar with them, I've got a few of their Billet goodies in my racing mower
FearlessFront (Todd Christopher) kinda figured you did but would be great to see the Murray get some billet parts 👀👀
I have a rack on my mud dynamark and I only use it to lift it up when stuck lol, rack looks good on there!
That's exactly what I use my GoPro mount for LOL

You can never have too much storage!
Yay, Todd is finally making more Videos! Please consider keeping this up, your Videos were always something to be exited about. 🙂👍🏼
Thanks! I have a new project series coming up really soon!
Small block chevy valve springs fit right inside the factory seat springs keeps you from bottoming the seat into the fender
It's nice to see more videos Todd. Please keep them coming. I can't wait for more mudding videos.
Always nice to see new video's!
Keep them coming.
Summer romps I'm sure are ahead!
I have one of those same racks from my old 110 cc Chinese fourwheeler so I have to try this.
Glad to see you uploading again.
Love that your making videos again
Hi Todd, you are one smart cookie!
So cool to have you back dude

Good to see you uploading again . Keep up the good work
Miss the videos a lot Todd, hopefully life has been doing you well and you can find time for more videos again
I think it looks damn good... Great to see some videos from the fearless shop 👍
Its about time we see this thing again.
Bro ... you pulled a 90s dad move... oh yes son ill fix it..... one million years later....hey why don't I use that rack for MY atv lmfao awesome ....brought back some memories lmao 🤣
Looks great mate can't wait to see more keep up the good work mate👍👍👍
love the AvE sticker
Hey man ive been watching you since the 125cc mini offroad mower, are you still working on it, ill love too see it again.
I used a stock front rack from a Yamaha Moto 4 on the back of my Sears. Perfect size
Nice video. The only thing it lacked was a load out. I mean, let's see what you want to carry now that you have the rack set up.
Honestly, I haven't gotten that far yet
Glad to see you’re back man, have you ever thought about making a tracked vehicle?
Yes I love your videos nice to see new stuff 👍🏻
You should add a stearing rack so there is less kick back and less play I added one to mine from a golf cart huge difference
Looks great I think it'll help with storage to!
Loving the regular video uploads, keep them coming! 👌
im not a big murray fan but this one is nice great work
Sweeet vid lovin these vids the word your looking for for them sleeves is bushings fyi
Glad that you are making a comeback you should bring out the racing cart
Careful how much you put back there. I blame all the stuff I had on my rear rack for the back flip I did two years ago with my Murray. Doc has footage of the flip in one of his trail videos.
Looks really good on there man
I think It goes good with the sides

When can you help me build a mud mower? I want to get one built by the end of May
Great idea sir. Love the videos.
This is almost exactly what I planned on doing for my diesel Wheelhorse. But trying to find a rack that’s not tons of money is pretty hard. I may just end up building my own..
Thats what I did on my sears and I love it!
Looks good 👍
Looks good brother
You should bolt a toolbox on it. my mower has a custom made tray on the back with a toolbox
Looks awesome brother it's. Great talk to you on mower outlaw channel live stream
I love the vid and I'm happy you're back to posting, but I just have to ask. Could you do a video on how you mounted your back wheels with the hubs and what kind of hubs you used, or do you have one? My one big question is was your hub made of steel if so how did you weld that to a aluminum axle?
Great job bro
looks good! I like it
I like what you did there. Cool shop, nice SS toolbox! I bet your wife makes fun of the way you say "lobster"!
I really like it👍
Love the seat sticker. A fellow fan of AvE huh?
Not sure, that sticker was given to me LOL
Wedgininja05 AvE is skookum as frig
No dumb area, do not do dumb here
Nice, I like it!
Cony roaders having a mud run this year? Lots of mud this year...
maybe, usually the end of summer/fall
where you been
What size pulleys do you have on the engine and the transmission
You still got that impala?
Do you ever have issues with water in the transmission of your mowers? Any updates on the sears?
Nope, never had any water issues... In the Sears is still the same as it has always been. She doesn't ask me for a thing
looks good brother... #MudMowers
I wonder if RPM matters on a mower trans axle? Like can i go 3/2 on a 12hp rear end with 4hp and a cent clutch?
Teach me Obi!!
Sears update?
Not much to say, that thing is just rock solid!
I'm thinking of making a mud/racing mower any suggestions of what mower I should use
Something with a Gear Drive transaxle, avoid hydrostatic, avoid anything MTD. That means if it has a forward neutral reverse selector, and then a separate speed selector, it's an MTD very Drive. Avoid those. The older the better
I have a mower that is belt drive to a gearbox between my legs and then 5 speeds and chain drive to the axle
Well it sounds like you got a great platform to start with!
Put a flap to try and keep from covering the camera
awesome
👊🏻💪🏻💪🏻

Do i see a AVE sticker on your seat?
Everyone keeps saying that, but I have no idea what they're talking about... The sticker was given to me
