looking for help

**shasty** · 03-08-2010, 07:37 PM

I am wanting to build a hydraulic driven 2 track vehicle basically take a small 4 cylinder car strip it remove the under carriage bolt a hydrostic trans out of a swather to the 4 cylinder and drive sprockets attached directly to orbital motors I figure the vehicle would weight approx 1500 lbs I have been playing with the calculator the only info I have so far off the hydrostat is 4000 psi 22-25 gpm I think it will work what do you think

Does the swather engine still run? Maybe think about going at fromt he other direction and see what happenes. Strip the swather frame and put the car body on it?

What tracks do you have access to? I can allmost guarranty you will weigh more than 1500.
