over the years ive pulled quite a bit of things with my trx 300fw, small trailers, deer, logs, and even 2 other atv’s at the same time but nothing that put to much strain on it.
now here is my odd idea. i can get my hands on another 300fw with a bad motor really cheap and im thinking about using the front and rear diffs, axles and transfer case to make a 4×4 garden tractor. my plan is to lock the transaxle from the tractor to make it a posi and mount it sideways. then drive the transfer case and rear diff driven by the transaxle. what im not sure about is if the trx parts will handle the low speed strain of plowing snow, gradind rock and dirt and pull a good amount of weight here and there.
thoughts and opinions please? i realize there are other ways of making this a 4×4 but just curious since i can get the parts cheap. thanks for your time and experience.
