Re: Cool Gator..
yeah, that's the part that amazed me as well. Very cheap for what he ended up with. That's why I try to be a cheapskate and make as many trades as I can. Figure one day it's going to work out to my advantage.

Re: Cool Gator..
I wish there was a Gator forum somewhere, I just bought an 07 TX 4X2 and need some advice on tires and wheels for it, but don't seem to find anywhere that guys are modifying these. BGW doesn't even recognize them as a side by side.
I like it, it has 4 wheel hyd. disc brakes, locking rearend, runs 20mph and fun to drive, but looks goofy with the 22s on the front and 24s on the back with 5" offset wheels in back and 3.5 in the front, also only found one place that has alloy 5 lug wheels that will fit it (12x7 4.5 offset) I'm thinking 24x11x12s all way around, but it's going to bring the frontend out and it's wider than the back now, sure would like to see some pic's & opinions from guys who have them. |

Re: Cool Gator..
get some spacers for the rear to help equalize em a little? Nothing wrong with a little wider in front (for stability) anyway.

Re: Cool Gator..
We have one at work. I find it very easy to high center. They are very heavy and wide....not good in loose material I was wanting a mule or ranger so I found this site...I don't know if they have gator discussion but pretty helpful on the mule stuff etc,
