More Information On Yeager All Terrain Tracked Vehicle
Your readers may recall the story in FARM SHOW on my home-built all terrain tracked vehicle that I call the "tank" (Vol. 25, No. 1). I built it with ordinary shop tools and low-cost, readily available components, which kept the cost way down. It rides on 11-in. wide, 8-ft. long rubber tracks made by cutting the tread out of a pair of 46-in. rear tractor tires.
  The "tank" is powered by a V-6 Chevy gas engine and has an automatic transmission and transfer case. Air suspension is used on the main axle and on the cab, and it has air ride seats. It rides great for a short-coupled machine. The machine is equipped with differential braking so it will turn on a dime, and it can go up to 40 mph. It's a lot of fun to drive, day or night, summer or winter.
  Readers can contact me, or go to my website (www.kisoffroad.com) for more information that will help build your own for as little as $500. (Alec Yeager, Box 504, Hendley, Neb. 68946 ph 308 265-7466; E-mail: yeager@atcjet.net)
