Can anyone else tell me what trans this unit may have and if for sure it would be posibble to get wheel adapters for the skipper as the tires are original but in very rough shape.
Thanks Rick |

I'm looking at getting one of these. Can anyone tell me anything else about these machines? Is the tranny very tough in these? We are going to get it without the motor. Would an kawasaki 340cc be too much of an engine for the tranny? What motor did they originally come with? Any idea on what kind of lube to use in the tranny? I can't find hardly any information on this AATV.
Thanks in advance!!! |
