Re: Reproduction Fire Series Tracks - AM54969

Hi,

I would be interested in a track. Any idea on the price point and timeline yet?

Thank you,

Re: I don't think so....

Hey guys, just found JD600's post! Also the link for this was PMed to me and it is ridiculous! Everyone could use a little extra cash but I am not that desperate!
It is safely parked in the garage.
Anyone get any responses from him? Mine went unanswered.

Re: 121 track swap

That suspension must be shorter than the mid 90's stuff that I used? I suggest you find a suspension like I used and you should not have to drill different holes, I didn't.

Re: 121" Track on a Sportfire

You can drill and tap the tensioner bolt hole. You would have to locate or make the rolling tensioner though.

Re: 121" Track on a Sportfire

Wycrumb in the pic at the top of the chain tensioner did you make that or by it. If you made it can you explain in detail how you made it Clay That is a 1980 (2nd Gen) Liquifire chaincase, it is the same as all other chaincases from that erra except the threaded hole for the tensioner bolt and the ...

Re: 121" Track on a Sportfire

Todd, Here is what is going on, I chose the 21 tooth top gear for three reasons. 1. The chain just didn't look right with the 17 tooth top gear and I didn't have a slightly shorter chain 2. The Polaris Indy 440 fan that I looked up used the 21 tooth top gear and a 39 tooth bottom which is what I hav...

Re: 121" Track on a Sportfire

With the information from what I did here I don’t think a 121” track conversion in a 70’s LF or Cyclone would be very difficult. I got parts from I think a ’76 LF and if I remember correctly they used the same chaincase as the Fire Series. This means you should be able to take a fire series drive ax...

Belt Ordering Problems... Beware

I ordered a good quality Ultimax belt for my '80 Sportfire from Dennis Kirk recently. I have always had good luck ordering from them and they are close so I generally get stuff next day. I ordered the belt and their website didn't give me a belt number, I am always leary of ordering parts for vintag...

Re: 121" Track on a Sportfire

Awsome job. I've been wanting to do that to my 81 LF. So if I understand correctly. You used the same front mounting hole. The rear you drilled the rivet out and used the hole from where the rivit was? How much wider is the Deere tunnel? I'm curious about how it rides. Hopefully you get snow soon a...

121" Track on a Sportfire

Hi Deere Guys, Long time no posting for me but here is what I am currently working on. My main rider is a ’80 Sportfire. I did the Liquifire track conversion a few years ago and it worked well but the track I put in it was nearly shot and it is not easy to find a good one at a decent price. There ar...

Wanted - '79 Trailfire 340 Cylinder and Piston

Anyone have a good used or new piston and cylinder for my TF 340 engine?
Also kind of need a decent recoil.

Thanks
