1968 Tucker 442 New to Me

Hus-Ski rubbers to the rescue, now remember when you put holes in the new rubbers to place them correctly. And it's better to be to tight than to loose :whistling:
 
That is correct. Beautiful open land, farms, and Hills we have on the outskirts. Heroin epidemic in the inner city. 11 overdoses since Thanksgiving.
 
Elf on the Tucker shelf complete with 12v plug

Cyber monday got some gauges from speedhut.com to fill the holes in the dash.
Click to expand...

fit and finish nice?

I see they have a programable speedo. I like to customize the faces and recalibrate the input to make the 0-20 MPH a little more attractive.

A little tach like that and a 0 - 20mph face..

Hell yes.
 
5 degrees here, but the stars are out and no snow in the forecast till Friday or Saturday. Enough fresh powder( on a crusty base ) up in the mountains to trigger an avalanche risk warning for backcountry users, and two sledders dead in just the last week... everyone is champing at the bit waiting for winter.
 
Got all the new senders in. Oil pressure fitting for old mechanical gauge was a see you next Tuesday. Wish I realized this should have come out when motor was. Drilling into oil passages never awesome.



Very pleased with gauge setup and function alarms etc.

Hey addict, couple questions about your gauge setup.

Could you have spec'ed a different face or font type... could you have gotten a large 1,2,3 in stead of the 10,20,30??

Do they offer scaling 0-140, 0-85, 0-20...( why I ask) I ordered speedometers for a custom IH scout build back in the day and thought the 0-140 would be cool until It set in that a built scout 345 with 36"x14" tires was never going to go much over a 100mph no matter what I did to the engine?

Those were autometer gauges.

I am considering making a custom dash for one of my cats.

Keep up the good work.
 
Tach speedo altitude direction quarter mile time and shift light/rev light one. Oil volt water fuel other all with high and low warning light except fuel low only.
 
Lack of snow headed north riding. Should have stayed home and sat in the cat. Two wrecked sleds. Minimal injury. Did not need the new nh rescue insurance.

Neither are mine luckily. Hoping the Allstate man hooks it up! Season is short out here .

Seen lots of snowcats working hard along the way.
 
Me not knowing anything about sleds, ask, how do you tow them when they do not work? Do you take a piece of rubber belting and lay it under the track? Looked like you had an adventure!
 
they tow easy when they are not wrecked like this. removed the belts and you can move right along. these two only had to go 1/2 mile to the road for pu. my last sled towed hundreds of miles with shotboxes in tow.

icing on todays cake was on the way back to get truck hit warden radar trap on trail. 79 in 45. after my story he let me go. buddy on red sled got launched into stream and we were single digits today so needed to be quick.

another reason snowcats are better. this sport is too costly for short season. live free or die except 45mph sled speed limit state wide. maine has none which is why nh looses registration numbers every year!
