Great tip! I haven't had a prob with my atv but I remember when I forgot to change my antifreeze in my 1958 Ford panel truck. It had too much water in it and it froze. Luckily it didn't harm the block but the truck was over heating on the way to work. The hose were solid with ice. Stupid mistake.

The spindles were bad on mine too, it was all over the road. I think back now, if I had it what an easy fix that would be.

You know it would be an expensive fix, but I loved that old ride. The guy that had it before me had done the conversion to the chevy engine. He had taken that old truck all the way from British Columbia Canada to the Baha in Mexico. When I bought it, I was living in BC, and we saw it in a car lot late in the fall. Here is the kicker(relates to the thread) when we saw it the block was cracked because of no antifreeze in the cooling system. the guy figured that he didn't need it living in southern BC. We bought it cheap, because the car salesman figured the engine was scrap. Off we went with our prize, and now what to do? An old retired woodsman supplied the know how. We took cedar shakes and drove them into the cracked block. when we put coolant in the system, the water swelled the wood, stoping the leak. We drove that old truck all summer and then some without a problem. I ended up trading it for a motorcycle. Off went our truck, never to be seen again.
