Greetings.
last year I got a hold of an old LT4WD. To say it had a hard life is putting it mildly. It came from a farm where everyone beat it and never maintained it. I nursed it back to running condition and enjoyed it for the summer. It is a great machine, and I can imagine how it could have been when new! Anyway, when I was plowing some snow I got the ominus CLUNK. I pushed it in to the shop and tore down the top end. The connecting rod broke. and I need a head, cam , valves etc. Oh yes the clutch slips too.
Needless to say the engine is Junk. Do I have to find an engine for a 1987 LT4WD or will a different engine or different year be able to fit in this chassis? Since there is no chain drive on this machine I would expect it may be a rare thing to come by?
Thanks
Steve
