I personally followed the mad mud mud motor plans sold on ebay, and turned out with a pretty good end result. I did notice that bog hog sells a kit that you just have to add a motor to, but I'm not sure how good it is...

If your going to build one you better have it welded to hell. I built one same motor and all the vibration caused my welds to break and everything but the motor and base plate fell off into the river. I even added more bracing than the plans call for and it still failed. Be careful all im sayin if you got the money just buy one already built they have already done all the r&d and got all the bugs worked out for you and they have warranties.
