Re: how to make your own longtail? I've got the plans for a weedeater mudmotor. I can email them to you if you want them. But it wouldn't really apply to a convention mudmotor...

Re: how to make your own longtail? I've also been searching hi and low for some plans or detailed pics on a DIY long tail build. If anyone has some info on how to seal the shaft, and detailed pics of the frame I would appreciate it.
I also need info on how the 'clutch assembly' control works. -Matt |

Re: how to make your own longtail? middle bushing reduces shaft whip, helps it from bending.. etc..
yall need to look at the duckhuntingchat.com forum, dont have time to find the thread now, but there is lots of info about home built longtails on there. there is one guy that has a sticky thread, you can email him for longtail plans. _________________ Save your confederate money, cause the south WILL rise again homebuilt 11 HP greyhound LongTail -1436 flatbottom |
