Well my Gator hunt is over! Yesterday I became the new owner of a 2006 HPX 4x4. Its in pretty good shape mechanically and cosmetically. After a day of changing fluids and getting to know the Gator, I'm pretty pleased. Here are some before shots.

2232
2233
2234
2235

You can tell by the tires that I didn't waste any time riding the trails.

To Do:
Seats
Tune up
Fluid change
Paint bed
New decals
Tail lights
Rear Bumper with hitch
New tires
Master Cylinder (Wilwood make a rebuild kit? Deere doesn't)
Front CV boot and knuckle
Valve cover gasket
Choke Knob (Threaded? Deere only sells complete assembly)
Fuel gauge

Anyone know where I can get a used service manual CD?

Thanks guys!

It looks like I'm REALLY going to need the FSM. Tried out the 4x4 today and all I heard was clicking, so I adjusted the linkage and no change.

I'm going to start a build/repair thread in the HPX section. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Thanks again guys,
-Jake
