Can you have too much articulation?

[meadowfield 2,545]

I'm in the last phase of my project and trying to determine where to put the stops for the front end pivot.

The question is, can you have too much front axle articulation? It looks cool and as a driven axle it definitely benefits from all wheels on the ground...

What do you guys think?

Yeah, there you go...    

the tractor is telling you to put the stop right there Mark.

I'm with Craig on this one. Looks awesome they way that picture is.   (Might want to add it to the 2014 calendar thread)

 

 

BTW---is this a build thread I missed, or are you holding out on us?

Stops just need to keep ags from rubbing the hood.

How much twist can the belt take before there's a strain on the pulley?

That's the last part of the design, technically not as much as I want, but with a better tensioner it might work...

Thanks for the link. Great build!!
