JUSS10 250 #4 Posted July 14, 2014 I know a local guy that has the same setup. I didn't believe it till I saw it myself. He told me the same story. Dealers provided a conversion kit of sorts that would put a gear shift trans on it. It looked well done so I couldn't argue with him. Glad to hear there is another out there.

Hammerhead 816 #5 Posted July 14, 2014 Hey Mike that is a nice little RJ. WH did make several conversion kits for swapping several different transmissions to update these old machines. I have some paper work on the conversion kits. I will try to dig them up. Did that have a gas tank stand on it? Thanks for posting...KJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
