Whoops! I missed what you where looking for. I just used a later models operators manual. It seemed to apply to it.

I totally agree it should have just been skined on all sides. The issue is the floor is structural in the center and Is rusted also. My gator was used to push show at 1 time as it still has the plow bracket for a bumper. It doesn't have a ton of hours but the frame is already rusted to hell. I really need to strip the frontend and take a better look. I feel another project coming on.

I have a 1999 6x4 and the only issue I have is rust. The front frame is very rusty and causes some chasis flex. The turning is more about tire pressure then anything. If the front tires are low at all it doesn't turn. If they are aired up with a load I have not issues. I am not sure about the mud but it does ok on greese. I use my gator in large plants and warehouse to move surplus. I would think with some good mud tires it would be just fine.

I am thinking 1.5" tubing and plexiglass. I wanted to see how people have mounted their cages and such.

I see the repair on the floor! I have the same exact problem except mine is not as bad. I can feel the steering / dash section flex when I am driving. The person who attempted the repairs on mine welded plate all along the bottom of the center section. To me it looks like a crappy design on John Deers part. The frame goes from about 3 feet wide to a foot wide at the front section. They should have made it much beefier expecially knowing that people would salt and plow snow. Here are some pics of my 6x4 :)

Sorry no speedometer in the gator but I had one on my phone! official gps speed 24.98 mph. Now the issue is the throttle is sticking. Seems like it is all wired up wrong. I may have to get all new springs although it looks like a nightmare to set correctly. What was JD thinking!

Oh I forgot to mention. Go to Johndeere.com website and order it from there to be picked up at the dealer. The parts where 10 to 20% cheaper that way. Kinda strange but that is the case.
