Why? 2 cylinder is more powerful, easier to start, and generally concidered
more reliable, not to mention that parts are far easier to obtain.
>2. Can I do the electric start conversion??
No problem, Grove has a kit with motor, charging system, battery box, switch
box, cables, etc. You can also just put in the starter alone and leave the
battery on trickle charge when you not using it.
>3. Can I do the 4 wheel steer conversion??
You must have an -A5 then? I converted mine to 4WS, Grove has kits with
everything you need, cost was..... hmmmm, I think $450 but not sure. It is
a total bolt on with one exception. You need to drill and tap 4 holes in
the side of the tranny case. The bosses are there, they just aren't drilled
and tapped. This can be done in place but be warned, there is a gear about
1/16" away from the wall were one of the holes is. Lower 2 are easy and can
be done blind without worry, but upper 2 are a little trickier. Since my
tranny had parts falling out of it I needed to strip it anyway so I did the
drill and tap job, along with a quick face mill for good measure, in a
milling machine, much easier!
