Belts and Bogs on a mud mower, Its time for a new idea, The Holey Pulley

- Last Tractor major of the year 2019. It became apparent real quick that belts and bogs don't mix. It's like oil and water. I have been doing some research on this nasty problem and came away with if brake rotors can do it so can a pulley. Now go push a wall of water.

This is a FREAKING awesome video
You are the man
That's some freak'n footage my Man!
Paulie, respect.
Pull back on the clutch! Lol! In all seriousness, I think controlled belt slip can be advantageous in certain situations. But the holey pulley seems to work for wet stuff. Perhaps I will add it to the repertoire of tricks, I don't tend to play in the mud as much as the rocks and sand.
The testing that Ive done the traction increase is noticeable even in a dry belt scenario.
DEFINITELY gonna do this
Let me know how it goes.
Interesting, I bet it sheds off debris and water much better now. Still in my opinion nothing beats shaft drive 😎
Testing was positive and your right nothing beats a shaft drive.
Love it 😍
Now you cant say I never helped you with anything ;)
@@MrStudabaker you've got me thinking now. At the moment I've got a 30" belt. Not alot of room to add any idler pulleys. Working on moving my clutch piviot point back some to be able to run something larger then a 4" gear box pulley so I can upgrade to something larger then a 3" Transaxle pulley for slippage issues. Now you got me thinking about something like a centrifugal clutch on the gearbox and sprockwt on the transaxle. Still use my clutch/beake pedal as a brake and use the foot throttle to engage and disengage the centrifugal clutch. 🤷♂️
@@HillbillyOffroading Best check on how well the centrifugal clutches work when wet.
@@MrStudabaker people are constantly taking about it but no one seams to have done it. Wont be going that deep in water. I should have plenty of clearance with the 28s.
I really want to get into this
They are 1/4 scale tractors. All the rc fun stuff and the bonus of driving them. I'll take two please.
@@MrStudabaker 🤣
What tires are on the rear of the cadet? Thanks love all the videos.

I’m going to try that on my wheel hours
Nice, make sure to remove all the burrs.
Wow
IKR
What is the smallest pulley you would put on a mudmower?
For doing mud slurry. 7-5's failed. Maybe 8-6 with a holey pulley on a 1/2 belt.
If you drill even more holes, like every 1", might work even better!
Thanks for the note. You know 16 to 20 holes works real nicely and if you drill use a 3/16 bit.
So what the science behind this kinda wondering how this work the way it does
Think hydroplane. Belts and slurry is racing slicks and wet pavement.
Someone help me here cus I’m the only one that doesn’t understand. you put holes in the pulley on and run a cogged kinda style belt? I’m confused on how it works I guess,
Its all about the pulley my friend.
@@MrStudabaker ok..... so the holes let water out? That’s gonna be my guess since that wasn’t an answer and just assume that’s a waste of time lol 😂
Ouch sorry its a wast of time for you. Do some research as did I for four months straight on this subject.
Do the holes help the belt dry? Or?
Reduces the hydroplaning.
Your pretty lucky there aren't ya you don't even need to worry about this sort of issue
hahaha, hey now, just trying to make it fair. It was so painfull to watch in person. Thought about this for a very long time and had some positive test results so thinking "send it".
@@MrStudabaker for a title?
@@WoodysPerformance101 the holey pulley
@@MrStudabaker haha I like both of them
I'll be sure to tell the boss ;)
Before I even watch this ive been thinkin chain drive for my build
Not a bad idea I like it, but only if you have a belt for a clutch.
@@MrStudabaker yea somethings gotta give somewheres so it don't blow up on ya I suppose. Centrifugal clutch work when wet? Keyed shaft and sprocket, chain tensioner, to rear end? Yea...risky business there possibly. Hex shaft and sprockets with set screws somehow can swap easy
@@kevinpeterson3096 Idk never researched centrifugal clutches in the nasty stuff.
@@MrStudabaker 🤔
Torque converter maybe better. Works fir snowmobiles lol
