Default Snowhawk shop dolly

Thanks

I posted a couple if pice in the snow hawk pics and mod thread ! That might be a start. The ski dolly can be ratchet strapped down and you can load with it .

I built one out of 1" x 2" steel tube. I bought a set of wheelbarrow wheels at tractor supply. A few bolts and just went to town one night with a welder. I use a piece of pipe to hold the hawk in the air I have some pics I'm still working on getting posted but I'm also trying to take my dolly and make it into a way to unload the hawk out of the back of a truck(one of the hardest things to do).

Nice job on this one General007 ! That'll last you about as long as your Hawk which is about a lifetime !

Here's the front dolly I designed in '08. The ski is off but you can ride with the ski on. The handle can be taken off once you pry'd it on.

On my to-do list # 59 is updating this design into something real easy to build to bring the cost down quite abit and add a locking device so you can use it to drive around your 'hood, parking lot or up the bare trail with your fanner in May or June !

Well looks like I finally got at priority #59 here and here's the result below. Same Idea as the other one up there but this one is ready to take some serious spring riding up the logging road ! I designed it so you can take the handle off of it and lock it in place on the ski adaptor with a 7/16" Pin. The plates are 3/8" thick on that thing !!!

Can be used for virtualy anything, loading your hawk up the trailer, moving around your shop, go to a drag race in the summa or just drive around the hood to show your neighbour how cool your Snow-Hawks is. It keeps the snow trackers about 1" off the ground and the tires weren't inflated enough so 1-1/2" is probably the clearance a guy will have once they're properly inflated. I know the angle on my ski is wrong, my rubber insert is screwed waiting on another one to show up...

Sorry, will only fit the set-back ski adaptor... I haven't look at fitting the other ones...

This thing needs a custom paint job now, what do you think Thunder, Neon Green, Electric Blue or Barbie Pink ?
