i have a 4 wheel steer wizard that i want to convert to a 4 wheel drive rider. but the engine is a 14 vangard v-twin. would this engine be strong enough to handle a varible drive system with 2 transaxles?

Sure and send some pictures when you get that done.

So what will you do for steering?
you can get some front cv axles from a 4wheeler, have them machined down to replace the axles in the transaxle so you will have the steering.
It could work, ive thought about it.....untill i saw a really well setup BP run a track...

If he uses the transaxle off a 4 whhel steer unit they have a really solid knuckle type set up. I thought of doing a monster mower using them thenm putting a right angle gear box above them and a 700 peerless between those turn sideways make couplers tie it all together with drive shafts and only have the one belt to the transmission to worry about. Works great in my head. LOL and has 5 forward speeds and reverse real sweet.
