Stuff I used in the video:
Lighted Whips(4' is what I used): amzn.to/3tGmAG0
Infrared Phone adapter Android: amzn.to/47AhPve
Infrared Phone adapter Iphone: amzn.to/48tunpN
Wiper Blade Manual universal: amzn.to/3NXMRGD
Bilge Air Pump Fan: amzn.to/3SgRf64
Clear Plastic window film: I used 5mil/5guage/.005" which is sufficient but I would ideally go thicker to around 10mil. The commercially made rear window I bought is around 10-15mil. A thick clear window used on things like Jeep soft tops/convertible windows is around 30mil. You can buy 10 mil at most fabric shops or here are thicker options: amzn.to/3vxc8AZ

After Thoughts about the Video:
Doors: I would actually like shorter half doors. I feel too enclosed in the cab with both doors on. I like to stick my head out like a dog and enjoy the scenery/view what I'm driving over. The material I use is on the thinner side as well(just what I had laying around) so I would get slightly thicker material. I used 5mil/5guage/.005" which is sufficient but I would ideally go thicker to around 10mil. The commercially made rear window I bought is around 10-15mil. A thick clear window used on things like Jeep soft tops/convertible windows is around 30mil. You can buy 10 mil at most fabric shops or here are thicker options: amzn.to/3vxc8AZ
Heater: 1 issue is the humidity that is caused when you hit a snow drift and the snow melts on the radiator. This was easily remedied without a full enclosed cab. I had no overheat issues an the motor actually ran way cooler than it does in the summer.
Tracks: I had full intentions to 100% fabricate my own tracks. I have them 90% sketched and engineered. The frame work is the easy part and could likely be done sub $500 total in materials. The issue arrives when you wan to put rubber tracks on. Buying tracks sets you back around $600 per wheel! I had issues trying to find 3-4 identical old free snowmobiles to harvest them from. That's an entire can of works itself. So I set off to buy a cheap second hand set as new sets are going for nearly $7000. Every market is different and I kept loosing out on sub $1000 dollar deals on tracks. I ended up with these for $1500 after nearly a year of searching. That's less than my parts list to build them (around $2500-3000)

It's been 9yrs now, I'm so glad I found your channel. The things I love, dogs, diy, reuse and repurpose, humour, humility... all at once. Thank you and good luck to you (though I'm afraid it did nothing :) )
-
Always love seeing the clips of you and Ginger hanging out and having fun. It's great to see a YouTuber being a good influence and role model for young future pet owners. Thanks for the great content Moe!
-
Stupid awesome mods man and I had to stop in the middle to send the video to the wife and kids to see Ginger leave that chicken patty alone until you got back! 😮😳🤯. Love everything about the heated track machine with bonus cool AND safety lighted whips! Drone footage is killer. Keep em coming Moe!
-
You did an awexome job with the tracks and Ginger did an awesome job with the chicken!
-
Excellent! You could make a little diverter tube to send some of the heat to clear the windshield so you could keep the doors closed when Ginger is with you. After watching you for years I still get a bit of twinge when I see Ginger running circles around when you drive. Amazing pup.
-
Ginger has incredible discipline, she is such a good dog. Yoda would have consumed that chicken the second I turned my head.😂 You did a great job turning your Yamaha into a snow machine. You and Ginger are going to have many hours of fun with it.
-
You men are gold on YT.
-
This reminds me of my dad. He does cool stuff like this and it always blows me away that people like you and he can think of things like McGiver. Awesome job 👌

Moe, I’ve said it a hundred times already but you never cease to amaze me! My best friend is just like you, you guys can just do anything mechanically! Keep up the good work!

Inspirational as always. Thx for sharing with us. God Bless.

Ginger is more trustworthy than me. I would have ate it then blamed it on a marauding gang of gypsys. I sure do enjoy watching your channel. Your builds and fixes are astounding and why I watch, but your relationship with ginger is icing on the cake.
-
Brilliant mods. Especially the heater. That's a game changer for riding in the cold.
-
Thank you for sharing, always a pleasure watch your project, I learn a lot 👍👍👍👍

Looks like you are on track now . Cab will make it nice .

All leg drive is still a little better than the tracks. Nice job on this mod.

Very interesting. I been wanting a heater in my machine for winter. This is a cool idea.
