K well i just picked it up yesterday and its amazing. It was basicly a steel. There is probly like $70 worth of parts to replace in the engine and it will run. But yeah i finaly get to work on it on saturday all day so i should be able to switch everything over to my other frame and get the old engine running. I will post more pics tomarrow if i get it running. O by the way. Who ever has a 1999 warrior can you check the 10th number in your cerial number. I think its a Y if its a Y then this warrior is a 1999. Im also pritty sure that a 2000 is a 0 so im pritty positive that this is a 1999.
 
K well i finaly got it running after 14 hours of strait work. We had some set backs. Fist we trired to switch out the stators on the 2 engines but they didnt line up so we had to switch out the wiering harnnesses. The carrior was stuck on the axle so it took us forever to get that off to replace the berrings. The oil drin plug wouldnt come out of the old engine so we had to brake it off and put a new one on. Couldnt get it started for over 4 hours becuase its been sitting for over 4 months and it was like 14 degrees out. The gas tank is leaking and thats what im working on right now, I think i need a new one so if anybody out there has one that doesnt leak tell me. Ill get pics up tonight.
 
did you have fun riding it today luke? hope you got home alright. maybe next weekend i can ride for more than an hour.. i just had to be home for dinner because my mom made lassanya (i don't know how to spell it) which she almost never makes. the warrior seems really nice though.
 
K well heres some pics of that past two days.

Well i was thinking about making a little profit out of it when im done. My dad told me that i should sell it and make enough of money to pay him back and buy a new one. I still have to get a battery, hook up the lights, and fine tune some things. I was thinking about selling it with everything i have like that the 2 other frames and all the **** from the other warrior i thought iwas going to rebuild, throw on my lonestar a-arms, and some maier plastics. What do you think i should sell it for ill put some pics up when i get it all together.
 
Ben it was so much fun. Eveything worked good i dont think it stalled any more after you left just that one time when you werer by me. But yeah after i broke it in i was riding it so hard. But i drove home behind Mr. Hukills Truck so i could see, We couldnt get it in his truck with his cap one. I cant belive we got it running though. Thanks for helping me.
 
K well i got it all together and im in dept up to my eye balls, I need to sell, Runs fine, still putting on lonestar +2 a-arms, and a front and gas tank plastics by maier, fix the little things like lights and what not. It will be basicly a new quad when im done. Im also in cluding everything warrior that i have. 2 more frames, 2001 broke engine(minimum work), set of tiers rims, etc.(amost a full quad). Looking for 3500 obo thats good considering all the **** im throwing in, its almost 2 quads, if not you could sell everything and probly get 1000 if not more, i just dont have the time. Hit me with a PM if you or anybody you know is interested.
 
K well it never sold so heres whats up. I finaly fixed the wiering harness and got the lights on and got a battery. Now after i fixed all this **** guess what happens. Just my luck the engine starts smoking, and smelling like burning oil. It only smokes for a couple of minutes and then it stops it always has but the burning oil just started so idk what is up with it. But im working on rebuilding that engine that i got witht the bike wich is really a pain becuae i need to find a left centure case whick noone will sell one for cheap and a new cam and its pissing me off and now i have to rebuild this one i think idk for sure yet. well heres a pic of it now.
