Ah the Pug. Roughest and toughest utv out there. Unless its got a Harbor Freight engine. . .
Hey y'all, so I have this Pug Badlands, I think its an 80s model but I honestly don't know. And when purchased, lets just say that it was heavily customized . . .it has the gondola style bed, the 4 speed Escort trans and the round/square style headlights (if that makes any sense). I know it originally had a Kohler V-twin but it didn't come with it. Does anybody know the model of the original engine that woulda been in this unit? I either want to find one of the original engine models or I would use the model to find out what model EFI Vanguard I could swap in. Also, I know that later on in the manufacturing they switched to the 5 speed trans, does anyone know if the 5 speed was an improvement? specifically if 1st gear is a higher ratio on the 5 speed? 1st gear on our 4 speed is just a little too fast, I'd love a slower gear. Thanks for any information y'all can provide on this rare bird.
