|

Not Sure if I want to do this but I have a UTS can I put a tricycle front end on it. I assume you can swap one out from a regular U. |

Yes you can do that but you need to switch the whole front casting. The front frame rails are the same and the radiator mounts the same. Jeff |

Prsonally I would not change it but that is up to you. One thing I can say is, if it is a straight axle I have switched to the arched front axle. If it is adjusted correctly it will steer easier and turn shorter than the straight axle. |

You also have to change steering box and associated steering linkage. |

Why not go and buy a regular U? It would never look or ride right unless you had 38" rear rubber too. The steering and complete front end is different. |
