What parts do I need to get my "new" gold pan running?

Post by e123 »

I just picked up a gold pan from a guy on craigslist for $40. I want to get it running again but have no idea what parts I need to swap out. I have looked around on this site a little but was hoping to find a full list somewhere so I could get started on my new project. It looks to have all original parts on it but I want to replace as much as I can with new stuff in case I break something and need replacements. I'm also missing a rear shock so if somebody can tell me what shocks fit that would be great too. Thanks!

you can take the old shocks, soak them in greased lightning to take off the anodizing and then polish.....

Why dont you post a picture of what you got, then we can tell you what parts are still available (like front arms, C hubs, steering arms, front bulkheads)....

Craigslist for $40...was it out of Phoenix, AZ (i think).

It was local here in FL. The guy had it listed for $50 and I talked him down a few bucks. I'm going to get some pictures of it at some point but I haven't yet. It still has the steering assembly, all the original suspension parts (except a missing rear shock), and the original wheels. It also has a 6 gear transmission.
