ARGO AVENGER 700 8X8

ARGO AVENGER 700 8X8

In production from 2004 - 2014.


The Avenger 700 8x8 was the first model in the Avenger line-up with an all new chassis design.  The Avenger 700 was in production from 2004 through 2014.  The Kohler 24hp liquid-cooled carbureted engine is mated to an Argo Generation II planetary differential transmission with high/low forward, neutral and reverse that was available in either standard or starting in 2006 you could also get the option of a factory installed 3.3 low gear ratio transmission.  To determine what transmission your Avenger has look to the left of the transmission dipstick, you will see the serial number and if you also see 3.3 you have a low gear transmission, if you only see the serial number your have a standard gear transmission.

The 2004 - 2008 model featured Goodyear Rawhide III 25x11.5-9  2 ply tires which were discontinued by Goodyear and in 2009 Argo switched to the  Argo / Carlisle 25x12-9 (635 mm) 4 ply #127-182 mud and swim tires to give this machine great traction and best in class payload all while providing a swim speed of 3.5 mph.  The dashboard was analog gauges from 2004 to 2008 and in 2009 Argo upgraded to a digital LCD display.   Starting in 2010 the bearings and axles were upgraded to the heavy duty axles and 72mm heavy duty bearings increasing bearing life and reliability of the drive system.  Front and rear bearing extensions, skid plate and trailer hitch were standard.  Options include alternator kit and low gear ratio 3.3 transmission.

The Argo Avenger 700 8x8 was powered by a 4-stroke OHV V-Twin liquid cooled 674cc, 24 hp (22 kW) Kohler Aegis LH 685 and 690 engine and uses maintenance kit # M-201.  Kohler originally designated the horsepower at 26, but under new 2015 SAE J1940 testing standards it rates at 24 and has been reclassified.  It has a load capacity of up to 1150 lb. / 521 kg on land or 1000 lb. / 454 kg on water, can transport 6 passengers on land, 4 on water and has a towing capacity of 1800 lb. / 816 kg.
