ABSTRACT:
A self-propelled all terrain vehicle is converted to amphibious operation by means of an amphibious conversion kit that provides rear axle extensions to mount outer rear wheels that dualize the rear wheels, and radial paddle elements on the extensions between the dual rear wheels. Over-size tires on the dual rear wheels and on front wheel means of the vehicle provide flotation means capable of supporting the vehicle and a desired load in water.
