My argo makes a really loud chunky noise when i turn the argo ? when i am going straight it seems to be ok but when i pull back on either brake or turn left or right , i get a really bad chunky , 1 big clunk noise here and there ? anyone know this problem? i seems to be coming from the chains from the tranny to main drive axle!

Perhaps you have a bad bearing or too loose of chain??

Make sure the chain tensioners are properly adjusted, or like Jeff said, your chains too loose, beyond adjusting. You may also need new adjuster blocks(plastic blocks that the chain rides on.

Check your chains, if they are too loose they will jump the sprocket. ALso make sure the tensioner springs are all where they are supposed to be. sometimes when they are too loose or springs stretched they pop off and get caught up in the chains = popping or clunking sounds like chain jumping the sprocket to me
