  1. Well.. I could make an adjustment to the C... I think I know where your going, we only use the good shit at the Ranch! Just a drop will do ya!
  2. Well.. I was thinking of a rip with ya, but now I’m not to sure?
  3. Awesome TeamG... everything makes total sense, I will rig up some rubber on the top of the rails to keep things snug and no rubbing. Thanks Boys Pics will follow as season get going. 👍🐸
  4. Thanks Zam... going to get a set around me and fool around with a couple of locations. Teamgreen...thank you for the pic, is that hole directly behind the inner bogey? Did you have to remove the wheel to slip bolt in or will it slip in between the wheel and rail? Love how you protected the top of the rails... awesome! sorry for all the questions, they are the same brand Duraflex cables as Zambroski mentioned right? Ya I am not overly concerned about sliders, keeping coolers cold most important. ‘thanks everyone... I will play around with this setup suggested, I will use the top ones to wash my wingers goggles I guess.🤣 🐸
  5. I will take a better pic of that area of the skid when I get back into the shop.
  6. I would be most comfortable to not hang them then.
  7. you see the two large cut out squares just behind the last outer forward bogey wheel, you think that’s enough meat strength between the two holes to hold a cable and not cause damage? that is my preferred location, lots of rail past to hang on for off use.
  8. I will look closer again... the other consideration has to go to the hang on rail for off use staged spot. you ever have any issues with extremely hard impact to the cable at the mounting collar? any pictures on a RR rail would be awesome. thank you! 🐸
  9. Morning Boys... movie night last night. I have been eying those sliders, I got to burn through the ones on and another on standby, so I should need them next week. Forgot... yes, mostly needed to spray heat exchangers to keep motor cool. Not sold on the ski type for drag or the hang me downs from the A-arms... they look fudgly! Hear ya on the cables... they seam to J after time and do nothing. thanks Brother. Agree.. I really like the BRP off the top skid wheel, they are slick, won’t fit my application. 👍 Nice Skid... my RR skid rails are totally different. I have inner rail wheel right where you mounted, and I have a shit hole of cut outs on mine. I looked everywhere to mount ruggedly.. and as Corner said I hate to drill into the rails. Every time I go to see how to put on a cable I feel the spray will be too far back, and I will only wash the goggles of my wing man! thanks Zam. Enjoying the place here. 🐸
  10. Nope... It’s mine! It’s almost ready... you will be rolling coal around the Corner soon! 🐸
  11. I carry spares in the trailer... not sold on shit hanging from my ski’s... any experience? I hear ya! not sold myself, they should work in theory, they should reverse well and they hide really nice. the spring scratchers on the rails dig into (rub) in the rail, plus the RR is a 129 with the double bogeys on the outer and directly behind another set on the inner in addition to all the holes cut on the side of the rails not a lot of mounting points before they are hanging behind the idler wheels. thanks for the discussion
  12. Thanks Jerry... you have any experience with scratchers on the ski’s??? Concerned it will add more drag in the steering effort?
  13. Did some research and you are right! Here he is at the Polaris “Star” Marketing Graphics and Design awards.
  14. I had long hair also back then, so I couldn’t see shit! Finally got a hair cut and bought the 01 ZR800LE... felt much lighter then, I think it was the short hair. 🐸
  15. I tried the regular further back but the sliders behind the bogies get smoked... yes, in slim picking crappy low snow/ice, that’s a 1.60 Cobra. I like late season riding, all the Ricky Racers blew their load and the trails are quieter, accommodations are easy to get, and days are much longer. But yes.. that’s why so far forward. By the way, is this the right sub forum for technical discussion on this sight??? the Brand sections are super quiet. thanks for the feedback Zam!🧤 🐸
  16. Can’t believe I rode a 1996 Polaris XCR fast but gay! Found pic online This was it... WHAT WAS I THINKING!
  17. Really Nice! Wow that would be a treat to work with.
  18. Get your heads out of the gutter... need some feed back on a new scratcher rigging I worked up. I need to get spray at the most forward bogies and skid. I had the sprung wire type on the foot runners, they were okay but get bent up bad in the fast rough. rigged up a set of cable scratchers, tapped a set of billet knobs if found at hardware store attached to a carriage bolt... so now with only gloves needed I can loosen to lower and raise. I can also make the angle sharper in the down position, but keep in mind the skid floats so the ground clearance constantly changes. Thoughts?
  19. Agree with it all Zam... for the oncoming if I can and I am lead, I will give you info on what is coming your way in regards to my group or if you have a uncommon hazard coming, I will try to give you a slow down warning. the trails are not race tracks... there are families out enjoying the sport as they rightfully should. P.S I am not occasionally deaf, just slower then most.🤣 🐸
  20. I am on occasion deaf in both ears... so please take that into consideration when you pass me!
  21. I think its the Responsable thing to do if you are of the skilled ride status. being sober and riding at night with a head light on are also a good idea... but what do I know?
  22. Nice Equipment! Towed a dead cow out off the back 40… smooth a silk! does that count?
  23. Thank God! I got stuck on the Freak train trying to get you boys back... but it derailed and sent me flying over here! You probably would give them the middle finger salute if they came calling. Nice to see ya all... looking forward to more sled neck craziness. Cheers Boys! Cube 🐸
