That's the year we stayed in Armand's cabin with Slushpup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been using that same piece of plywood for probably 5-6 years now i was too cheap to buy another aluminum ramp as I sold my old one, I had the plywood deck from my original setup in my beaner trailer i just sold so I had to get another piece of plywood so I was looking at $100 to build the complete setup. when i am solo I will use it. My sons sleds going in my buddies trailer as I am letting his wife ride it when my boy doesn't go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have studs and two sleds with 1.5" tracks that get jammed up on the ramp. I load up with a fork lift or a snow bank now or else I just bring the trailer. Almost killed myself with that rev arc ramp 2 years ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angry ginger Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Mounted up the GPS, new riser will be here tomorrow and i'll move it to the right a bit to not block the gauge as much when i install it. Cracked the windshield on the kids sled when i had it on it's side and it came off the block i had it on. SMH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a good price, mine was $369 before tax. 1 hour ago, Jimmy Snacks said: Do you have the extension as well? Not needed. You can just about drive on the thing, stop half way, and continue driving up the ramp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
