She asked me years ago why do you buy a new sled and bring it home and take it all apart. No problem. I just go to the dealership for a couple nights and take it apart there before I bring it home.

I'm really going to retire from my day job by the end of the year and my wife said we need to set some rules before you actually retire. Told her no problem stay out of my shop. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zambroski Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Just ordered a new lid, some bides and new riser. Maybe I was inspired here tonight? Meh...it's time to get ready I suppose. Been procrastinating on studding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish I had that sort of dealer and connection around me. I would work part time there in a heartbeat. Pulled the chaincase apart and got the skid out of the Indy today. Wow was that a fun little chaincase cover to get off. Actually not bad once I figured out the trick but my hoist was pushing right on the spot in the belly pan that I needed to flex to get the cover out. And what’s with these cut down hyfax? Had a set of red garland 24 series sitting on the shelf so that’s what’s going on. Looks like it already has some sort of tunnel/stud protectors as well? Edited November 11, 2021 by SayatodaU.P.eh?

The short hyfax protects the crossover section of the heat exchanger. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zambroski Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 A little snow motivated me this morning. Got 45 doubles of these fucking PIA’s in and then had just enough self sadism left to wrestle the C&A’s on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are the actual hyfax all cut down every few inches for? Lightweight or some shit? I just put regulars on because I had a few sets laying around. Met up with my shock guy Friday night. He’s going to do the shocks this week. Going to make my own NSP greaseable pto side track bearing plate. Should be real hard. $.20 grease zerk, drill and tap. Boy I hope I don’t mess it up. Also got the call that my new Klim boots finally made it out of the Pacific Ocean and to Sled Solutions. Sounds like he’s finally getting a little bit of his own product trickling in too so I’m going to put his new quick lock setup on both sleds.

The hyfax only need to be long enough to protect the crossover area of the heat exchanger. You can tap the cover by the bearing or install a nutsert from the inside out and install the grease zerk in the nutsert. Change the bearing out to a greaseable bearing or pull the seal off the cap side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already ahead of you on the bearing/zerk deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already ahead of you on the bearing/zerk deal. You talking the notches milled out on the sides of the hyfax. Was told to save weight....right. I use to take them on a table saw and cut a slot down the middle the width of the blade. It then packs full of snow and when you were on a road or something and the hyfax got hot would melt the snow to help a little with lube. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
