A simple come-a-long and a good eye bolt into some garage joists and BAM! I love this. I’ve got a lift too but I this thing is an awesome way to work on the skid. Thats how I do it too. I like having two sets of hands doing track swaps, just makes it routine and quick. 2 hours ago, Highmark said: Just got my hurricane flasher on with anti lag. Studs, 4th wheel kit, scratchers, clutching, exhaust and pilot skis yet to go. Very nice. That thing oughta rip your arms off 32 minutes ago, Arctic Cat Destroyer said: Not your VAG...

Jay graciously hooked me up with a slightly used Pilot 5.7 to replace the one that I destroyed on my old sled last season. New sled is running the stock Artco shit skis .

Its for my wife to ride and the groomed spur trail is on the the other side of our lake so the finger is fine. I also have a 136 2 inch that I'm saving for a REV project next summer.

I bet I only get 3-4 100+ mile days in a season though. And at least one because I came home to punish some chili and went back out again later!

Plus on an XP/XS they are a workout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
