So it has the light weight rmk style track. Comes with a 2.25" series 5.2 track. The sled is marketed as "the most versatile deep snow sled". Edited October 3, 2018 by Tomas.

Your right, its RV antifreeze. Splash brand I've seen is normally washer fluid. I remember guys cutting holes in tracks to lighten em up. Didn't know if the factories were doing it though.

teamgreen02 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Cleaned the secondary up tonight. Little bit of oxidation or glazing on the clutch I couldn't get off with a scotchbrite pad but whatever. Didn't take it all the way apart, maybe next year. Doing the primary tomorrow night once the t60 socket gets here. Then set belt deflection. Do you guys wash new belts in soap and water? Never tried it before but did it on this one. I'll see if I can tell the difference once it dries. Measured the ski alignment and of course that was off. Get to tackle that once everything is back together.

Yessir....Ben is going to ship them to AK in a few weeks for me and after looking around on the old intrawebs for shocks I realized that these are a smoking deal. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f7ben Posted October 3, 2018 Author Share Posted October 3, 2018 Installed STM motor plate on turbo sled. Galled aluminum thread on motor case putting the big bolt in so had to run into town and get a tap to chase them out. After that easy peasy. Really nice piece from STM as expected. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been wanting to take a wheel to mine for years. I never do. Just a good acetone scrubbing. You can eat out of any spot in my engine cavity before the season starts...but none of it is shiny.

When I looked last night some people swore off using it while some CVT shops actually recommend it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, it leaves the smallest amount of residue. I'd be cautious about using brake cleaner on the clutch sheaves. Actually, I'd never use it. Some will swear by it but it's nasty stuff for aluminum. Those faces are more porous than they look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never heard of that before so I just Googled it. https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/597698/Re:_Brake_Cleaner_Safe_for_Alu I assume, like most things, people have their opinions about certain things but I honestly can't see it hurting anything? I have used it on plastic before with no ill effects so I honestly can't seeing it hurting aluminum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
