Not greg b Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 The arms off pre 2020 vs the cattle ass. The rxc still used these. The newer procross arm weren’t that far off vs the old ones. They did front end work 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnstang Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Looks like catalyst has less caster probably helps for the quicker steering with less effort. Wonder if 'darting' complaints will be more. I still can't believe how many people bought r-xc's for their wives and kids. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming the mounting angles of the upper A-arm are the same, the picture shows the Catalyst has more positive caster with the upper ball joint of the Catalyst further from the ski bolt. Even still, it's hard to say because the lower A-arm angle on a procross may be different also, so the frame of reference is kid of moot.

I think the catalyst mounts to the chassis are slightly different. Holding it up there you would have to force the pc arm into position and would probably tweak the mounting tabs. Not sure on the lower arm. At haydays they said they were new arms on the catalyst vs the 2023 procross but didn’t I didn’t ask what all changed.

Not greg b Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 (edited) If I get antsy I might go ride mine tonight. The snow base is building. Have about 3 inches of snow now and it is coming down decent. Should be able to get it out of stage one of brake in at least. Edited January 4 by Not greg b 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couple buddies of mine are heading up to Lake of the Woods for their annual ice fishing weekend and just texted me, "Holy shit - there's a guy out snow blowing his driveway!" I laughed and asked them if the guy has a snow cannon in his yard. They said there's probably about 2" where they're at (just north of Hinckley I guess). I told them I hope they don't need to use a boat to get out to their fishing spots this week .... or back from their spots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonlafon1 Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 https://ibexx.com/adapt_roller_conversion_kit_arc_pid2734 Thoughts? I have not purchased this or have any plans to, but it sure seems interesting.. Anyone have any experience with this? Im not understanding how its a roller set up when the towers touch each side of the roller? Or do they only touch one side ? Or is it only one side of the roller when under power and clutch is engaged? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably will see the same amount of improvement as those washers people were selling to replace the o rings on the big pins. If they made a huge efficiency gain you would have to lighten up the weights. Edited January 4 by Not greg b 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wiped it off with acetone and learned how to take the belt off and put it back on. A lot tighter than a procross in there. Also there was a lot of crap on the belts this year when I washed. Seemed like more than usual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed like more than usual Yes lots of crap on the primary . Entire surface has a VERY sticky feel to it. Belt change was a blast im guessing.. Cant imagine a 125 HP being a belt blower unless shit is really out of wack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smooth power delivery and extremely low belt dust compared to my old Team primary it seems. Have around 2k miles on it. Be sure not to over-torque the cover bolts on the ADAPT if you decide to swap springs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The salesmen would make it seem like a big deal because of some o-ring drag.. oh no a 60 gram weight isn't falling as free as it could... Those weights are pushing with hundreds of pounds of force, 30 grams of resistance isn't going to change anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
