Gold Member Kivalo Posted November 4, 2023 Gold Member Share Posted November 4, 2023 The interior diameter is 98 or 99 inches. Anyone have one? Is there any fitment issues with modern sleds? How's the overall quality? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold Member Kivalo Posted November 4, 2023 Author Gold Member Share Posted November 4, 2023 Yeah that's what I always thought, my current ones are 101 but even the Nitro is 98 or 99. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that you do give up some width as soon as you put a top on an open trailer. Probably around 4" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DriftBusta Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Holy shitballs trailers have gotten ridiculously expensive. Brother and I bought a 7x14 v nose 10-12 years ago to just haul the sleds north with, for 3 grand. I bet its still worth 5 based on what they want for a new one.

Just sold a 2013 Mission Hybrid for what I paid for it new. So yeah the same model new is twice what I paid back then. Sleds are frikkin crazy too.

Doug Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 I have a Triton Elite 101 with a cover. Inside dim of the cover is 99.50". Two newer sled will fit but there's not much extra room. Also plan ahead if you're thinking of getting a longer track sled. I bought 12ft long trailer because I've owner 144 Assaults in the past. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold Member Kivalo Posted November 4, 2023 Author Gold Member Share Posted November 4, 2023 @Doug you ID is about an inch bigger than the Blizzard I'm looking at. I really like the nose of the Bkizzardd, seems to give me a lot more usable room for things a lawn tractor, atv or whatever. I'll prolly pull the trigger on it.

Gold Member XCR INDY Posted November 5, 2023 Gold Member Share Posted November 5, 2023 My 12’ hybrid Snopro is 98 1/4” inside. My Matryx and wife’s new g5 Ski doo are both 48 inches wide overall. So no worries, but add some wider skis or adjust the Ras x Ski doo skis to their widest position and it will get pretty tight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that's my worry. I have a 22 XCR and I bought the Poo Gripper skis for it and I'm looking for a 2015-17 500-600 something as a back up. I dont wanna fuck myself. But I think we can figure a way to make it work if Ibha e too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my case where I have a tilt top you have the support brackets to drive around to compensate for. Being a fixed top for you you won't have to compensate for that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had Mohawks on my assault...I would load the buddy sled first and ride up over the ski just a tad...it's plastic on plastic no worries.

A trick a buddy would do is load one sled and then put a 2 x 6 down next to the ski and load the 2nd sled riding one ski on the 2 x 6. That raises the ski up on the 2nd sled so your not ski on ski where the overlap is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old man did that same trick 50 years ago when his FA400 wouldn't fit on the trailer with the TNTs lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same result 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold Member Kivalo Posted November 24, 2023 Author Gold Member Share Posted November 24, 2023 Just pulled the trigger on this. A standard height, charcoal color and with a man door. Added the sled glides and traction mats, too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
