All things considered, they are pretty durable sleds and unless it was really pounded on, should be pretty straight yet. Beig a sno-x sled, you'll definitely want to re-build and re-valve the shocks and go through the skid while it is out for shocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen the sled but the owner said that the suspension has been all redone and motor rebuild. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that would seal the deal for not buying it for me. Just buying someone elses junk imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not very successfully though. I think my "ball" was a bit too low. I'll up it next week. Good sleds. I think 4K may be a bit high now. And did I read fresh engine and suspension? That's weird. On a sled that "hasn't been raced"? Hmmmm.... I'd have to look at it and make sure some retard with a set of vice grips and a full set of adjustable wrenches wasn't working on it for sure.

As long as it's new enough and I've worked the price right...I'll make the trip. Caught two flights to pick up my last Vette and drove it home. Got home exactly 24 hours after I left. 6-6. That shit is exciting to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Contributing Member Jimmy Snacks Posted July 23, 2017 Author Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted July 23, 2017 So the guy with the Doo responded....I asked what had been done to trail convert it and does it run on pump gas..he says only the 10 gallon tank and yes on pump gas but needs to be mixed which I knew. Nothing about jetting changes or disconnecting the hot start....I guess tomorrow I ask more questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
