Ive never had a sled with large lugs, we are all about having them set up loaded with picks. Being from maine i was either going down groomed power line/ wooded trails or scooting across lakes and fields, 95' Formula Z 583 and a 99' Formula lll 800. Miss those things they sure were fun in a straight line an thats about it lol. Loving the build man keep it going

to install the centric bearing on the pto side you need to tighten the chain case side then tighten the the centric bearing and tighten the the set screw, that will line up shaft in correct location in tunnel if not you will pop the collar off the bearing, I know from experience,

Lots of ways to do them wrong. I've found out to many of them. Thanks!

If I had that sled, I would buy a speed track and a big pile of chisels with 1/2 inch or more penetration. I would lower and lighten the sled and set it up for radar runs on shaved ice. Ditch the stock hood gauge pod seat and remove the oil injection, plumb in a rail-lube setup and put a good clutch on that motor, gear it for top end.

The holes in the track let the snow out and you wear sliders much faster.

No experience with finger tracks. Here in Minnesota we load em full of picks or chisels and send em across the ice!

Have you had any problems with the spring chain tightener to the Thundercat 900. Got a t cat 900 (96) and am thinking about putting a manual chain tightener but dont really know how.

Never hurd of a finger track
@clintbruderer227810 ай бұрын
They use them out West for hillclimb racing or grass drags. They hook up really good and you can put ice screws directly into the tips of the fingers. Not good for ice racing. For that you want a lighter track with studs
@joshkoltes10 ай бұрын
Man those finger tracks are terrible unless your always on icy crust or water
