[@danaberman6929]

I got a new 1985 Safari 377 for Christmas when I was in 10th grade. It was a quick fun sled that even channeled the heat from the engine to a vent under the windshield. It was a good place to warm the hands. It got cold up in Northern Maine...

[@rednecksdirtyhands]

Nice One! cheers Maine 🍻

[@dropinbiking92]

My favourite old sled, Rode a 377 many many times late at night. Was a great field sled.

[@rhyno5228]

[@drumhopttv]

brings back memories. My first sled was an 87 Safari 377. I was born in 91 lol

[@thermos750]

Old sleds never die! Those 377 were and stilll are a very popular sled for it's light weight and a bit more speed then a 340! I had 2 of them and wish I still had them! Dam covid cranked the price of vintage sleds through the roof.

[@ranchdog7920]

[@lukejohnson4576]

Awesome vid

[@coopgames0830]

A guy has the exact same sled but a 1986 447 i used to have a 80 377 citation. But blew the motor cause the oil pump fell off. We rebuilt it then sold it. Keep up the work bud

[@coopgames0830]

Oh and on the citation my skie broke in half and folded back into the body goin 83 km

[@vinceschaeffer]

[@rednecksdirtyhands]

[@sydphyllis2998]

That safari is a straight flashback to bush banging with buddies at 16 years old. Had the same one but in mystic black 😂

[@jamiedauch6317]

One of my favorite snowmobile KZbinrs

[@martyfield694]

Keep on wrenchin' and ridin' and filmin', the season seems to keep getting shorter. I like watching wrenching, I had 2 70's era skidoos that I had to figure out how keep running top notch. And my buddies dad had a Safari so I put a few miles on one of them.

[@bricenip]

all of the old sleds are bringing back good memories bud. keep up the great vids man and dont worry i kept drinking beers until your singing tune straightened out lol. Cheers from Newfoundland brother!

[@johnhicks9529]

Keep on wrenching.& be safe doing what you do.

[@scottygraybill352]

[@rednecksdirtyhands]

🤣🍻

[@billyb.9878]

Well that was sweet, what ya did Fer that old sled. I'm an old guy (70) and my nieghbor rents ice shantys out for spearing pike. He's got an ice boat for crossing the channel. 18 foot aluminum hull w/ a Lycoming airplane motor pushing it across the ice. Once across the channel he uses a 1968 single cylinder johnson sled to pull the fisherman to the the shantys. And he's got a spare sled of the same vintage Fer parts 😜. And he still axes the holes thru the ice. Old school 🚸.

[@petereaume8418]

Enjoy the content I love 🍺and sleds,ps I have the same articat coat also the leather bibs,keep brapppin

[@joeyparsley2378]

My first sled was a 90 safari 377. My buddies called it the super tanker because I could ride all day and have plenty of fuel left. Sold many gallons of fuel. Kept for 3 years and since ride Polaris. 95 Arctic Cat 580 zr for a spare. Love your channel. Yakima Washington

[@rednecksdirtyhands]

thank you! cheers Yakima Washington 🍻

[@mikedeon1167]

You are my kind of people! Just subscribed

[@paulstillar47]

Love the 377s fawkn sweet man

[@onekamafarm3471]

P.S. You are the man!! The only thing I enjoy more than fixing up old sleds, is watching you fix up old sleds!

[@dandeslandes3258]

love the content! and jokes lol

[@peterlindsay2869]

I love this stuff. It is what I do to

[@murrayhalbert2988]

Great vid, I worked on a pile of these at a dealership from 1981 to 1990. The same engine was in the 4500 citations, that 377 engine model was a pretty good engine. I do need to just mention that the date on the side of the tunnel is the build date, May 1985, but the model year is a 1986 377 safari. The 1985 model had a black hood and was built in 1984. Like cars and such.

[@rednecksdirtyhands]

thanks! 🍻

[@Northern_Farmer]

My brother's citation ss had the 377 dual carbs...was pretty fast with it being so light

[@wizzard36]

Hey Pete I heard you mention loosing the straws off you cans of brake Kleenex or lube. What we do at our shop is when you set up a new can put some silicone around the straw and cap. The next day it’s good to go and you will never loose it. Love your videos by the way. Your friend Marc (Bossman) Lalonde.

[@rammiller5114]

Love them 377

[@grahamjude9078]

Great vids Pete Hope to see you working on an 88 Wildcat. One of my favourites. Cheers

[@rednecksdirtyhands]

thank you! cheers 🍻

[@neighborscomplaint6859]

Enjoy your channel! I snowmobiled from the early '70's through the early 2000's. My last 2 sleds were a snowcross 2001 Arctic Cat SnoPro 440 with a tunnel heat exchanger added for trail riding and a snowcross SkiDoo MXZX modded with low compression power domes, oil pump and tank and 10 gal tank for trail use. They were the ultimate trail selds at that time. Not the fastest across the lake left 'em in dust in the twisties. Keep up the good work ... wobble pops!!!! Love it!

[@MrHugawa]

thx "3 pump Pete" :) :) great video!

[@khailien7519]

you did a great job bro

[@wendybenoit3289]

Hey Pete love the channel keep up the great content from Nova Scotia.

[@stevenbaker9327]

Ya....love da Molson rack eh? Love the old sleds.. been out of it for awhile. Sold our skeds when we left Mt. and moved back to Minnesota. I gotta find a fixer-upper!

[@cmason5203]

Great channel

[@rednecksdirtyhands]

thank you! 🍻

[@rickybeaugie668]

British Columbia calling Stompin Tom & Gordon would be proud !

[@rednecksdirtyhands]

thanks 🍻

[@johnhicks9529]

Quick tip.,or secret to you Flex seal will fix those rubber boots to.& right stuff works to its rubber in A spray can. Try flex seal out. The price could be cheaper.,or close to that right stuff. Either product will works on those. Even black silicone works good to for rubber boot repairs. The WD-40,or kroil oil works good as A moisture.& water displacer in fuel tanks it helps clean carbon out of cylinders.& exhausts systems to. Good luck. 2 thumbs ☝ up.

[@jasonklonowski6282]

Without a doubt the greatest snow mobile video on KZbin!!!! Dedicated subscriber for life!!! Looking forward to bingeing your channel, you seem like a great mechanic, is there anything you can do to bring some snow??? Lol... On a side note me buddy Shawn is nicknamed the rubber boot bandit

[@rednecksdirtyhands]

haha that's awesome!! I really appreciate that man and all the support on the channel! cheers 🍻 and on a side note...we got a fella round here called Jonny Green Boots! lmao 🤣🍻

[@YoungPurple89]

I owned a 79 polaris 440. My friend had a 92 Safari. Our neighbor owned 2 1993 models. Eventually made one. Then done lol. Those sleds had no suspension. Not powder queens. Ice fishing, beer hauling buggies.

[@geoh5408]

He said what i was thinking ,it went farther than the zrt and back ,lol

[@Autovisions]

My 85 safari same thing happened to me last week the ski flipped around backwards made it a sketchy ride getting back

[@vollev40r]

About from 7:30 min 🤣🤣🤣🤣 the best thing ive heard for loooong time 🙈👍👍

[@michaelyarmie4858]

There dude. I just subscribed

[@kevmcd1752]

Sounds exactly like the Safari I had. Great video!

[@mitchmacleod7575]

Yea no pricing in the royal catalogue is annoying, I just pull it up on their website. Usually has pricing on there 👍

[@elijahboone4118]

love the vids

[@guestname5141]

Let me help out makes us feel better seeing you read are comments. Keep it up.ill watch

[@rednecksdirtyhands]

thanks 🍻

[@coryernewein]

This is my style😎

[@mazdarx7887]

Ever notice how the tracks fail on those machines fail. Usually the edge of the track gives out. If you mount a third wheel (even a fourth) in the center on the rear axel the tension is spread out over the width of the track rather than just the edges. I did it on a 85 250 citation and a 89 Tundra. Works like a charm

[@larrywarner9314]

I love the Arctic Cat coil 😁

[@scottmcnabb9122]

Pete your a funny guy I use to own one of them. Not a bad sled not the best but it is what it is right . And yeah keep on sing buddy I thought that was great cheer's pete lol.

[@rednecksdirtyhands]

thanks and cheers! 🍻
