SNOBEAR

Give Tom a call at Snobear UAG in West Fargo. He has a list of possible units for sale through the dealer network. I do know of one unit that is for sale at Lake of the Woods Marine north of Baudette. That machine is in nice condition and runs perfectly. If you still have trouble, shout back on here and I can help direct you to a couple people that may be of help....Jim

i heard thru one of the resort owners up on LOTW that they currently stopped making snobears and production has ceased.... apparently there is a person looking to buy and take over the company... i have also heard it is kind of hard to find used snobears because of this... if they stop getting made, the only ones that are out there now are going to become much more valuable IMHO... there is absolutely nothing like a day of fishing in the snowbear up on lotw (like last week):

Rocki, the one I am referring to at LOW Marine was actually a relative of mine's machine. He updated to a newer model and traded that one in. It has been maintained properly every season and well taken care of. It is a one owner machine and is serviced and ready to go. You can contact Al at LOW marine for the price on that one but I wouldn't be scared of that machine for one second. Our family up here has 5 Snobears in our fleet and I myself am on My second machine so we know our way around the units pretty well front to back. That machine has the updated rear suspension components and had a new transmission installed last season, the engine runs nice and the inside and outside are clean. That particular machine has not been trailered or towed on any roads other than inside the LOW area. Let me know if your looking for any more specific info and I'll be glad to help. ( Jim 218-689-4736).

The one in the classifieds is sold, Jim i will be calling you for some more info on these rigs. I am very interested in one, but also would like to find a fair deal at the same time. I will be at LOW this coming weekend and It would be a bonus to find one then. I would like to find someone to ride with in one up there too while im there. We are going to the north side of the lake into canada.

That should work out perfect rocki as I will be up in the Angle all week this week. Heading up there tomorrow around noon. I will be on Little Oak from tomorrow through new years. So just give me a call and I will be more than happy to hook up with you and take you for a ride and get you up to speed with all your questions! We'll have 4 different rigs for you to take a look at from a stock snobear to a snofox and a couple of new ones as well. Look forward to hearing from you. We normally stop in and spend some time at Sportsmans Oak island and the other resorts in the area so give me a call and we can meet up!

I know a guy in Ontario who has Snobears available. He's 300 miles NE of Sault St Marie Michigan. (one might be 50 N of Toronto)

If you're willing to go that far and/or it gets to the point where it looks like you have to go that far to get one; let me know, I'll shoot ya his info.

    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
