Called to check on the new sled today and should be on the next delivery in a couple weeks. Should be able to pick it up middle to end of November which is fine with me. Did fire up my smokey 2 strokes today to make sure they run ok. Looking forward to a clean running quiet 4 stroke.

You have been talking about this snow checked sled since last year. I'll believe it-when I get a chance to ride it! :D

Did you order the black or two tone ??? I let Leech ride my 900 ace but I pulled one plug wire so he couldn't  take off and leave me riding his sled ,,,j/k ,,,I did have one friend ride it for about 3 miles ,,,He jumped off it and said "I cant ride this any more or I will want one"

Boat went into storage on Saturday and the sleds are now in the garage.

Looks like I'll be needing a new battery for mine, its shot.  Other than that they look good to go. Plan to fire them up tomorrow, hoping we can get some riding in by early December this year!

Definitely gets me a little more excited about riding. And I plan on trailering to some nicer trails up north this year. If timing works out I would definitely go on that ride with you guys. The more sleds the more fun. I remember years ago we would go on rides with 20,30 plus sleds in a group. Unfortunatly back then several wouldn't make the round trip but that was part of the fun to.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • 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.
