Hey all.....Wondering if anyone else here runs these? Ive had them on a 4 wheeler and now on my ATC250sx. I know they are made in Isanti MN, and have been in contact with the company, but they will not respond to anything. Looking for any info on setting them up. They have been working great, just like to hear any input from other owners. Thanks Much!

I was way out on Mille Lacs a few years ago on my sled fishing some humps when a guy and his young son cam rolling up on his 6 wheel John Deer that had them on. He seemed to be getting around pretty well on it but I can see when there is a ton of snow or drifts to get through the front wheel may dig in a bit. You may want to look at rigging up a ski for the front when the snow gets deep. Also a 250 is not the biggest motor to be turning those tracks and hauling a lot of gear out there. Still looks cool and fun! :)

Thanks! I do have a flip down ski for the front. Ive really never needed it though....Been in some pretty deep snow with it. As for the size, the driveline sees the tracks as the same size as the tires......Its just a nice rolling road for them to ride on. Gearing stays exactly the same and I can still tap it out to 55mph.......I dont do that, but did once to see.Its cool cause its completely universal.....Same exact kit on our old 4 wheeler last year. All our family rides now are old Honda ATCs. No registration reqs and super lite to move around.....and we can fit 6 in our camper...LOL!

Looks like you just about set. Where's the chair and heater?

I mounted the heater on the box after the pic..... And my pails are my chairs. I can throw a couple on top of the house also if needed. Bout the same setup I used a couple years ago but without the trax.

The deeper snow made it a bit tough a couple times too far off the main path..... That won't happen with the trax.

    • 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.
