Congrats on the new Winder. Make sure to bleed the air out of the cooling system. This tripped me up in my 1st year with the SW and ruined a trip due to overheating. There are many threads on this, but basically need to get the front end way above the rear - run the sled - open the cap on...

I have them on my ‘22 with power steering and they are near perfect for me. Zero push and minimal darting even in heavy wet snow. I had to keep reducing the spring preload on the front skis until the darting was gone and at my current setup the sled handles beautifully. I am running a...

Bingo. That’s exactly what it was! Thank you very much!!

Thanks for that. I installed a hurricane top gear bushing a year ago and it only has about 500 miles on it so I think we can rule that out.

I have read all the previous posts but can’t find the answer to my issue. First ride of the season - just around the cottage. Backing into garage and sled throws SD08 and will not come out of reverse. For sure my belt was way too tight as had my BOP adjuster backed off all the way after...

I have not reached out to Travis on this. From the little bit of research I did on this it looks like the ones BOP sells come from Rocks but I could be wrong.

-32C this morning in Cochrane and sled wouldn’t start and threw code 43. Thanks to this site I knew what to do. Pulled the main and fuel pump relay, warmed them up, swapped their positions and sled fired right up. Both of these relays were the BOP no freeze relays that I installed when sled...

Here is the hose that I used/researched that seems to be a good option. Was in stock at local NAPA store. Highly resistant to oil, low temps etc. Gates Plant Master XTreme 325 Braid https://www.motioncanada.ca/products/sku/00340980?fromSisterSite=true

Installed the big viper clutch kit in the primary today as well as orange spring and hole shot helix for the secondary. Easy install. Looking to wake up the bottom end and seems like this setup comes pretty well recommended.

On my 22 LTX GT….. - no issues with ROV or oil tank leaks and sled spent many cold nights outside. - installed BOP driveshaft saver at 80 miles. - replaced top gear with Hurricane needle bearing gear assembly after first season. My top gear was the weak sintered gear but never caused me any...

Here is what I experienced/learned today when installing new Hurricane top gear - posting the details as it may help someone else.…and I’ll probably forget the details so it will help me as well for next time I get into the chaincase. - watched all the videos and read the articles related to...

Thanks. That’s the clarity I was looking for. Couldn’t seem to get the reverse gear to fully engage the small teeth on the top gear but will go back at it tomorrow.

Thanks. Am I correct in that the reverse gear doesn't slide all of the way back onto those smaller teeth on the top gear during pre-assembly?

Got into the chaincase this weekend and the top gear in my ‘22 LTX GT is not the machined gear. It is definitely the cheap powdered metal gear. No chipped teeth (thankfully) but definitely there is play between the gear/bushing and the shaft. I just slid the new Hurricane 21T gear on to the...

I have a few questions on this topic. I installed the BOP shaft saver within the first 50 miles - so I am expecting the shaft to look good when I disassemble and check it next month. The questions are: 1) While I have the caliper and disk off - should I replace the stock OEM bearing with the...
