    Slider wear DuPont

    I set ours at 1 1/2 with slight pull down and most of our wear is at the rad as shown. Flip the strip end for end and keep going.

    Aftermarket oil change

    I use Wix 51358 filter and any Euro Spec 0-40 Syn Oil Amsoil or Mobile doesn't really matter. Rock Auto for filters about 7.50 each and 3.5 qts oil. Gear lube 90-140 Amsoil from a 5 gal bucket. Not sure how much due to using a pump. Change every year regardless of miles. Its cheap insurance.

    Center spring adjustment

    Its very hard to say where your startin from. Not your fault just who knows who set the sled up. You need a base line.

    14 Viper hard start, crank and crank.....

    I haven't done our 14 7000 only because it hasn't had any issues other than idle rpm search and the extreme cold relay fault. I was thinking of doing this one if there were no side effects. I think Ill wait for further better responses. Sure hope this pans out for everyone. No one should have...

    Viper / 7000 windshield

    This weekend in the UP my wife stated she would like a taller windshield on her 7000. Yami has a better selection from looking at other sleds. Will they fit the cat? If so which flows air at face or higher to keep her warm?
