thanks for the video, that is exactly how my suspension looks and the Tri-hub spins with brand new hyfax installed.

I have a write up under my site name Mills for converting a 2014 to a 2017 jack shaft, bearings ans shims.

Does the bottom of the Tri-hub wheels extend down past the face of the Hyfax or should they be tangent to the face of the Hyfax (when viewed from side of rear suspension)

have they gotten a Trail 13 reroute figured out up there in Three Lakes or is it still shut down?

I have the same sled, same year and use Stud Boy Dually 6" with single host bar. They perform well and wear better than most other brands I have tried.

I searched T.Y. for information related to riding around Lake Superior and see that there haven't been any posts about it since around 2007 that I can find. I am guessing things have changed since then. Anyone have any advice on this trip, links to check out, have-to-have's to complete the trip...

I have a '14 Viper and still use the tri-hub rear tensioning wheel assembly because I modified it to be able to service the bearings. I purchased two used tri-hub wheel assemblies at Hay Days last year to make a spare for myself and a buddy. I just noticed that one is a larger diameter than the...

If you are going with the '17 jack shaft you will have to update to the '17 bearing and strut-arm the bearing is in on the clutch side to. I updated my '14 this way to get rid of that damn wobble bearing. As mentioned before you can use the same gear but have to add the shim to get it indexed to...

I am surprised no one has asked yet but, I am wondering what the future of T.Y. might be with Yamaha announcing the end of their snowmobile line in 2025. Can you give us an idea of what the impacts to T.Y. will be due to the closing and what we as a T.Y. community might be able to do to help...

Not sure but, whichever oil filter you use make sure it has the bypass valve in it for either sled. The bypass valve is there to open incase something were to happen to the filter that does not let oil pass through the filter material.

The cost difference between the 0-40 and 0-30 not that great so I would stick with the 0-40 Euro-blend

I have used Mobil1 full synthetic 0W40 Euro blend with high zinc load in my '08 Nytro and '14 Viper exclusively with no one way clutch issues, no reduced power issues, no reduced fuel economy -- no issues whatsoever. Nytro had 11,200 miles on it when I sold it and my Viper now has over 11,000...

Cracked welds in the rear suspension, cracked rear suspension mount tabs at the rear of the tunnel, bent cross bar that the front of the rear suspension hangs off of, bent tube between the rear suspension rails that the front swing arm pivots on, worn out front suspension ball joints, worn...

2,700 miles between my two sleds this year. Have a buddy that is riding this weekend so that he can hit 4,000.

Get the mechanical power steering from Barn of Parts to
