I would just do all the mods. listed on here for the '08. I updated to '09 after I bent my sub-frame, and right arms. Yes it is better, but I don't feel it was worth the $ if you don't need the parts anyhow.
As stated above the '08 front (with mods.) I thought was better for the tight stuff...
Thanks everyone! The pics helped alot. My dealer could sell enough sleds in this area, so Mine was the last one they sold. So I have no '09s to look at. The new spindles I got are 100% the same as my '08s. Somewere the order/shipping got messed up. I'm going back to the dealer tonight, so I'll...
last night i took off my 08 spindle and measured every hole and angle then compared it to the 09 spindle I got. Every measurment was the same!!???? So I'm going to check the part #'s again when I go back to the dealer. If my new ones are 09's then I will just return them since $ is tight now...
My spindles new spindles are '09 ones, I double checked the part #'s. Every hole seemed to match up between the '08 and '09's. But I will take the '08's back off the sled tonight and measure everything to see if I can find any difference. The '08 part # says '08 only, and the '09 says '09 only...
Ok the new 09 spindles cost me $175.00 each. (for 09 front update)I take them out of the package and compare them to the '08 spindles and they seem the same in every way. I found no difference yet. So why are they listed as '09 only on the parts list? Am I missing something? Otherwise I'm taking...
My home computer crashed last week, so all I have is 5 minutes here and there to go on the internet here at work. All my parts for the 09 swap should be in today. I didn't get new tierods though. If I remember correctly the 09 is 1/4'' shorter than the 08. Is this correct?
Thank you.
Boy I'd hope for it to be totaled, then I'd buy it back and fix it myself. I'm not concerned with the resale, since when I'm ready for a new sled I'm keepin mine as a spare.
I just paid my bill for the whole '09 front.
If you guys are from N.E. PA go to Keystone outdoor in tunkhannock pa.
I've delt with every yamaha dealer in the area for sleds,quads,and bikes.
They are the best hands down.
The a-arms come loaded with new balljoints and bushings already.
I've only seen one. I have it, soon as I get my sled back together I'll get a pic. It comes to the to of the stock windsheild, and wraps around the speedo. It wouldn't look bad with a clear windsheild since there is a Yamaha logo against it, But mine is painted.
I got Regular Hella 80W/130W bulbs from Summit. They work great, no problems with the wires getting warm or the lens getting warm as of yet. Just need to adjust the lens down a bit, but had to do that before. No one complained about then either. Just thought I would Share.
I'm also running...
Since I'll be putting the '09 frontend on this week, What ski's are people finding work best on them? I'm understanding the '08 and '09 factory ski's are different, and since the front ends are different, that will change everything.
I'm looking for something to handle mostly trails, and some...
Ok incase no one knows I just got into the sleds last year. So alot of this is still new to me.
So I'm finding out no that I need to stud my track. So.........
-What studs do I need? (08 fx nytro standard, stock track)
-How many studs? (mostly trail riddin, some ditch baggin)
-Were is the...
just to clear up my post..............................
I'm mostly into quads, trucks, and rock crawling. I just got into snowmobiles last year since I sold all three of my sport quads and got a grizzly 700. I missed speed and was bored during the winter.
Also know for a fact that the FI...
If you do a search you will find this was discussed before. Now I'm not saying this to be a @ss, but because there was info in there that made you think twice about running 93.
Guys were getting better drag times on 87 and loosing time on 93
It's all what the machine is set up to run. My...

Well I'll try to reuse my tie rods first.
I'll be doing this next week (soon as parts come in) so if anyone wants a certain pic let me know.
thanks for all the help.
I'll be doing mine in the next week.
the tie rods are different?? -I didn't order them #$%&*
Aren't the ski mounts (spindles) different? when I ordered my stuff the spindles were '08 only, and '09 only, so I ordered a set.
