    Sled cover

    If your looking for a cover for trailering, this wont work, but I got an ATV cover from Menards works great...the material lets any snow just slide off, its elastic bottom so it would fit many sizes. Again, it would only work for storage, not trailering.

    Replaced mine at 6000 miles. (2008 Vector) They were do to be changed, but not gone. as for the rivets, just take a channel lock and squeeze the flexible part of the pipe together. That's what I did and had no problems putting it back together, its tight but it worked. ALSO......take a look at...

    Vector ltx runs great then the IDIOT WALK

    I lost a wheel off my axle too. Luckily my buddy right behind me saw it rolling down the trail and picked it up. No nut to be found though so I decided once was enough. I drilled a hole in the axle and added a cotter pin so the nut could never "disappear" on me again.

    Dupont Sliders

    08 Vector LTX here. I put 3500-4000 miles on a set of slides, this is also with the stock track with every third window closed . I just ran the track loose. Probably could have got another 1-2000 but had the skid out, had the slides laying on the bench and decided to change them for piece of mind.

    RS windshield swap/replacement

    The old style Nitro is delta box II chassis where the Vector/Rage/Venture is the Delta Box I chassis. If I am not mistaken, the Venture is still DBI but the Venture GT is the DBII chassis (confirmation on the Venture appreciated).

    vector ltx in deep snow

    I have a LTX and have played just a little off trail. as others have said, the stock skis suck off trail. I added the mountain skis and what a difference it made. Still not a great deep snow machine, but I am much more confident playing off trail with the wider skis. WARNING....You can still get...

    2010 Vector LTX or 2008 Vector 121?

    2010 LTX would be my choise. Even if the color is not liked, one could always get one of those "WRAPS" for it and change the color AND scheme to ones liking. PLUS it would not look like everyone elses that way.

    Rear suspension trick

    I pull mine every year to grease the wheels. I have to do everything myself (no helper around). What I found, and makes it a snap, I disconnect one end of the transfer rod, one end of the shock, and the limiter strap. Yeah, its a little extra work to hook it all up again, but doing the skid...

    Newbie here with RS Vector Questions...Help!

    As for getting new skis for the 05. I had an 05. all I did for the darting issue was supported the front of the sled so the skis were off the ground. I turned the adjusters on the front springs so they just touched the springs. After this adjustment, I had very little if any darting. (was 5...
