Did some mock ups today on what would be the 14-18 137 rails. The 4.25" wheels will actually clear the front pivot arm so guys can take their pick which size wheel they want.
Also found a worn slide from a 16 ltx which shows the low spot right in front of the wheel. Wheel right in front of...
No nothing ready to sell yet. Front bend is most likely going to require the smaller wheels due to front pivot arm clearance. Thinking the larger ones will work well back behind the bump stop.
Been working on some marginal wheel kits as some skids have areas prone to heavier wear. The kit will work with 2.75" wheels or 4.25" wheels. In addition I have it designed so it will work in areas of rail with large cut outs so it should be a very versatile kit that works in may spots on the...
I now have a handful of kits in stock. Retail is going to be $150 per sled. Only notable change to kit is I opted for a plastic instead of stainless offset spacers to help keep costs down. All the vipers/sidewinder use plastic. I also increased the OD of the offset spacers a bit and lengthened...
There is an EPS light on the 11-18 guage. 11-18 also has the oil service tracker and also the low oil pressure "op lo" display as part of the low oil pressure shut down feature.
I am pretty sure I have an 11-18 guage if you need one.
As most have stated the sway bar failure is not widespread and not a trip ending part failure either. It is one of the more frequent requests I get and seems they are often on backorder so I just decided I would make some and incorporate a few refinements. Hopefully this week I can get down to...
I had metallurgy testing done on the stock bars to see what the factory ones are. The alloy I'm using is a higher tensile strength. I've used this alloy for years on my Apex 13mm sway bars and have never had anyone report to me that they broke one. Really don't want to post specifics on the...
Been working at these sway bars and soon have some prototype samples ready to ship. For those wanting stiffer I have some with a thicker mid section and I also made some out of different materials. Hoping to get these out at discounted prices for testing/feedback. Product like this really needs...
Very common for the 05 rails to crack on either side of the rear bump stops as there were no stiffeners on those rails. Easiest thing to do is swap to 06-09 rails with the stiffeners. I have some good used sets here. They would have the stiffeners and wider bump stops on so everything from your...
What were these kits retailing for at the end of his run? I saw a post from 2019 in which one member paid 135 shipped for 2 kits but wasn't sure if that did one sled or 2 sleds. Got some numbers back from machine shop so trying to figure out if cost effective to make. Looks like all new oem...
I can also confirm that the elka shock for the xtx 146 also is a direct fit in the 129. I don't know why elka does not advertise it for both. I ordered one for a customer's 129 last year and it was a direct fit. Yamaha lists same part number shock for 129 and 146 skids.
Vipers are notorious for hit and miss starting. Mine mostly had issues when hot. There were several ECU flash updates to help. What year is your viper?
The OEM heat shield on mid pipe is starting to become a more frequent failure as they age. For what it is the OEM one is a bit pricey at around $220 list and they don't seem to hold up very long even when new. Been working on a better quality one in the offseason. Finally got my cardboard...
