I think I know what which way I am going, but thought I would see what you all think. Looking to see if I should go with the 7 or 8 tooth Wahl Bros No-Slip Drivers? Thinking the 8 tooth woudl be the right call.
I had picked up a less than 1,000 mile take off track from a Polaris Assault a few...
So I am finishing up a complete skid rebuild, replacing all bearings and oil seals in the chaincase and drive line, and will install a new 1" 3/8" x 144" Cobra track. While taking apart the chaincase, I found the broken driveshaft bolt. The last thing I need to do is remove the broken bolt...
I have seen on Facebook a couple people installing Axys boards on a Nytro. Has anyone on here done this? I wish Mountain Tech was still making running boards for the 08/09' Nytro. I put a set of MT boards on my 09' Phazer and loved them! G.B.
I posted my mod replacing the welded zerk fittings with theaded 304 SS zerks on the Nytro page and thought others might be interested in this as well. After some 13,000 miles on my 08' Nytro, most of the factory zerks would no longer accept grease. G.B...
I am completely rebuilding my 08' RTX skid, replacing all the drive line bearings and doing a track swap. There are a few skid Zerk fittings that would no longer accept grease. So I cut them all off and tapped them with M6 x 1.0 threads. Since I cut the Zerks right up behind the Zerk ball, I...
So I am rebuilding my 08' RTX for the 2nd time since I have owned the sled. It has approx. 13,000 miles on it now. I found that there are super thin, brass possibly, bushings in the aluminum transfer link arms. Three of the (4) bushings crumbled when I removed the bolts from the skid. I...
Who is working on summer mods and PM on their Nytro? Has anyone powder coated their skid rails? If yes, pros and cons?
I am rebuilding my skid and doing a track swap on my stretched 08'.
-Skid shocks to be refreshed
-New powder coat on arms, brackets, etc
-New skid arm bushings
-Polish or...
Well after 4 plus thousand miles on my 2008' RTX stretched to 144' since I bought and built it, I think its time to try and reduce the darting that I always tell myself is not that bad, lol. I have a totally stock 08' front end and have been running 6.9 Pilots with 6" carbides down the center...
As I continue to fine tune the ride and handling of my Nytro with miles and season after season, I decided that I wanted to try a set of Snowtrackers to tame some of the darting I have time to time. I am running completely stock 08' front end with oil lite A-arm bushings, and a set of Pilot...
We all know that Nytro windshields have become unobtainium. I stumbled across Powersports 1 selling new extra tall OEM windshields on eBay. They had 4 available when I ordered mine and now I see they have only (1) left. They look like the second picture in the listing. Lower edge is black...
I won a set of the Yamaha SMA-ICESC-02-ST ice scratchers at the 2019 Give Away Ride and was finally looking at mounting them on my Nytro tonight. Has anybody mounted these to the stabilizer bar link per the option in the instructions? It looks like a clean simple way and effective place to...
As I have now almost 8,500 miles on my 08' Nytro, I think I want to rebuild or freshen the clutches this summer. I have read thru most of the clutch posts on here and cant seem to find a list of parts that should be replaced when going thru higher mileage clutches? I want to use Yamaha parts...
Is it just me or does the suspension on this land speed record rocket sled look like it is off of a Phazer II? G.B.

I have been wanting to do the Vector gauge mod to my Nytro. Been researching the many posts on this and I am wondering if anyone has done this mod with a 2012 EPS and newer gauge? In Mr Sled'd post on this back in November 2011, I saw with Travis from BOP posted that he tested a 2012 EPS gauge...
I have my Chain case all apart on my 08' RTX and I am confused about whether I am suppose to have the thin o-ring behind the brake rotor spacers or not? Ulmers thread on track swap clearly shows that the sled had reverse and has the o-ring shown in the picture below.
My sled was stretched to...
Working on my 08" Nytro project this summer and looking to install a Trail Tank. I bought a used Trail Tank from a fellow TY member over 1 1/2 years ago and I cannot now remember who he was?
In any case, the tank came with the thumb screws and other hardware for the body panels, (2) o-rings...
We will see if anyone is around here this summer and has any suggestions? I picked up a pair of GYTR clicker skis shocks from Travis to replace the Floats on my Nytro project. What is the best tool out there for adjusting the springs? I have been looking at these but need to confirm the tab...
I picked up a 40th Anniversary RTX last year as a project and recently realized that it was missing some of the 40th stripe decals on the nose cone. I am looking for someone who has them on there 40th sled and if you could send me some close up pictures and maybe some measurements that will...
I have mixed emotions seeing my Phazer leave my house with a new owner tonight. I have really enjoyed riding and modifying my Phazer RTX over the past 5 years. There really is not another sled out there like a Phazer and I took mine to the top with mods and custom parts. I took mine as far as...
This is a shout out for Travis! I received a BOP skid plate for Christmas and it is really a nice piece. I think it is very well made regardless of the price. I have bought used parts from Travis for years and he is always great to deal with and has really good prices. This is the first new...
