136 Inch Phazer Extension Installed

[woolyviper]

I finished installing my new 136 inch Freeride and the TracksUSA extension. I put Polaris 5.35 wheels in the front of the skid to replace the stock wheels. This required taking .120 inches off each end of the lower shock bracket. I also put a set of stock yamaha bogie wheels in the rear. I was going to drill holes and mount on a cross shaft, but by taking the bolt out of rear bracket, I was able to put the long bolt from the front bogie wheels and the mount with the spring perch in the same hole - it actually only took about 30 minutes to install the wheels. Here are a few pics - I sure wish it was the beginning of the season. I also installed Simmons Gen I skis as well (off of ebay).

Cool!You said you had to take .120 off shock bracket for Polaris wheels.Is this because they are wider?The ID is right though?

 

[woolyviper]

polaris has 6205 bearings that are 15mm wide. yamaha has 6005 bearings which are 12mm wide - so you have to take the 3mm off each end of the bracket - both are 25mm id.

and after all that, i forgot to put my RX-1 spring on the front shock - oh well, when I take it apart middle of next season, I'll do it then.

What are you going to do for an extension? You are not going to give us a teaser. G.B.

I purchased a Yamaha aftermarket bumper that had the flap mount broke off. I cut the top hoop off of a stock bumper and mounted that to the aftermarket bumper. It's almost done (having trouble with my new air rivetor). Will post when it's done.
