I bought an 08 Nytro last year, it’s previous owner said skid was an older Mountain Tamer. I replaced the slides, was told to use Polaris slides. They took over 4 hours to put on using a dead blow hammer! They didn’t seem to fit well at all! My question is these rails are tipped up like the xtx skids, is there a chance that these are Yamaha 153 rails? I have to replace, due to scratchers failing, and I’m not looking forward to the same struggle.
 

Can you measure the slides (groove/depth) and maybe we can compare them to stuff people have in their garage.
 
I couldn’t get the mic in a good position to measure thickness of the “T” but it looks like between .22 and .25” I tried posting picture of the whole skid but it’s too big for server.

The .96” is the width of the “T”.
 
That’s basically the same as my Yamaha slides. Wps number 44-11850. .96 wide and just short of a quarter inch thick for the slot.
 
I had a feeling that the rails were Yamaha. Thanks for the reply.
