I finally had a chance to start going over the Viper.
Checking all front and rear suspension bolts. Checking the wire harneses and hoses for any potential rub through area's. Checking all the fluids for correct fills, clutching, etc...
As I was checking the suspension bolts. I noticed there are two mounting holes for the rear suspension front
swing arm.
I have a witness mark on the front mounting hole of the front swing arm. What looks like a bolt was installed then removed. The swing arm is currently mounted in the rear holes.
Question to you Viper owners that already have your Vipers.
What holes is your front swing arm bolted in. Front or rear?
I have the LTX 137 track.
Thanks
Oh a couple of things I knoticed so far checking the sled over. The rear axle bolts were loose and the coolant level is low, below the cold fill line.

Have marks on the spare holes on my Viper also, plus makes on the spare holes at the upper idlers. Wondering if they were used for hold downs in the crate ?

Well what i heard from a arctic cat dealer is that you can change your skid location if you want to do a track swap. So for bigger lugs then they can move the rear skid to make more room for the bigger track.

I think this is in the back location. In the rear right by the idler wheel is the place I'm talking about. Not sure if that's what you guys are talking about.
