ok, need description and better pics!!!! that looks really nice!!!

can you get some closer up pics? assume it was just cutting original...

 

[errol]

A closer pics and details would be nice!

Really nice by the way!!!

Is this a 162 track ? Seems to me!

 

[r0tax]

a nose job!?!

 

[T-Nytro]

Yes it is just the stock tunnel cut up. Just used a bender to bend the outer extrusions up. Took the back piece to the tunnel off and cut it up and mounted it so it was tipped up. Where the drop brackets mount to the running boards just used some stock pieces cut up. It was not how I envisioned it turning out. When I was bending the outer extrusions I went a little too far and stupidly (knowing it would probably break) tried to bend it back. This is what I came up with after I broke it off. WIll get some closer pictures tonight. Ran some 1 inch aluminum angle iron on the inside of the tunnel to stiffen up the back portion edges. Left the back peices open to I could kick the snow off easier.

162 apex take off I got for 200.00 NEW and mounted it backwards.
That is a 10.4 gallon trail tank as well.

ROTAX
Yep I thought the sled nose was a little too big so I gave it a nose job. NICE.

Happen to have this one at work. Will get better ones tonight.

very nice job, I saw that you have olins on the front do they make a big difference, do you have them in the back also?

I just put the ohlins on this summer. It remains to be seen if they are worth the money. I had floats on the front this past season and did not like them at all.

I had them on rx-1 front and rear and loved them. I dont like the stock ones on mtx and I thought about going to olins but, I was told it was a waste of money. No one seems to know what kind of shocks to put in place of stock. Did you order them for fx or mtx and what did you do in the rear? Thanks ,Randy

The stock shocks are junk. I had ohlins on another sleds and they were great. Probably going with a M10 for the rear. As far as a waste of money, I highly doubt it.

Thank you for the info. I will just take them off my rx-1 and try them.
