What rails are those? Suspension looks pimp
yes tt has it correct good guy to deal with to these were the first set made for the timber skid & they are flat rails helps the ski lift & the timber skid just bolts up to them with all the proper holes pre drilled for you.
4me...the TImbersled suspension is one of the biggest single improvements you can have for all around performance...it has HUGE positive impact on trail, HUGE impact on deep snow riding, HUGE impact on landings for jumping etc. etc. etc.
you will NOT go wrong!!!

Well after riding this weekend with Paul (Impulse) I am sold on the M10. He was running a Timbersled on his Nytro and never quite got it quite right earlier this year. His primary purpose for the skid is hillclimbing. All I can say is Wow! He has Chad's whole set-up (from CR Racing) Tunnel, rails, susension...Did I mention all I can say is WOW. He pointed and climbed ANYTHING he wanted. Wish I had a camera. We went to some chutes that he tried to climb with the Timbersled earlier this year, and didn't make it with that suspension. He made it over with ease with the M10.
If hillclimbing is your main goal I don't think anything will hold a candle to the m10. I didn't believe all the hype until I saw it with my own two eyes.
That being said I can't spend $5K on a suspension. Freak, that's not even including the tunnel with is another 1600...I'll probably end up with the Timbersled, but I know every time I ride with him I'm going to wish I had 5K to get the M10. I know you can get a M10 cheaper in other places, but if you want the set up that is proven, tried and works you do.

like i said zeb great skid but not quite a m-10.if you really want a m-10 but dont want to spend the money it can be done for allot less just buy a used shorty m-10 off ebay or were ever you can find one around 500-600$ throw the rails away or sell them send the parts to fastraxx.he will revalve the shocks throw a set of cr rails on with mounting brackets your only into it for about 2500$
what was the set up issue that he was having with the TImbersled?
I prefer the timbersled for several reasons, first it improves ALL aspects of riding...trail, powder, bump handling, jumping, etc.
No doubt the M-10 can plant the skiis but have not heard much about its other benefits...not doubting, just my own ignorance...

Sorry I missed your post. His main problem with the Timbersled was to much transfer and ski lift. He actually had the dual shock set up at the big dog shoot out. He liked it, but it still wouldn't hold the front end down like the cr m10. This was on a Nytro.
I agree with you though. For all around riding the Timbersled might have the edge, but when it comes to glueing the skis to the snow when it gets verticle it won't do what a PROPERLY tuned M10 can. That's why Chad at cr can sell his set up for so much. He has the best hill climbing set-up.
