Viper mods under $100.00

Anti-stab kit is a must for anyone going off trail, jumping or catwalking you sled

BDX Anti-stab kit= $70

Arctic cat chassis are known for this

I agree on the 141" and longer but on the 129 and 137 it's not going to be an issue.

Ill have to disagree with you. My Crossfire 7 had a 136" track and every time i came down off a jump tail end first I could feel the ratchet as my rails try to stab the track. After installing the anti-stab kit there was no more ratcheting(and im not talking about drivers ratcheting). Now yes the new rails could have a different profile but AC is known for this and a kit is $70 vs new track at $700+ or - . To me I'd rather have the peace of mind

Can the anti stab kit be installed with track and skid still on sled?

You didn't show the poor guy that went over the bars.....was he ok?

Is a lot of wear on slides above curve on mine. Caps look fine though. No place for wheels other than this anti stab kit. I hate small wheels but may give them a try.

Yes. It's very easy. No need to take anything apart besides removing the rail tips.

I agree with you "tricky Nicky" on the old crossfires but have never seen an issue on the new 128/129 or the new 137 skids in the Procross chassis. 141 skids and or 3.0 pitch track and I would do anti-stab, which is what I have done to mine. Cat had an update to the rail caps on the M series the year before last, which was obviously to reduce the possibility of track stab. The new caps fit the 141 though that skid was not included in the bulletin. I believe some, if not all M's are now coming with anti-stabs off the assembly line this year.

Nice pics Caltrax

I appreciate the thread just laughing at my self for spending to much.

I like to blame Terry _NOS PRO-for "spending my money"- through his and now both of your good ideas, mostly my fault. LOL

I never want this to happen.....

The 2015 Viper MTX sleds will have anti-stab wheels installed from the factory

How about fully clipping track? I believe it can be done under 100. Is next thing I do.

This is something I have also thought of.. What is the benefit? I know what I think it would help... Not sure anyone else is

OK so I looked into the Anti-Stab Kit and I am pretty sure that I have seen the Wahl Bros name on here for awhile. The problem I have now is I can't remember if my XTX has one Limiter Strap or two.....It has simply been too long and too many brain cells ago for me to remember. I looked and you can get either kit with shipping for $88 on Amazon, can someone tell me what part number they used on their XTX? 790A or 791A??? It really needs to snow!!!!

 

[shagman]

XTX has 2 limiter straps.

 

[MorganKoda]

XTX has 2 limiter straps.

Thanks!

My first "Mod" under $100. was a new black powder coated riser. Looks much nicer on the new sled over the raw aluminum riser that comes on a 2015 LTX SE. Also went a little taller with it.
