    Need some truck advice

    That's the problem, they are 100% highway miles. Truck didnt have a scratch on it, seats still perfect, you name it, it was perfect. To look at or drive it you wouldn't think it had over 150kms on it. BUT the clock reads 300. Probably has less engine running hours than most trucks around 200K...

    Need some truck advice

    Yesterday morning I T boned an SUV that blew a stop sign at a blind intersection. I hit them really hard broad side, spun them backwards and they slid backward into a house. Totally their fault. I walked away not hurt at all. They all left in the meat wagon but they will be fine too. My worry...

    XM Mods

    There is no stopper on the back of the heim joint like on the factory one. I was playing around with it and I don't think its possible to over extend it front to back. I didn't look at it super close but the whole assembly just wont allow enough movement to make that stopper necessary I don't...

    Newbie areas?

    Quartz creek is a good beginner area. Usually a safer bet to go a bit later on in the year when there is a good base. That way there is a better chance she will get stuck less.

    Turbo Nytro clutch service/maintenance

    Brake clean is great for cleaning clutches but don't get any on the inner sheaves. It's an enemy for belts. Clean the sheave faces with soapy water and a scotch brite pad. Give them a good scrub until you get a nice cross hatch on the faces.

    ohhh our gorvenment

    Lol I hear ya loud and clear. I thought you were taking that another direction. But yes I agree that would be a really tough pill to swallow if that happened to a legit home owner.

    ohhh our gorvenment

    There is a 40 year old house on the tsu tina nation that isn't boarded up and used as a crack house? I just figured they got a new one every couple years no matter what. Highway should be no biggy

    Sled deck mounting

    Its hard to tell from the pics but 4 are actually on the outside of the legs and the other 4 only come into the box space an inch or two on the bottom side and angle up to the outside of the legs. They are very easy to get at. I had to pull my deck out today actually and I had it on the ground...

    I'm 6'3" and rode my XP with stock bars and 10" riser. I think a 9" would have been better but I never tried one out.

First round of work I have ski scratchers, track scratchers, quick clickers, grip n rip braces, Baker tunnel braces and drop bracket reinforcements, Toms...

    Crank replacement

    I would agree they are good for over 6000miles at least. To check run out you need to remove the primary clutch and both spark plugs so the engine rolls over easy . Then mount a dial indicator to the engine case and put the indicator on the end of the crank stub. Roll the engine over and see how...

    Speedo not working on 08 summit xp

    I have been able to salvage new oil by tipping the sled on its side and resting the handle bar on something and lifting the back of the track up and resting I on something too. That way all the oil just rests inside he case with minimal to no loss
