Just thought id throw some pics of my summer projects out. See what you all think. First i stretched the uncles 97 MXZ from 121" to 151" with some taller bars. Then at the end of last season i sent my sled for a good tumble in Clemina and wrecked the stearing, so since i had to pull it a part i thought i woul big bore and get some mods done. If it comes together she'll be a whole new sled. Probably should of bought a whole new sled but its the journey that we learn from, right!!

hey Kore the running boards look great, where did you get them and how much work to get them to fit on the s-chassis.

The running boards are stock but ive inserted eliminators for a cat. what i am doing is: I first mark the location of the inserts then scribed along the grip riveted to the rolled edge. this is where i cut, from the start of the eliminator to the end of the board. i then pryed it open to fit the insert and riveted together of course cutting out the holes for snow removal. Next i'll be welding the rolled edge to the tunnel with some type of gussets and stitching alot of the original board to the insert, we'll see how this goes.:d
