Hi lilduke took your advice an geared the t3 163 down to 19. Also went to 110 chain. Man this thing holds 7900 on clicker 2 all day long now. She just keeps pulling and didnt really lose any hill climbing track speed. Thanks for your help

No problem, helped my sled out a lot.:beer:

Hi Pete was wondering if you did the work your self? if you did what did the parts cost? Any tips on doing the job?


Part cost me 20$ for the gear, could cost as much as 50$ though depending on ur source. You will need a socket set, oil, the gear and 20mins.

It is a really easy job.

I was beginning to think the only breakdowns you took pictures of were Poos. ;)

A few years and you couldn't drive 148 km?

Ya Keith. Have to remove can or suit case from side. Lock brake. Put a bowel under chaincase on floor to catch oil. Then undo the bolts holding cover on an let oil drip,out. Disconnect wire from cover an wiggle it out. Now loosen chain tightener all the way. Lock brake an remove bolt from top gear an pull off gear an chain. Let off brake. Now put chain back on bottom gear then put top gear in chain an put back on shaft. Make sure spacer is behind gear. Might have to move track or clutch to line up spline to gear. Once on put loctite on bolt an put back in. Lock brake again. Tight chain to a good finger tight. Then put everything back on. Put in new oil an done.

Tip sled on its side and you dont even need to drain the oil out. If it doesnt need a change that is.
