No I inquired about when you posted about the rear bumper and tunnel support post 5



My post 24 also examples this, I was wanting a set for my Polaris,.. CR doesn't return emails, I can't get a answer whether you are or sell CR products.

Why is it so hard to get a straight answer I'll just go buy a different product at the sled show.

Sorry I just do it for fun not for a living anymore. You can give me a call on my cell if you want, and I’ll get you a kit. Send me a PM and I’ll give you my number. Chad is tough to get a hold of right now, he’s a one man show, and getting everything ready for the sled show. I help him out in the winter with the phones and emails and building stuff. Best to call the shop when trying to get a hold of chad at this time of year he’s a very busy man. Cheers

Gen I bumpers are sold out already. The new Gen II bumpers will be released at the Edmonton show, we added more support in the area that buckles in between the board mount and front section, and added internal bracing.

We have new boards coming as well, and I highly recommend boards on the alpha, the stock boards are nothing to write home about.

Didn’t see anything on the Gen 2 bumpers online. What kind of price am I looking at? i liked the $300 sticker on the Gen 1 lol. Thinking of going with the CR tunnel brace kit for sure at least.

I like the skinz front bumper but pricey @ $469. May just get a plain one or just ride with the stocker for now

We are building a new front bumper for this season, it will be released at the show...standby on the front bumper for pricing, it won’t be a $500 bumper that’s for sure lol

As for the Gen II it will be the same price range as the Gen I

The snow looks fluffy and cold weather. Was it a cold day?

It was in Valemount. It’s always cool and fluffy there.

Mayb it’s just the picture, but do those boards not sit flush against the suspension bracket? Looks like you have a pretty big gap in between the bracket and the board? What keeps them secured? I do not see any bolts or rivets holding them down...also what is going on with the stirrup location? Looks pretty difficult to get your foot in their or even worse looks like if you do get it in there it would get stuck?

Actually I have tons of room up front in the footwell especially after installing the BDX cover. The boards are riveted on from the inside . Don’t worry there solid.

Ok great on the foot wells that’s really important!! I’ve personally just about broke my ankle several times on this chassis, and seen some scary stuff with some boards in that area and guys getting there foot stuck. I modify the foot wells on all my sleds now so that doesn’t happen.

What about the suspension bracket part? That’s the really important part on any board...just speaking from experience. Not saying yours aren’t secured properly just looks like some gaps in your pic you posted earlier and I don’t see any rivets or bolts holding it together. I cheated one year and didn’t do CR boards I used another brand and paid the price. The boards have to be secured to the bracket really well or the suspension brackets will eventually bend and it doesn’t take much and it will wreck your day.

Cheers

The gaps are where the boards go around the tunnel extension. Come have a look at it at the sled show.

Does superclamp or anyone make a tie down for the monorail yet? Or what do y’all use?

That’s a good question. Monoclamp?

 

[LMLCHEVY]

Superclamp doesn’t have anything on their site which is why I asked what everyone does. I’d prefer a clamp over a strap across the rail digging into the track.

Just lay 16" of 2x2 in the spot where a rail would be and use a regular rear clamp. Don't forget to take the wood out. Ahem

Just on the track? Doesn’t really secure it side to side.

Where’s Randall with some input? Maybe superclamp is coming up with something.

The 2x2 lays between rows of nubs. It works.

Ah I see.
Well if all else fails it’s an option I suppose.
Maybe someone has something in the works already.

You could probably return the spare belt, won't need it.

Boards, front bumper, rear bumper, y-pipe , can and clutching and your good to go blow the doors off any other 2020 sled produced.
