I found out today that the small 'socket' wrench that doo gives you in the OEM toolkit is the perfect size to splint a broken tie rod on an 06 summit. The wrench, a couple of tie raps and a bit of duct tape and you are good for at least 85kmh on a groomed trail.......

Maybe you should not have smashed your sled in the first place???

Someone had to take my place and smash something! How did you break something like that on the groomed trail?:confused:
