Canada sled parts steering bushings
Rubber bumper on the limiting strap bolt
through bolt for the rear scissor
silicone the air box and the upper intake plenum
clean the clutch after every other ride and inspect for cracks and make sure spider rollers are good
lower steering post bracket where coils mount to will crack the tabs off
ECU heat shield will crack the tabs off
belly pan rubber isolator for the pipe on the clutch belly pan at the 1/4 turn likes to pop off
stock exhaust can likes to melt the side panel half way up
aluminum lower gear in chaincase so change oil often
track tension needs to be a little tight to prevent the track clips from cutting down the sliders in set up snow
front track shock lower bolt likes to strip out
rear wheels on skid like to break off and shoot forward stabbing the track, held on with rivets and glue.
top cap on rail like to pop off, held on with glue and rivets
dont use dyed fuel in okonogan(sicamous, kamloops, vernon kelowna etc) i lost a lower connecting rod bearing,
put a little APV gold(blue cat 2 stroke oil) in gas tank every fill
bulkhead likes to crack in the openings where the tie rods come out, you have to remove the rubber boots to see this. Usually at the top opening towards the rear of the sled
tunnel likes to crack in the right footwell at one of the chaincase bolts
steering post will ultimately fail

I have had everything above happen to me, or fixed the above.

You have had some bad luck from the sounds of things, other than the alpha rail nothing has really changed in 11 years and I’ve had no failures like that and I have smashed some $hit on my many cats
