There was a polaris part # for the 120 kids sled. It was a summer tire kit with spacers, spindles etc... it made the wheels sit nice and straight but its discountinued now. I just jimmy rigged my own set up with generic tires and rims works good on kid sled. check e bay a guy sells them there as well but from usa so easier to buy your own.
looks something like this

Princess Auto should have what you require. Should be a fun project.

I was in the dunes in Rexburg Idaho last weekend and seen a guy with a new Pro RMK ripping around with a wheel kit on the front. It looked pretty awesome. How would a guy get away from melting sliders and killing a track doing that?? Im guessing he had plumbed in a rad to keep the engine cool but the track and sliders is a different story.

haha ya I wounder all tho not too much hp on a PRO lol jus bugging... ya the 120 only goes 9 m/ph with a 40lb kid but a full weight sled and rider is a different story maybe he just takes its easy lol or its a spare track and old sliders either way he's hardcore and where's the pics??

Ya i wish i had got a pic of it. Didnt even think to take one till it was too late....was too busy being jealous of the guy sledding in the summer

I would think a guy could just add a shitload of wheels in the skid, and remove the sliders altogether maybe?

lol... now i think i have seen it all... what a waste of a sled... the sand would get in everywhere and sandblast the suspension in a real hurry

I once saw an elan without a hood towing an upside down car hood with a moose on it, going down a gravel road in july. he had no summer mods, other than the hood removed. pretty tight rig
