Sloppy steering should I post forward kit

zbmmike · Feb 12, 2019

So I have a handlebar that moves side to side , I hit a tree once and flipped the sled onto handle bars once hard.. now seems like the bars move side to side clunky, and a bit front to back.
I am wondering if I can buy the post forward kit to fix this?
It says I need to have the straight t top post?.

It's a 2018 mountain cat, and seems to be a straight t post to me but just wanted to check .. as well any reviews of post forward kits would be appreciated.

Thanks
Mike.

You need the lay down post (pn 1705-522) off of a zr, xf or a 4 stroke. Can cut your stock post out of your pyramid structure cap. Or you can buy a new cap to be able to sell your old steering post. (Pn 2707-850)

I have this on my proclimb and it’s prolly the best mod I did. Makes it so much nicer to ride while sidehilling or climbing. Keeps the bars out of your chest and allows you to get to the front of the running boards.

It does make flatland riding a little more uncomfortable tho.

Check the plastic bushing on steering post could be cracked.

Or missing clip that holds bushings in.

Stock ones wear out fast I usually replace every season

What a waste putting stock ones on every season, Canada sled parts ones will last the time of ownership and are probably the same price

Works well, I wore out the stock bushings on my 18 MC half way through last year. Put the Canada sled parts ones in and 100% better, put just as many miles on as I had on the stock ones and they look and feel brand new
