Hey guys,
Got around 5000km on my sled now and I’m thinking it’s probably time for some maintinence/servicing this spring. What should I be looking at replacing or rebuilding? Looking to keep the sled reliable for another season or two.
I did a Mtntk drop in kit at 3400km.
Anything to...
I'm interested in this as well, currently around 3400km on my '14 assault, preventative maintinece and some more power would be nice. Rk tech drop in kit vs Mtntk drop in kit. Rk claims pretty much double the power of the mtntk kit??? Doesn't seem like you can go wrong with either kit but if RK...
Damn, well swapping over to the stock gripper skis is worth a shot.
Is there adjustable dampening or rebound on those shocks?
Maybe try the next stiffer position for preload on the ski's, to soft can mess with handling as well from what I have read online. Also try adding a 1/2 to full turn...
I'm no expert on sled suspension but it definatly sounds like yours is not setup properly or setup to go straight only. What shocks are on the sled currently?
I have an assault and it has 40" ski stance and I go everywhere my friends go on their pros, it took a bit of adjusting to get it to...
I have had this happen once this season as well. All I did was remove the oil cap put it back on and I have not seen that message since. I was thinking maybe the vent got stuck and the pump was not getting oil or something along those lines.
Mine started leaking on my assault, got it rebuilt and increased the spring pressure a turn or so and it's been fine since. Maybe you don't have enough spring pre load and the shock is bottoming out all the time.....just and idea.
Update, I picked up a pair of the new wix socks and tried them out this weekend and they did not make a difference. Boots are still damp/wet inside at the end of the day. I'm going to give Jake a call and see if a warrenty can be done on the boots.
What socks do you reccomend? I've tried a bunch of different ski/snowboard socks made from different materials even some with bamboo. Last ride I just used some ankle high Nike socks and they were by far the least damp out of everything I've tried, but definatly not dry at the end of the day.
They're warm, only down side I've found is they take FOREVER to dry. I never have cold feet or feel like my feet are wet but at the end of the day when I take them off the boots are damp inside. Not sure if it's from sweat or what's going on, I've tried many different styles of socks but boots...
Is the enough snow up hall now? We went up on the 13th and it was about 5-10' short to be safe. We only made it to the second cut block as the snow was not setup at all and it was stuck fest everywhere the second you went off the logging road.
Was going to say the same thing. Maybe mix it up with some fuel and anti freeze and whatever else you have under your kitchen sink.....as long as it still smells like gas when your done mixing.
