Most of you may know that we have been trying to get more offset spindles machined but have had no luck with local machinists. Anyway we brought in 3 sets of black anodized offset spindles from MNT SIDE PRODUCTS. They look really good and we will be running a set to see how they are on the AXYS.

$529 is what they end up being listed for in Canada.

How do you find the offset spindles so far? Did you have to adjust your shocks to a stiffer setting due to the ski's being further in?

Actually with the skis farther in they actually have less leverage on the a-arms but not enough to notice a difference. I really am liking these spindles and find they make the sled feel lighter. (as easier to pull over) I have been running the skis in the center position too and that works better for the ski rubber. Another thing is that these spindles have been designed a bit thinner to allow for oil-lite bushing that are pre-installed. This is a good upgrade for durability.

I have 2 sets for sale if anyone is interested.

How much of an offset is there? Interested in a set of these

They are 1" offsets, so stock is 39-41" and with these would be 37-39" - they have a 1 year you break it they replace it warranty as well.

I think nytro24 was asking about the spindles Chris, not the bushings...


Sorry, I was just updating a thread about the ski rubbers and got mixed up. $525/set of spindles with 1" offset each side.

Just sold out but can put in another order and they came in a week.

Update on these?

Yes we have stock. We have 3 types. For the AXYS RMK (tall and skinny), For the Assault AXYS (tall and wide) and for the Pro-Ride (short and wide).

Unfortunately pricing has creeped up on these to $595. Still a bargain compared to changing a complete front end.

They might be a bit too skinny for the 850

You would be surprised at how many guys are telling me that they run narrow a-arm and offset spindles and love them. Not sure if it would be too skinny for me though?

That just seems insanely skinny too me. I wouldn't be able to do it

It’s the next innovation in sledding. Going back to Snohawk mono ski days like the alpha mono rail now we will have a single 14” wide glued ski set.
