    Trailer Wheel Bearing Shot - NEED MECHANIC ASAP

    Hey all, we just arrived in Golden coming back from Revy. Did a walk around on the truck and trailer and it looks like a wheel bearing is shot. It was very hot and grease is poring out of it. Anyone open today that would be able to replace it. Please call my cell 780-910-6438.

    Finally bought another sled!

    Well, it's been about four years since I've owned a sled and an on and off discussion as to whether I'd have one for this season since about February. As of last Saturday, I now own a 2013 800 Summit X 163" with about 2,500 km's on it. It's all stock, came with the jerry can, and has electric...

    2017 Summit 850 165" vs 2017 Yamaha Sidewinder MTX 162"

    Okay, so this is going to be a fairly long post here. Apologies in advance. It has been quite a while since I posted on here and has also been a bit since I've owned a sled, but I'm looking at getting back into it. I believe 2014 was the last time I owned a sled. I ended up selling it because...

    2005 Arctic Cat M7 Thoughts and Opinions?

    So, my dad is looking at getting back into sledding, and I found a decent deal on an '05 M7. I've been doing some reading on them and overall they seem decent. However, I've read that the fuel economy was brutal. It doesn't need to get good fuel economy, just good enough that it isn't going to...

    Finally have enough money to seriously consider a new sled

    So, my '98 Camaro Z28 finally sold and I now have the money to start looking at sleds. I found a nice 2007 Summit XRS. It is actually owned by a forum member here. I haven't gone and looked at it yet, but the pictures on Kijiji and description of it seem good. Here is the Kijiji link. 2007...

    My friend just bought a 2001 Ram 3500 V10

    On Saturday, my friend and I made the long drive out to Grande Prairie so that he could go look at a 2001 Ram 3500 V10, 4x4, dually. 297,000 km's on it, had the transmission rebuilt 20,000 km's ago, and has all new shocks. The alternator was also replaced literally last week. My friend was the...

    2006 Polaris 700 RMK 159"

    So, due to some financial issues, my budget for a new sled has dropped once again. (Started at around $10,000, dropped to $8,000, and has now dropped to more like $5500). I found what appears to be a really good deal on a 2006 RMK. I've heard people complaining about the 755's and that because...

    Using a 6.0L Vortec to pull a 28 ft enclosed trailer

    I found a really good deal on a 2001 Silverado 2500HD with the 6.0L Vortec and I was wondering how their power is for towing. The trailer is a 28 ft v-nose, and I'd probably have up to 5 sleds at one time (either squeeze 5 in the trailer or 4 in the trailer, 1 in the box). Is it going to be...

    2012 M1100 Turbo Sno Pro 162"

    So I was thinking of being smart and getting a 600 or an 800, but in the back of my mind, I do have this want for the insane level of power. I found a decent deal on a 2012 Arctic Cat M1100 Turbo with 500 miles on it and the guy is asking $9,000 firm. Being that a 2015 is close to $18,000, that...

    Switchback Assault or RMK Assault

    So, I'm looking at getting a new sled. Currently I have a 1000 Mountain Cat, and am tired of having to throw around all the weight. I found a decent deal on a 2012 600 Pro RMK 155" with 942 miles on it. For $1500 more, I could get a 2014 600 Switchback Assault with a 144" x 2" track (it is a 2"...

    Mountain Cat 1000 should be in perfect running condition soon and other good news!

    I'm doubting that anyone really cares that much, but I'm very excited about this so I thought I would make a post :D.....that should just be a new category on here. Instead of snowmobile chat, just have a spot specifically called "random banter no one else cares about." lol....Anyways, I haven't...

    2001 Arctic Cat Mountain Cat 1000 HORRIBLE FUEL ECONOMY

    So I just bought a 2001 Arctic Cat Mountain Cat. Absolutely love it. For acceleration and speed it makes my friends Pro RMK look silly. But it guzzels gas. I went for a ride today at about -2*C and it made 28 miles, and burnt through an entire tank of gas!!!!! The Pro RMK that half an hour...

    Looking at getting a 2001 Arctic Cat 1000 Mountain Cat or a 2003 Arctic Cat 900

    So, now that I have sold the 670 Summit and sold the Summit 1000, I am now looking at buying an Arctic Cat. I found a mint condition 1000 Mountain Cat with only 916 miles. I think it is overpriced, but I know absolutely nothing about these sleds, so maybe the price is fair at $4900. How was the...

    Oil in 1998 Ski-Doo 670 Summit X

    So I just recently bought a 1998 Ski-Doo 670 Summit X. Prior to this I had a 2006 Summit 1000 but had to sell it due to budgeting reasons. I only put about 200 km's on the 1000, but I always ran Legend ZX2R because I had heard really good things about it. The guy I bought the 670 Summit from was...

    7 X 14 Trailer for 2 Sleds

    So I found a decent looking enclosed trailer. It is a 7ft x 14ft enclosed trailer (not a V-Nose, flat front). I want to put a 2014 Pro RMK 800 155" track and a 1999 Ski-Doo 670 Summit X in this trailer. From what I have been reading, it should be possible as long as one sled is pulled in...

    Looking at getting a Ski-Doo 670 Summit X

    I'm looking at getting a 670 Summit X because I needed to sell my Summit 1000 for budgeting reasons and now need something cheaper. The one I'm looking at is bone stock with 1900 km's on it. Once I get it, I want to do some mods that will cause it to have better floatation in the deep snow and...

    Summit 1000 vs Arctic Cat 1000 or 900

    I've been trying to find some information on which has more power, which climbs better, which is faster, which handles better, etc, etc, but can't seem to find anything. So what do you guys think between a Summit 1000 and a 1000cc Arctic Cat, or even the 900cc Arctic Cat?

    New to Snow and Mud

    So I'm a new member to snow and mud. Been reading the posts for over a year, but didn't actually join until a couple of days ago. This is the first post I'm making. I'm 19 now, started snowmobiling when I was about 5 years old on a late 80's Ski-Doo Citation LS 250cc fan cooled. As a christmas...
