I was the guy hiding the tools and kicking bolts all over the garage to help speed things along. Hahaha.

Gotta say, for a couple of rooks, the process went pretty good and alignment went pretty smooth.

Let us know how it works. I went with Zbros just 'cuz I didn't want to mess with the shocks but I haven't gotten around to installing them yet. Did my son's with Zbros though and he said it was like night and day difference from his Timbersled. Moving the spindles forward seems to be the ticket for the Nytro.

That's good to hear Kibbels, I'm in the process of installing the Skinz front end on my XTX. My main goals are to improve the side hilling and make the sled easier/reduce the effort required to hold a counter steer in wet/heavy snow.
