That looks and sounds like a lot of fun…… it’s been very very dry down here going on 3 years and our local lakes are all struggling to stay full. We have an 85 cobalt that we ski/wakeboard/relax on and we just weren’t able to get out much with it this summer.

What length trailer is yours? I’m going to be on the lookout for something to haul at least two of mine at some point but if I was to haul four in an enclosed what length would anyone consider minimum for four sleds? I’ve been considering an enclosed for other purposes as well (smaller lawn care too...

Haven’t had very much extra time lately for working on the sport… army worm invasion, seeding peoples lawns, football season, terrible sickness that wrecked the guts…. Anyhow things are calming down and cooling down and I’m glad for that. I got the sled up to high lift position to mess with the trac...

Got the seals replaced finally. Looked kinda ok from the outside but note how they were after getting them out. Spring broken and the other the lip was worn through. IMG_3884.jpeg Got more stuff cleaned up then dropped the belly pan down on a 2x4 across a couple jack stands to attempt to persuade th...

That stinks that you have the tools so close but can’t put them to use. I don’t think anyone will get too worked up about the patch job. They will be too busy looking at that sweet hood. Nice job!

Looks to still be a good part number down here in the lower 48.

Gary any update for the project? Since I expanded the herd this year I suppose you better put me down for 4 now. I think I’ll be able run the tracks I’ve got for a while but would rather not put time and money into them if these reproductions will be available at some point. Thanks again for your ef...

Nick thanks for the link. That looks simple enough and yeah if you set the sled on blocks would be easy to stuff the lift under it. Here is what I made this spring to store/move mine in my shed. IMG_3612.jpeg IMG_3757.jpeg Now this will only really be useful if someone has fork lift or tractor with ...

I decided to start with the sport as it looked like most everything was there and will take less work to get ready. The trail has some interesting things going on with tape, foreign switches/wiring on the handlebars. I got the carb worked over. New jets, needle/seat, cleaned up. Put a kit in the fue...

:beers; Came across this pair and was able to get them bought. Electric start on both and appear to have good solid tracks. Hopefully not too much to get them running again. Looks to be a good fuel system cleaning and some carb work for sure. Crank seals will get done since I’ve got plenty of time t...

After just getting my sleds to fire up for the first time after I purchased them I knew things weren’t exactly right with either machine as far as running well and staying running. Snow was on the ground so I did what I could and took them for a test a run not getting too crazy. Found that one had b...

Looks great! A JD jacket behind the helmet it looks like? A guy I work with had suit his mom had only worn a few times so I brought it home and luckily it fit my wife. Guess I need to get her a helmet too to complete the look!

Wish the sled looked a little better but I’ll have to live with the duck tape and smashed in bumper for now. That’s how she was when it came out of the other guys chicken coop. This site has been really helpful with lots of great info to get it going mechanically. Box full of some carb parts from ne...

Needed more than a ski helmet since acquiring my trailfires so I decided to go with new retro one from Biltwell. Not a perfect match with the sleds but close enough and it was marked down quite a bit since it’s a close out to make room for their newer models. Have really liked it so far and keeps my...
