In tips dated Jan. 8th, '75.



Three Leaf Spring Installation

For those drivers who would like to replace monoleaf springs ( AM53357 ) with the three leaf set ( AM53322 ), they are interchangeable. There are some advantages to the change. The three leaf spring is of equal strength and may have less tendencies to collapse during an extreme impact.

Drill the hole in the spring saddle 7/8" forward of the standard hole. This will posistion the ski 7/8" back from its present location which will improve steering control ( reduce darting ).

In the picture that Ed posted,it seem that his sled #907 and the one beside him #905 have no red in the decals on the hood! Where as on Kenny's you can see the red clear as day! Is it just me or was there a different decal?
