jd300

Post by bobjd300 »

Could some one give the measurment of how far the skies are out past the front bumper on a jd300?

I am wondering if I need to take the toolbox off of my 6foot pickup box to haul this sled home.

Thanks for the info

Overall Length:103.4 in (2.63 m) divide that by 12(inches) = 8.5 feet...
I have a full size bed..I have to either leave the tailgate down or lift the sled up to close it.

Leave the tailgate down or put it in sideways (make sure the rear of the sled sticks out the right side of the truck and stay away from mailboxes!!) DA

Can always put the sled in skis first and close the tailgate....having the track rest on top of the tailgate. Ive seen this done before!

Like to put it in skis in first just need to know if I need to remove my tool box from the truck.

Any one know how many inches the skies stick out in front of the front bumper of a 300

Thanks Bob

I measured about 16 inches from the front of the bumper to the tip of the skis on my JDX6...doubt there is much difference between it and the 300...over length is the same for both sleds....

Hope it helps..
