BROKEN SKII!!!!!!

Post by Mr. Deere »

Hey guys its me! Im back and so isnt the black cloud that seems to be following me! Well ive been riding it around and been loving it.. Still fine tunin the carbs a little but its fun none the less.. Today i went out to use it and noticed the front end sagging. I looked and noticed i snapped the leaf on the MAG side ski :doh: This is the most snow weve had in years and i cant even ride it now.. Anyone have an extra spring kickin around?? I am stuck without it! Thanks Guys :letitsnow:

Bob, glad to hear you're out riding. I think I have a ski for you. I installed 2 NOS springs, but one of my original springs was still good. PM me your zip code and I'll get a shipping quote.

Well there you go Bob.

Grab your rachet and a couple of extenions and the famous four sizes of sockets and tighten up all the bolts on your sled.

All 126 of them!
Keep your eye open for other issues while you are torquing.
