For the life of me, I can't find a couple parts. 1985 Phazer skid. They must of somehow went to the recycler with the last load. :/

Anyway, I've checked out the various Yamaha parts supplier pics, but they don't seem to list the correct part numbers.

I need the long bolt, the nut and any washers for the bolt, and the inside shaft. Any leads would be appreciated.


 

I had the same problem finding parts for my 87 phazer. I ended up swapping skids with a 92 exciter2 it was a direct bolt in and better ride.
 
Hi Vmax84

If you were to send me a PM with your address, I could send you the stuff you need for the cost of shipping

It does work as I have done it. Bolt right in without changing or moving anything.
It handles and rides better with the 121 skid than it did with the 116 skid.
You just have to run the track a little looser just like you do a m10. It doesn't upset the geometry that much until you get the setting where you want it.
Last year I bent the front pivot arm an had to make some spacers so the pivot arm from the 116 skid would fit the 121 skid (different widths). And that did upset the geometry and now it will hold the skis untill you drop the throttle. Which I don't mine because I like to play in the powder but is still fun on the trail just shift your body weight to the front.
If I had the sled with me I would take some pics of it. But I'm un the process of moving now and things are all over the place right now.
 
If you were able to swap pivot arms from the Phazer skid to the Exciter skid, then you do not have an Exciter II skid. Phazer front arms have a shock mount on the upper cross shaft. The ExII arm doesnt have any way to mount a shock to work in a Phazer skid. The only thing remotely possible would be if you had an 88 Exciter skid as the front shocks mount the same as a Phazer.
The ExII uses coil over shocks front and rear so it is totally different from ANY Phazer skid and NOTHING interchanges except some hardware.
 
The skid came out of a 92 EX2 That I had blowed up.
Throttle junkie do you think someone had swaped the skid in the EX2 before I got it?
Wish I would have known about this site before I parted it out because now I know what was wrong with it reading though all the post about them. I really liked that sled.
I'm looking at another EX2 that has some problems if I get it I'll ask you some questions Throttle Junkie as from what I've read you are the go to guy for exciters.
 
Also not trying to ruffle anybody's feathers with any of my answers. It's just that my answers are what worked for me they might not work for everybody but might work for someone.
 
Anything is possible. I've bought and seen some real gems with mismatched "make it work" crap that nothing surprises me anymore. You never know what farmer owned the sled before you. lol
 
I guess I have taken the reigns of the Exciter go to guy, and I am flattered. I cant take all the credit for what I know. Yamigod, toy doc, snodad, yamaha nutz and countless others are the guys that passed on their very applyable knowlage to me and really sped up my learning curve....thanks guys.
 
i am with throttle junkie the exII skid is not a direct swap even a EX skid is not a direct swap the closest to a direct swap it the phazer II skid as the front arm holes are perfect but the rear has to be moved back 2'' if i remember right
