Does anyone have pics or suggestions on the mounting bracket or system used to retrofit these into the SRX chassis? I'm fabricating my own brackets and looking for pics to point me in the right direction. Thanks.

There has to be someone with experience with this. It's been done numerous times on here.
I have some sx brackets supposedly on the way so that I can mount some floats in the front of my sled. Ordered them first of Jan and haven't seen them yet. Backordered I guess. When I get them I can post up what I do with them...

replace the spacer on top with the bushing 8cr-2376b-00 and they should bolt right up.

Perfect, thanks. However, do your floats have the clevis top mount? I'm using SX Viper Ohlins with the clevis top mount to go on a SRX that uses a standard eye top mount.

hes talking about going from the clevis style to the sx/srx stlye mount. you cant get floats with a clevis end.

What spacer are you referring to?? I was looking at the parts fiche with regards to that bushing. Just trying to figure out how to make it work.

see part 16? that gets removed along with the bracket and the bushing is installed.

SRX is a different setup than that. The bracket that is used to attach the shock top to the chassis is bolted on with two bolts.

ahhh. I always assumed it was the same bulkhead as vmax and viper. looks like your only option is to make a custom bracket.

Yes. Thanks anyway.

Thanks for the pic. Is that just an old shock top mount welded on a plate?
A member here (BeTheViper) made them but essentially, yes. As you can see in the pic, the bracket protrudes through the belly pan plastic to accommodate the longer Viper shock. Are you widening the ski stance too (Venture radius/tie rods)?

Yes, I am.
