What to do with my tunnel???Dang trailing arms...Need help fast, 12" on the ground
Ok guys.
To start it off, last weekend I was trying to ride up this small hill off the ice and it had about a 6" drop, my ski went straight into it and didnt seem like a big deal. It was then toed in a slight bit on the right side. I got home and discovered that the trailing arm mount on the right side was also very slightly bent. I just adjusted the toe and beat the tunnel back down, all was A-OK. Last nite, I didnt see the set of railroad tracks we were crossing and it just felt like I had hit a big rock, no biggie. I get the the next stop and see that the same trailing arm that the tunnel was bent on was almost at a 45 degree angle straight up and down!!!!!!! Still strong enough to ride, off we go. Down the trail a few miles, I get a warning light, coolant. Find a hole in the rear heat exchanger on the right side, got a pick in it. Bring it home and find the tunnel is kinda messed up more now. The track is riding too closely to the tunnel on the right side, almost like its not at the 90 degree angles like its soppost to be. Got a new trailing arm coming, dont know how to straighten the tunnel>????? Need some ideas guys, we've got about 8 on the ground and 5 coming tomorrow.....
