HUH, Rockmeister did the EXACT same tip as mine, BTW, where did my tip go?

 

[03viperguy]

oh, when does the pole close?

 

[MrSled]

Matt, yours was on a short track. I was informed of a problems with yours, I tried emailing you and pm you to talk about it and heard nothing. Bethaviper told me about the problem. Here is yours and maybe some can explain why one works on the long track skid and it wont on the short.

Okay, that is fine, I wasn't sure why I couldn't find it anymore. I have run this setup on my sled the entire year without any problems and I know several others who are running it this way without any problems so if someone could inform me of the problem, I would consider it. Thanks

during bottoming the upper wheels on the fra mount will bottom out on the front idlers.

I have never got my skid to collapse that far while ridding. I just added another set inside of my rails mid rail and we couldn't get the skid to colapse that far with me jumping on the rear of the tunnel ext. Maxdlx

I also did the mod when matt brought it out last season and have had no problems with wheels scrubbing against each other.Thats with the 5.350 s as well and they have not fallen off like the small after market ones do.

 

[MrSled]

Its good to hear more feedback on this, thanks.

 

[maxdlx]

I am going to try it on mine, and will also post pics of where I added 2 more large wheels to my skid sometime today. Maxdlx

I did it to both my pro action skids. One 136" and one 121" stretched to a 144". Never had any problems, but didn't get as much riding in as I'd have liked after the wheel relocate. Darn weather.

 

[pro116]

when you are going up hill and hit a mogul your suspension will bottom all the way.Try jacking the front of your sled up then standing on back of your sled.
The 136" is different than the 121"

 

[Mysledblows]

I'll have to check it out. That one is still sitting in the garage. I rode it pretty hard for 3 days in Wyoming without any problems though. My wife is going to think I'm nuts when I start jacking and jumping on my sled tonight.

Actually now that I've typed that I think if I say that to her I'll be sleeping in the garage. "Honey, I'll be in the garage for a while jacking and jumping on the sled" Her response will be something like "just don't come back in the house until your finished"
