lol I was over there tonight and we had the skid in it, fit like a glove and put the skid where it needed to be. Chad got pics of it he will post them soon
If you guys have it down that easy I should have been in touch the last year when I wrestled it into my srx. I swear I was at it for 3 hours or so by myself. Those 192 studs really add some weight!
Well as Jeff stated we did put the skid in to see how it would line up with all the new mounting holes. And like he said it when in great. When the sled was stretched to 136 a couple of years ago, I ended up having to suck the limiter straps all the way up to keep from burning through hyfax in less than 30 miles... while backing all the pressure off the center spring.
Well,, when we initially started to put the skid in last night it would not go into the front mount holes. Hence we had to let the limiters out to relax the suspension... YEEEEE HAAAAAAAA. Ding Ding this was the solution all along.
After letting out the limiters it slipped rite in the tunnel no problem, and the skid sat on the ground great. The rear being nice and flat. Now will it sit different with the track in? I dont think so, I think it will be fine......
Pictures are Dark sorry.. More to come
Mark MMMMurpppphy, spare belts huh lol that was a good one. You are always welcome.....
Dnale yes I could see it being tough to wrestle in yourself. damn your are only in ypsi...
