I have a few sleds that I want to restore. One is a 87 phazer. This particular sled Id like to restore to original condition. Im pretty sure both front struts are bad. Does anybody know other than e-bay where I might find a pair. It seems I can find all kinds of new and used for the phazerII but none for the 84-89 sleds. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

They are available through Yamaha for $117.48 each. I love my '87 but, The front suspension is a little narrow. I'm looking for PZII that needs a motor to replace it. My sled has had a lot of air time and both struts are holding up fine. I'm sure you could find used ones for a reasonable price.
i have a 88 phazer out back. both struts are still thare. condition is unknown. if your intereted let me know. e-mail is best. krismis68@hotmail.com

Every Used T.S.S. sled I've bought the Knuckles and steel bushing are almost frozen or completely locked up and pivoting on the bolts ! I've bought sleds that the locked up joints won't even allow the springs to return the strut to it's normal height let, alone allow the struts to work when hitting a bump. The T.S.S sleds have always gotten a bad rap for slop developing when the ungreased steel bushing's freeze up they grind away on the nylon washers ! I have sleds that are 15+ years old that have never had a bushing kit and are almost as tight as new. Just take apart the knuckles apart every 2-3 years and the ski mount every year and grease !
