tricks to installing skid

[yellowandfast]

Hello-

I am in the proccess of installing a 96 xt skid in my 92 vmax 750-4.

I carefully measured all holes and drilled accordingly.

I "dry fit" the skid in the tunnel and everything worked smoothly.

I now installed the track and cannot get the holes to line up with the mounts on the skid.


Any help would be greatly appriciated,

Thanks

Jeremy

make sure you loosened the track adjusters all the way near the rear wheels of the skid so you'll be able to slide that axle forward. This will give you more slack in the track to move stuff around.

Yep make sure the read axle is all the way forward and you can slide the skid around front and back a little start mounting by the front axle and then work backwards to hang the other points.

shove skid right up behind axle drivers..and swing back of skid into place,,force skid back in front of drivers.Start with front bolts,rear and middle.Loosen the transfer rod bolts on bottom of rods seemed to really help a lot also.

nope, none of those suggestions were it,
had to flip a bracket that mounts the w arm

skid in and drops to be made tomorrow


thanks
