I would like to do this to my sx viper....I would like to know what kind of skid this is thanks

I have some more questions just not sure how to ask them yet

 

[Mysledblows]

Looks like pro-action arms with a set of aftermarket rails, transfer rod eliminator kit, and a two wheel kit

 

[jdub-viper 700]

Could I ride this on a trail at all? Or no?

 

[bluemonster1]

gonna be an expensive skid and track..Trail ride until the hyfax go on you.

 

[jdub-viper 700]

I couldn't find a skid like this, where is a good place for one? And can you explain what you mean about the hyfax in this situation blue? Thanks

 

[bluemonster1]

the sliders(hyfax) won't last to long before they melt.With that track(tall lug) you won't be getting any snow to cool the sliders.You would need ice scratchers for sure to throe snow and ice toward the track/sliders.

 

[jdub-viper 700]

Ill be going between semi packed 6in snow to 3ft powder and I plan on getting ice scratchers.

 

[bluemonster1]

good to know....have fun with it when you get her done..send us pics..

looks like a timbersled suspension. I dont think they make proaction based kits any more but an apex kit could be made to fit. Or you might be able to find a used one.

Would getting an apex to fit alot of work ?
And I was thinking 156'' 162" or 174" for the skid what do you guys think ?for non groomed trails (mostly fields) and deep snow

 

[staggs65]

you would just have to get the measurements for the mounting points. drill new holes and install new reinforcement plates. Not any difference to any other skid swap.

Alright thanks

yamaha proaction parts attached to cat m series rails.

 

[jdub-viper 700]

Should I get a 162" or 174" skid?
Im getting a k-mod m series skid kit just not sure what size any suggestions??

That skid is from a member of the site. He used arctic cat 141 rails and retro fitted the pro action arms on them. you could do this with your viper and slap a 1.25 in lug track on it. It is going to be very time consuming just a heads up. Search around in the mountain forum and ask around.

message mtndreamer for details about the modification
