Hey all,
been having the itch for a srx for some time now and I recently found a nice 02 srx locally with 9100km with a blown motor...
got it for a decent price and I really wanted a new project sled...
The Pros:
- Chassis is straight and all plastics are in great shape...not 1 white mark on the bellypan!!
- new arrow skis and carbides , gonna swap for c&a adx's I think
- new 1.25 ripsaw and new anti ratchet drivers, and hyfax
- bender transfer rods
- v force reeds
- MBRP Silencer
what it needs
- find a white skidplate, paint grills white, and black headlight decal
- install c&a skis and oem Yamaha tunnel braces
- find a shop that can do oem style graphics...its missing the right side trailing arm decal...
- going to remove front suspension and powdercoat it all black this summer (new decals again! lol)
- full engine, it has a seized connecting rod, 2 bad cylinders and heads.(luckily i found a very nice 00 srx motor on ebay that's on the way)
- full detail job
- sandblast pipes and heat shields and powercoat shields chrome, all new grafoil exhaust donuts
- clean carbs and set it up to 01 specs
- use turks clutching setup 4.5 grams in both holes, yel-sil-yel primary spring, 51/43 helix with green sec spring wrapped at 70 with a new belt
- the hood is missing a piece by the left latch, so going to repair with a snowmobile hood repair kit and fiberglass...
- theres something broken in the front arm of the rear suspention...its sitting on the bump stops on the front arm...
- new drive chain and gears for piece of mind (stock gearing best?)
- all bearings and seals replaced on chassis
hopefully in the next week or 2 I will get time to start this project!
cant wait to have a kick *** SRX on the snow! cant wait to here that signature SRX growl!!!
also guys where is the best place to get oem Yamaha parts? (am in Canada but will buy from the states if the deal is that good!)
also if you feel I should add something please let me know!
