RE: Skidoo Rev XP snowmobile hop-up

Techyjoe - I saw that you replaced the Duratrax springs with the stock ones. I just installed the same shocks on my front suspension and as-is they compress nice but the rebound from the spring is...

RE: Skidoo Rev XP snowmobile hop-up

I was going to get one from SDP/SI like this. From what I can tell the flange diameter is about 30mm which will be a little large so i was going to just trim it down. Maybe I'm reading it wrong but...

RE: Skidoo Rev XP snowmobile hop-up

I'm still going for the single shock/dual swing arm design mostly due to the small size, area to work with. I got a pic today of some wheels that I have had machined, I suspect they should all be...

RE: Skidoo Rev XP snowmobile hop-up

Nice, lucky you. I have my custom wheels being cut right now and then it's on to rear suspension! Techyjoe - do you think that a 380 would be too small for this sled? Is that the actual size of the...

RE: Skidoo Rev XP snowmobile hop-up

RE: Skidoo Rev XP snowmobile hop-up

Awesome, will you let me know how the skids turn out? If all is well I would pay you to cut me a set too. So are you gonna try the M10 setup or go with the mono-shock?

RE: Skidoo Rev XP snowmobile hop-up

I ended up drawing some skids or side plates but can't find anyone to cut them. If you can post your prints or plans I would like that. I also got a Polaris I'm trying to work on.
