phazer skid

Post by chrisrider63 »

Did you need to drill new holes for the phazer skid?? Im thinking of doing the same thing i cant wait to ride it this winter, I was gonna just restore it but why not ride it?? I remember from some of your posts that you said you ride it like a trail sled.

depending on the year the phazer should also be a proaction skid... which as far as i know means it bolts right in... now im sure the newer phasers are probably proaction plus in which case youll have to drill holes but as long as it doesnt have transfer rods you should be fine... the only real advantage of a phaser skid is the likelyhood that is newer and therefore the shocks arent junk like it seems most vmaxs are

the skid was in the sled when i got .they installed a bracket wich lowered the suspension mount just below the tunnel if ya look at the tunnel you can see the original mounting hole in the middle of the rivets. the suspension is way different than a pro-link though it has torsion springs and the shocks dont have coil springs..if ya need measurements ill post some pics
