Don't know much about the VM sus. My SRV had the earlier 116 style and I swapped it out to a xtra 10 with Fox shocks and 121 track. Been looking at a A/C sno pro sus. for the V Max, not sure yet. Do they make good rebuildable shocks for the VM sus?

did you have any luck getting the nuts off without ripping the studs out of the rubber?

Never tried that one but I have put some different engines in different chassis, including liquid engines in fan cooled chassis. Anything can be done. Check its not taller for steering shaft clearance or if its wider, having to alter the frame is a job. After that, look at the location of the water ...

Not sure if I follow all the correct series of events. If it was running, and you had a gas line issue, causing one side to run out of gas and more importantly, oil, its possible that that side stuck, even at idle where it should have been minor but could have caused damage. I would pull the pipe of...

Hope my first answer didn't jump the gun here but I too assumed that we had the problem diagnosed. I also agree that a hone won't do much to a chrome bore, but it should clean off any of the rust or ring if there is some stuck to the wall.

Now days most parts stores or places like Harbor Fright sell the small Vacuum pumps, people use them for draining oil in boats or lawnmowers. There 2-3 ft tall, round usually and have a handle like a bike air pump. They have a 1/4 in hose that you can push down in the case and pump, it will suck out...

Use a good penetrating oil, something like Kroil or PB Blaster, not WD40. Spray around the rings and let it sit, sometimes for days. Use a piece of wood as a block and a rubber mallet and tap ( not beat) the pistons gently till they come loose. Pay attention to whats happening, besure there is nothi...

My problem is whenever I see a good deal on a Comet I buy ,almost every sled has one, I never know what they came off of, change arms and springs till I get what I want, and just keep tryin different pullers till one fits. I might have one of a Yammi, but its probably on a Skidoo or A/C, the one on ...

Interesting, did the first years use the same 116 track as the SRV and actully I guess Ii never asked, or measured mine are all VM's 121?

Heres a cool link, thanks to the SRV site, http://www.snowmobileclutchpullers.com/ Figure out what size you should need, I then went to a good hardware store and bought bolts grade 8 and used a piece of solid steel tubing alto a cut of bolt ( remove the head) of the right dia, to fit down inside and...

Thanks for the pic. I don't see why the lower end of the up right bar couldn't bolt to the lower knee action bolt. I guess a good question would be, why did they move the NA to the back on some sleds?

If I could, I have a favor to ask, Would it be posible to take some close up pic's of the sway bar. Would like to see how it attaches to the ski and the link on the side. I have two sleds that I would like to build one for, A VM and a SRV. I also not sure how they did it with the knee action towards...

Well actually it was his brother Tony and Tony really shot his mouth off on TV, Force still don't take no crap The races were great, they have come so far with track prep, almost all the races were good. 5 years ago you couldn't run those numbers. I've been racing since the later 60's it amazes me w...

Spent the weekend at the US Nationals in Indy, my sunburn hurts

I like the analog style gauges, have one one my SRV, easy enough to see where the needles are without really looking, also easy to see if the needles are both the same reading My kids, ( well their 29 and 30) use everything digital on all their karts and they like digital, have no problem seeing the...
