    It actually looks pretty good its way better than the ol' duck tape seat cover

    I know someone already said it but the electric turkey Carver is what the pros use and you can get them cheap. Great vids I've really enjoyed watching them. There is also a mod for the 800 skidoo motor. Material is welded to the bottom of the piston skirt

    Love your work Louis! Went a did a hack job on my seat the other day. Ended up cutting out a gap in the middle and putting the two ends together because I liked the backing of the seat. Then a good ol' rattle can paint job. Gotta get the rough look lol. Killer work man. Thanks for all the help.

    Good job, Louie. Hack into it I say. An 80 grit flapper disc on a grinder is also great for shaping foam.

    Why do you have to change out the suspension? Couldn't you just play with shocks and springs instead of tossin a $2000 setup?

    • @PowerModzOfficial

      You could work in the suspension - but dont forget that my suspension had 36000 kms on it, by the time i rebuild everything how much am in into a rebuilt 2003 suspension? The ezryde i put into it I paid 800 for used with low kms so I got a suspension light years ahead of the old rev suspension for just a bit more.

    Cool My father would mod racing seats as an Upholster and the trick was use an Electric Carving Knife on the foam, but don't tell the wife if its missing for turkey dinner. LOL

    i actually think that was very well put together. probably going to do something similar as im buying an 03 rx1 soon. so lots of weight reduction mods. Good Job!

    You could take some vacuum line and split it to cover up the rough plastic edges on the seat

    Were did you get your skinz seat? I look on the site and i didn't found one for mxz 2003?

  • @HK80gib
    @HK80gib 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Did the same thing to my rev seat. Use a box style cheese grator to shape the foam works great!

  • @donaldfuller6617
    @donaldfuller6617 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thats one way to narrow them up.lol You are right about the Rev seat being to wide Thats why I did a Poo seat conversion. Electric turkey carver works good for cutting the foam.

    • @PowerModzOfficial
      @PowerModzOfficial  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh i like that idea!

    • @donaldfuller6617
      @donaldfuller6617 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      PowerModz Work very well for getting smoother cuts on the foam.

    Have you painted the rev? If so, which kind of paint did you use? I tried plastidip but it's not strong enough to hold...

    Get some adhesive Velcro to lock the seat pan in place. Name brand Velcro is impressive. Split fuel line or some heat to roll the seat pan edge helps too. Just thinking. Good day.

    @xtremeterrain1 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    louis not to be mean but i notice that you don't have a tail light don't you think you should add one. Where i live it is illegal to drive your snowmobile without working tail lights, not sure about your laws so just a safety suggestion
