I made one out of a 98 summit 670. Narrowed. Locked the rear suspension and it works beautifully 😊
Glad you have a dialed unit! You been out yet this year?
Been looking into building a water sled and the what to do
look at these sick edits
Stock motors for the win! Just need some throttle and rider talent lol
Running a ‘96 Formula Z 583. Goes great but seems to overheat. Do you do anything to cool the sleds? Reg coolant? I have Evan’s waterless coolant but haven’t put it in yet.
i would make sure your water pump / thermostat is working good, we only cool the sleds down on shore with ice and blowers.
@@SnowmaxPerformance will do. Do you think I could run without the thermostat or is restriction necessary to keep coolant from heating up too much? Going to add a temp gauge. Sled was smoking like crazy after about two minutes of running and 3 short runs about 100 yds. Thought it was smoked but compression is fine and seems to run ok. Hitting the water again soon down here in FL😁
@@jayv17 that’s overheating to fast, I would run the thermostat. Something fishy is going on.
I’m waterproofing my pro x right now! Any ideas on where I can get an already shortened front end for it? 03 pro x 700
Unfortunately for that you will have to make the arms yourself

When he said anything below 600 your gonna run out of power. Yeah I’m dedicated now🤣💀
We have tried some fan cooled sleds with no luck haha
what kind of gas tanks are those?
@@218flatlandrippas wahl bros
Did you just cut every down a few inches in the front end to suck it in?
No this one I just changed the shocks, the track I hand cut the lugs
You said for the good rake you sucked the skid all the way up in there. What do you mean by that?
Changing the mounting to different holes
Couple good units
How much did you cut off the tire rods for these builds ??
I didn’t cut them
You just slammed the shocks that’s it for the front end? And then stiffer front shock spring ? With loose limiter straps ?
@@joelcroteau-vq5lb yup had no idea what I was doing, when I first built it but it worked haha. 89 jag shocks in the front, made my own limiter strap, and 280 lb front spring in the skid shock
Greasy units
