phj 08-20-2002, 09:26 PM How hard is it and how do you go about changing out the suspension blocks?. I have one that the fiberglass nut is worn and it can not be turned. http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif Paul performancex 08-21-2002, 02:20 PM If you're talking about those triangles, suspend the rear of the sled in the air so the skid hangs, force the spring off the block and slide the block off. *Easy. performancex 08-21-2002, 02:21 PM p.s. *there exists aluminum blocks to replace those soft plastic ones. *not sure where you'd get them, tho. catrules2000 08-21-2002, 02:36 PM The aluminum blocks are the way to go. *I bought mine from Black Magic. jayjaysin 08-21-2002, 02:46 PM Black magic is running an internet special on them right now, ends today or tomorrow I think. *They want $40/pr. *You can get black, purple or silver. *I thought about ordering them for looks and reliability, but $40 can be better spent if the plastic ones are still good. Black Magic Racing (http://www.blackmagicracing.com) phj 08-21-2002, 06:40 PM Yes I'am replacing the plastic ones with *billet aluminum ones and I ordered them from Hi-performance Engineering out of Thief River Falls, MN. $39.95* www.hiperf.com * Paul http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif Trail Cat 08-21-2002, 06:56 PM Find a way to lift the back of the sled about 12-18 off the ground. *Remove the bogie wheel next to the long leg of the spring. *take off the piece that holds the spring to the suspension rail. *When the tension releases on the spring, the long arm will hang straight down. (this is why the sled needs to be in the air) *the hole spring will be loose and the blocks will slide right off. ZREFI 08-22-2002, 11:55 AM GripNRipRacing (http://www.gripnripracing.com/products.htm) has the billet adjusting blocks for $34.95. *Been using his products for 2 years, great quality. *Also, his blocks provide an added % of spring rate over the stock adjusting blocks. http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif mopar4u 08-23-2002, 10:35 AM I think Dennis Kirk sells both plastic and aluminum ARCTICZRT600 08-23-2002, 05:26 PM I found the easiest way to replace them is to roll the sled on it's side, just as if you were checking your carbides. *AC's are balanced to do this, you can even roll them over by just lifting a ski handle. | ||
