Non-Slash snow flap on Slash tunnel

[sledhed]

The 24 scratchers work stellar. Mounted farther forward, big paddle on end plus they are twisted so the paddle is angled and throws snow towards sled. Even loads running boards. They do work. Lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink.

I am sure the 24 scratchers work better than the older Holz style ones, but are they the only or the best answer? Hmmm... let's compare paddles...

Yes the Polaris are way better than the Holz I’ve ran both. Some of the Polaris advantage is they are mounted more forward on the rail. I think they have much more spring tension too so they really dig in.

Thanks! Ironically that design still would not have worked very well in those snow conditions. Maybe well enough since they are mounted further forward. But the style of the end of the wire style scratchers like the Ibex was simply "drawing a line" in the snow and nothing was going up in the air to speak of into the skid or tunnel. The OTTP ice storm scratchers have that bigger v-shaped foot on the end that were throwing stuff up and not just drawing a line in the snow...

My dad's axys has the ice storms, I am consistently much cooler than him in all conditions

Will the new 24 scratchers fit on an axys chasis? I have a 2020 for a spare /low snow sled and just broke a stock set of scratchers.

I’m sure with a drill bit you’ll be more than able to find a spot for them on your Axys

Yes they fit they come with instructions and a metal template for drilling it’s really easy https://publications.polaris.com/in...ns/Snowmobile/0000882711.XML.xml?onepage=true

It is not hard to do, I have done about six now. Need to purchase the following from the non slash pro rmk. Also, you have to drill out one of the two rivets that hold the flap mounting brackets. POO wants $4 a piece for those rivets, you can go buy a box of them from any hardware store.
