Will the 09 M spindles fit on the 07 M

[1100Cat]

Does anyone know if the 09 spindles will fit the 07 sleds and if so is the turning radius better than the 08 spindles.

Can be done with new spindles and tie rod/ steering plate cross over parts. Steering is much improved over 07.
Cost in States about 50 buck---Cost in Canada about 5000.00 bucks

05 through 08

So what all would a guy have to change to update an older m?

I put 2008 spindles on my 2007 and all I changed was the two spindles and ball joint ends by the spindles but I could never get the ski alignment quite right but it's ride-able.

I was able to convert my 07 for less than that.

All you need is:
R and L spindles
08/09 spindle ball ends
2 jam nuts

Then flip both tie rods around, remove the old inner ball end (now on the outside) and replace with the new spindle ball end (that is narrower and fits the new spindle. You need to flip them to get the threading correct for the new spindle ball end.

Mine worked very nicely and was around $275 to do complete.
