2018 - 2019 front end difference

[sledneck322]

Can anyone confirm the bulkhead stud spacing on the 2018 pro rmk compared to the 2019 pro rmk with.

I have a full skinz front end from my 2018 pro rmk with shocks. If damage occured, I planned on using the components from my 2018. However, I was told the stud spacing on the bulkhead is different with the react front end on my 2019 850 pro rmk.

As far as I know the bulkhead bolt studs are the same dimentions as the 16's thru 18's. I'm pretty sure the sway bay length is narrower on the 19's? Obviously the A arm width is narrower on the 19's.

Thank you. That is what I thought. I just had someone tell me I could not use a complete 18 front end on my 19 because the studs for the arm spacing is different.

Stud spacing is the same as well as the sway bar mounting to the lower A-arm, at least it was on the specific aftermarket A-arm kit that's for the 16-18 Pro-RMKs that I test fitted to an 850 Pro-RMK for one of the snow shows last fall. Everything bolted up.

I measured the sway bar width on my 2018 and my 2019. The sway bar is about 3 inches narrower on the new 2019 front end. Probably close enough to use narrower arms from older Axys sleds but not perfect IMO.

I bent a 36" alt impact lower on my 17 and couldn't find one so i went to the dealer and bought a 19 lower and it bolted right up. Sway bar link had to go on opposite side and wasn't really straight up and down but i rode it 3 days and really didn't notice much difference side to side. I was a little worried about bottoming the shock out so i bumped the pre load up a little and didn't jump much. $275 for a lower seems a little steep but it got me back on the snow and i didn't miss any time.
