I picked up a 98 ZL 500 a couple weeks back for 150 with what the kid said was a small problem. Well it turns out the crank seems to be split inside.
Up to current a friend of mine traded me a 1993 550 EXT for some work I did on his truck. The 550 EXT smokes like a chimney and seems to have an excessive amount of oil in the exhaust/everywhere.
My question for today is, can I swap the 93 550 into the 98 ZL machine? What will I need to do. Both machines are carbed with everything looking the same, but I need to know the clutches will match up.
As I'm sure you're all very well aware by the information in my post...I am very new to snowmobiles. My father had an old school cat a while back that we used to ice fishing, but other than that my knowledge is limited. Any help would be greatly appreciated on both getting the 550 runnin sweet and the swap thoughts.
