1Mike900: Yes, the bumper is riveted on from the inside, The top two angle brackets are riveted to the bumper with 2 small rivets then bolted on to the top part of the tunnel. It does add alot of strenght to it.
Well Darin finished up his snowflap and bumper now. I stopped over there and the rear cooler is SOLID. I doesn't even move, so I would find it hard to believe if there will be any problems with it at all down the road. BDX did a good job making these, I think anyways. Darin had a piece of aluminum bent up to where he wanted it, so the flap doesn't get in the track, and it looks really clean. Here are some pics.
What do you guys think?

I think it is because of the difference in lengths between the tunnels. Darin's sled above has a 162 and yours is a 144 so there will be quite a bit of difference in the lengths. Maybe you will have to cut yours down for it to fit right or how you want it.
Hope this helps

You'll have to post some pics when you get it all done. Where in SD are you from??Im thinking of putting this on my sled. Would it fit on a 02 moutain Cat. It is a 136" so it would stick way the heck out there but it would help my sled alot and like xf800 said it would be a wheelie bar incase my 570 decided to get powerful lol. Also how much is this kit and how long does it take to install?

's are drank haha. Mostly just cutting and riveting from what I have been told.

Ok thanks so on this kit do you just cut your running boards down then you attach your foot supports where your bumper ends on the tunnel? Sorry not much of a mechanic lol

Yep, you put the foot supports on and behind them you cut off the running boards, and you can taper the bumper or cut off as much as you want for the angle that you want.

So what did every body use to cut the running boards? Cutting torch or
I have a SLP 144 tunnel extension on my ZR, Do you think i can get this kit to fit??

It looks like BDX has discontinued this part. Does anyone else make something similar? Or maybe someone has a used one for sale.
I am mostly interested in shortening my running boards. I am tired of getting hung up in the deep powder.

Tube frame boards for the 05-11 series of M sleds will work great and H&H Customs probably can build you a bumper with no issue.
I have a few pictures posted in the following link of a 1M we built with tube frame boards and a custom bumper.
