Gripper Ski help

[Stanleyd]

Hey Guys,

I have an 06 Fusion with stock spindles. My stock skis require replacment. I ride mostly trails. From researching this site most people say to go with Gripper skis. My questions are..

-What year/model do I buy? (part number?)
-Do they mount to 06 Fusion stock spindles/bushings?
-Are they the right ski for trail riding?

Any help would be very much appreciated.

i don't think the different part number matter?? as long as they are grippers they should work?? never seen them look any different, and i have 3 sets of them on my sleds..

they will mount to your sled perfect...

i ride lots of trail with the wifey, and lots of POW riding with the boys (or at least i try) and they are GREAT SKIS...

you wont be disappointed in them...

Check bolt and spacers

Before you order skis, check to see if you can get your old ones off! You may need to order new bolts and spacers at the same time. They seem to fuse themselves together if they aren't lubricated regularly. Be sure not to damage the spindle face when you hack them off.

That's exactly why I am buying the grippers... was going to move the bolt hole 3/4" back on OEM fusion ski but the bolt/spacer were fused together... had to cut ski off and get new bolt hardware. Thanks for the input.

I must be the only person that thinks Grippers suck. I went from Powder Pros to Grippers (let my wife try the PP's and she won't give em back because she likes them so much better) and I can't wait to buy another set of SLPs.

Got powder pros too. One of the guys I ride with got a new dragon and immediately took off the grippers and installed powder pros.
