I need help - M-10 in an Apex Mountain

[PistonBroke]

Hey guys,
I have a 2006 Apex MCX turbo I just bought used from another snowester (will not name names at this time).

Major major issue with the M-10 skid. It's W-2 live axle version. I am pretty sure that it was mounted in the tunnel wrong, which I can confirm since the track tensions up 1/3 the way down the travel. Took it out for the first time, and promptly bent the tunnel at the rear mount points. Rear mount points look lower than they should be, and utilize timbersled drop brackets. No internal tunnel stiffeners are installed. No idea if the front mount points are correct at this time.

The sled came with M10 tunnel stiffeners (very strong looking) that I am sure will end up back in the sled when the smoke clears.

Does anyone have the correct mounting point locations for the M-10 W-2 in an Apex?

I would greatly appreciate any help. How about a few photos from you guys who have similar setups?

Thanks guys,
Pistonbroke

I'm no expert, but I know a little. What are your measurements from the center of the front mounting holes to the a flat face on your drive axle ? Also need to know measurements center to center from front mount holes to rear, and distances from the top of the tunnel to the mounting holes. Pics would also help.

Where are you located? Shock, live axle, jack set up are all very important as well.

Probably not mounted properly using tsled drop brackets, should have internal or external support.

This is for a nytro, but the geometry would be very similar. I got it from Ron at snowandmud.com
