Got a sled down back in that I am trying to get out on Wed. Does anyone have a buddy tow pro they could rent or sell to me in the Boise area? Advice and any other options would be greatly appreciated.
I have one but it is from the 80's and it probably is not long enough for todays longtracks. You are welcome to it if needed. I am off on Wed and would be glad to help but my sled is down at the moment. I will pm you my #.
call moto one by 11 (preferably a little before since they place their order at 11) tomarrow and if western has it in stock they can have it that after noon around 3-4. or pay $5 extra and you can go pick it up at western a hour after you call any time.
western part number 29-1019
retail is only $67 and of course they will give you a discount off of that. Says it fits upto a 166 track.
their number is 288-0789
you know where it is.
I didn't realize they were that cheap. Might have to think about getting one. Almost had to try to tow a buddys sled out of a bad spot last sat. Electrical short or water in the rectifier regulator plug and it would not start. After messing with it for a while we got it to start and rode it out. Should be alot easier to tow a sled out with one of those then just removeing the belt.
I've used a palsstic tub type toboggan before to to a long track sled out. They run under $30 and have some runners built in.
I also have built a tow bar that will hook to the ski loops and seems much safer towing with than straps.
pm me and I can get you a phone # if you want to try it.

put the track of the dead sled backwards on the tunnel of the tow rig - release the torsion springs and turn the skis around backwards. ratchet strap the sucker down tight and take off riderless. it will come out of anything.
Only if you want to
Got her out yesterday. Good thing I had GPS coordinates as there was about 2' of fresh covering it up. W managed to get it back to the road out with a couple hrs to spare so we played in the fluff a little. It was great snow with a good base and 2-3 ft of fluff on top. Now to get the turbo re-freshed before I miss all this good stuff
Thankd for the offers from everyone, let me know if I can ever return the favor ( hopefully not, but you never know)
