Does anybody know what you need for mounts if you put grippers on an M?

The new SLP Mohawk skis also have the gripper type bumps on the top of them, if that's what you are looking for. They may also bolt right up.

One of these threads that I have shared, have the how to. on making everthing fit. I dont remember which one it is, sorry. But it shows you how to make the correct modifications. Its simple and easy, and it works.

I keep hoping someone like SLP would start making a convertion.

I'd go with some better skis like the c&a bx skis

IMO the Gripper or the SLP is the best ski for the Cat For Mt. riding. The C&A are to square on the tail, like the stock skis. And makes for some of the side hill issues. Spent alot of time with this last spring, cutting and trimming on perfectly good skis. All for the cause!

I found it finally. this gives good info on what you will need to do.

I didn't use anything extra other than some thin aluminum bar stock pieces as a spacer between the cat rubber and the ski.

I run my skis in the narrowest position and had to cut down the lip on one side of the groove on the grippers. I just used some end cutters and got it as flat as I could.

I just used original ski rubbers for 2014 Cat & used Polaris hardware & jammed in the bolt no cutting of anything nice tight fit?

I just picked up another set of grippers, I am going to try not doing any cutting on this set.

Ok thanks if I could find a used pair I sure think they would be better than stock.

Try your polari dealer, they may have take offs.

I may have a set I will be selling. should know in a couple weeks.

In blower snow, they are.

About the only thing worse about them is the tips are kind of soft so you can auger them into stiffer snow pretty hard doing drops.

I do wish they were a little stiffer. But then they wouldn't work as well at lower speeds.......

ok pm me if you want rid of them
