S Chassis Mod and vintage sled pics lets see them
- Thread starter wildcard28
- Start date
94 F-chassis to an S-chassis. 583. Wish it was a 670, would stretch it to 151/159 .
My boy had a lot of fun on that old sled, we've still got it, good shape and runs great, just not enough flotation, should stick a 144x16x1.75 under it if I could find one.

That is one of my favorite pics. It would have looked a lot better if my dad wasn't so quick on the camera button. My step-bro and I were launching that thing about 10-12ft in the air. Had to hit it fast to land on the transistion about 60ft away. Not a very steep take-off. Considering it was a sled we borrowed, it was a very good day.
That sled wheelied but was very tame and a decent climber. The M-10 out back helped it a ton.

Few new pics i took yesterday. Ordering New Simmons skis soon and hopefully a new(er) hood.
Bead blasted the Pipe and Y-pipe, then threw on some 1200* flat black. MBRP can on the way.
Straigtening the running boards, had to drill and grind off the old metal brackets from the inside, making some new 1/8" steel brackets and some Fishbone board supports, or mabey some Rox sled treads...

Nice sled,
I added a mod or two to mine this week, I built my own LH Throttle Control
I bought a Gold Finger control from Biscycle shop and made the mechanisn on the thumb control, Also adding a Safety Pin and need to add a few finishing touches, And also made a set of Custom Trailing arms out of the front part of the original arms, Just need to paint them. I am actually going to make a set or two from scratch in the future and maybe a set out of Chromoly.

kool , that should work great..And alot cheaper than the aftermarket ones too.( be careful your jacket dont catch it tho! makes for some fancy high speed manouvering lol)... Did you just use the exsisting spindle tube from your old T-arms?
Thank You, ya I used the spindle tubes from the original trailing arms and control rod mounts , I beefed up the shock mounts they are sort of a rough draft until I make some from scratch.
Can`t seem to get the pics of them loaded cause it tells me I used them in another thread.

of the hood, whats it cost for a hood like that?
