Cleaner looking, not tipped up, not sure were yamaha gets there rails but the Iceage rails are very strong.

We can tip them or leave them flat. Flat looses you some trail manners with the extra track pushing. The hot ticket this year for guys climbing has been flat rails, especially on boosted sleds. Dealers choice on that one

Timbersled skid

If I was doing it from scratch again, I would go with non-tipped ice age rails predrilled for the timbersled. It would save your stock skid so that it can be easily put back in. Its also a quicker swap than cutting your stock rails. The tip-up sucks for a boosted sled, can you say wheelie machine. For the little but of "push" on trails, it is worth the flat rails. I pressed my stock rails flat when I installed my timbersled and it holds the front down much better than stock, about 500 miles and they have not bent. Note that I did not try the timber with the tipped up rails. JMHO

how do the flat one work on a stock apex I am in the process of building a stock apex and shedding as much weight as possible I already modified my stock rails but I am seriously thinking about ice age rails, they are the same as timbersleds aren't they?
thanks mick

Thanks Jeremy, but if he is going for light I would guess he would want our strictly TSled rails
