    Fast M-10 into an edge chassis

    I just picked up a M-10 skid that I want to put into an edge chassis. I don't think it's going to be a direct bolt-in so new mount holes will need to be located. I have the mounting brackets (it came off of a 700 xc sp) but just need some measurements. Talked to Fast and they said it's probably...

    Installing a different seat on an Edge chassis

    I have a 2001 Polaris 800 xcsp that I want to put a different seat on(taller one). I know about the Boss seats at $400+, not that much in the budget. Just want to sit a little higher to make it easy on the knees. Would the seat off a Fusion fit with out too much of a problem. I don' care if it...

    Broken drive axle

    I somehow broke the drive axle on my 2000 Yamaha V-Max 500( must be from all the torque). It broke right next to the sprocket on the chaincase side. My question is it pretty straight forward as far as pressing off the drive sprockets. I know, take several measurements, support the hub not the...

    Knarly Toe!

    Been there, done that! John, I've taken a very small drill( don't use your Dewalt, just your finger tips) or heated a small paperclip and put a small hole in the toenail. I know it sound fun:rolleyes: but when you finally talk yourself into it, it helps relieve the pressure under the toenail. I...

    Lenny in the pages of AmSnow magazine

    Leafing thru the pages of the new issue of American Snowmobiler, I started reading the long-term test of the Yamaha Nytro XTX 1.75. All of a sudden there they were, the words of Lenny! Just thought it was kinda neat to see a JD'ers words in print!

    Morning coffee is done, time to fire up the snow blower! I don't think I've ever had to use the snowblower in November here in Lansing (Mi.). About 7-8 inches of snow on the ground.

I am trying to find out the name of it to make a donation in the name of family member. My aunt, who lives in Laurium, mother-in-law passed away recently. She...
