I think we've got the same sled right? Mine is a '19 Switchback Assault 144". I can't figure out how you got those nuts on the inside of the rail for the scratcher blocks on without removing the inside idler wheels for the life of me! The bolts are so long (it appears that they're longer than they need to be), so there's only about a 1/4" of space between the end of the bolt and the idler wheel. There's no way that I can spin the nut on the backside so help me! I guess I'm just going to take the idler wheels off and be done with it. Removing them and putting them back on isn't that big of a deal anyway.
Are you sure you are installing the bolts in the right direction. In the beginning of the video I show how to put everything together. It is tight but I had no problem.
@@slednewengland715 yes, I'm pretty sure. I didn't finish installing them the other night when I saw that I think I'll have to pull the idler wheels, because it was late, and I didn't want to get into all of that at that time. I'm going to try installing them tonight. BUT, they've changed their parts some. They now look a little different than yours do, and the mounting blocks also have an additional hole than yours have. So that may be part of the installation problem for me as well. Yes, I've watched your video at least 10 times to be sure that I was doing everything the same as you did.
Thanks for the video. I used this to help me install the Ski-Doo scratchers with the blocks to my 2020 Indy XC 600 Axys 137. It is a super clever design. I originally purchased the Polaris scratchers but stopped the install when I saw it called for removing the idler wheels. This design is so much better, you can keep the idler wheels plus no drilling. Also, I had some questions that I emailed to One Rig Design. He responded in about 8 minutes to 3 emails with more questions. I could not be more satisfied with the product. Oh, and I tested running them briefly in reverse, no problems. Sure beats the Polaris scratchers. One forgotten backup and there ruined. These were not. Great informative video, thanks for taking the time to post.
Oh man id love it!!! On the trails off Moose Alley, hell yea. 🙌 I'm Sadie. I live in the Whites. I only hike the trails but would love snowmobiling them. 😍
@@slednewengland715 shouldn't you have put the plate on the inside of the rail? That way you would keep the appearance of your color coded rail brace. Still hold the scratcher with no issues.
Your One Rig link to the scratchers is not working. Do you know the part number of those scratchers? I would like to do the same set up on my Matryx SBA. Thanks
Some moose! Yeah! Wicked rippah! My nephew just sold his Assault. Brother just sold his sled. Got one riding partner left older brother and he likes to downhill ski so I think I'm gonna have to recruit the wife/best friend. I see a 146" Matryx in my future!
I struggle with battery life also. I have a bunch of them and keep swapping them out. Make sure your GoPro is in a waterproof case. They helps a lot. Also store your batteries in one of your pockets to keep them warm.
I just bought a ‘21 Matryx Assault. I love everything about the sled but the darting. It’s bad to the point of being unsafe. Checking the toe and the FTS / RTS tomorrow. What did you think of the Grippers?
The grippers are better skis for that sled. Try shimming your skis before making that purchase. Maybe try stiffening your front track shock also. Google shimming Polaris skis.
Hi Steven, great videos. I ride in Pittsburg and Island Pond, VT. Heard you say you have an Ecobost I think? How do you like it? I'm looking to buy a new 3.5 EcoBoost F150 or possibly 5.0. Are you happy with yours/no problems?
@@802UpNorthAdventures Yes. I am hoping we have a good weekend. I knew about the Buck Rub but I haven't heard about Tall Timbers. If they were both close that would be terrible. Small world. We ride with people from Revere.
here in fort kent maine, we always called them Gorby's. the loggers would feed them all the time, so there really good taking food from your hands.. do u guy's ride up here every year ?
Nice video. Very beautiful scenery up there. I've been watching some of your videos. They're good. Pretty new channel (from January). Keep up the good work. Can't wait to see more videos.
We just missed you Guys. We were at Tall Timber the 14-18th stayed in the Juniper.. Big Steve needs some better tires on that Truck! Snow or All Terrains FTW!
