So good you have your son working side by side with you. Your able to show him everything you know all the while creating priceless life long memories. Good on ya mate!😎👍
Great video guys 🍻 Nice plumber butt shot btw lol So good to see Trenton so involved with all these sleds that we used to have at his age 👍. Can you imagine how great a mechanic he’ll be when he’s in his 50’s! He’s good now! If you’re ever thinking about selling any of your herd let me know 👍 Cheers 🍻🍻🍻
One thing I love about this channel is that you give the average person the courage to tackle restoring a vintage sled. Also I think just like in car restoration, its important to keep the vintage snowmobiles running for future generations. I have much more fun riding vintage snowmobiles iver the newer ones. My favorite Polaris was the 70's 500 3 banger. Would love to see a restoration of one of those. The white body with blue center.
The plastic carrier wheels on rear swing arm, I don't like the design. And the two bushings per side. I usually swap the rear swing arm out for a later design with the carrier wheels on the inside, in my opinion prevents track from hitting shock tower. i believe there is a two piece design vs the single piece design you had to remove material from to allow gas shocks to fit. Wedge Indy glad to see video on youtube. cheers!
I still have my 91 indy 500 sks. Yes the reverse was an option along with Electric start. We also had a 90 Indy 650 sks with a big optional gas tank. We had the optional Reverse kit, two up seat and rear rack. We didn't have the Electrical start because of triple pipes. Kinda Sad it got smashed into the top of a telephone pole. Darn kids(aka Me at the time_) My Dad Broke 3 ribs and My knee pain still bothers me today.
So inspiring, you guy's are awesome, how many sleds do you own?? Iam from Ontario Canada can i go on the list when they come up for sale. Iam just starting to buy old triples myself
The bulkhead above secondary shaft, instead of taking the whole chaincase off. i cut the bulkhead, which allow me to remove shaft out, if your not pinning the sled, however on the wedge indy ultra, polaris design a beefy bearing carrier you take the stock one out and install the heavier design.
@@jeffpine3036 that was a very good catch on your part. The main reason for the notch cut out. When your secondary is stuck on you get the shaft out of the sled then. Otherwise you can't. Great job my friend on noticing that. I keep meaning to talk about it 😁
