Put the rebuilt shock ion after work and discovered that one of the track adjusting bolts was missing and the other was backed way out. Guess that explains why the track was so loose. Bought a bolt but had to by a thread die also since they didn't sell full thread bolts in a 12 X 1.50 pitch.

Hopefully she holds together for the weekend.

And I think my rear shock is missing some parts and that is why it is not lasting me very long before it blows out.

The crossover tube assembly here...store - TeamFAST Snowmobile Suspension

That didn't quite work. In the replacement parts...1993-2000 section...page 1 if anybody even cares...
Good excuse for an upgrade. Hopefully it holds up for you.

Things are good here if you forget boys who aren't listening and getting themselves in more trouble. Other than that, trying to study. I'm a relatively slow reader when it comes to books, so it's a slow process.

How are things in Suppertown?

Hey Cory ... not enough snow down here for that. The rain pretty much took care of anything that was decent. I think the sun the rest of this week will finish it off.

Really? No snow. We have a lot left on the ground. The trails are in nice shape yet. I think I am gonna get out for one last ride this weekend.

BTW, studying sucks!

My wife doesn't understand boys. She has two sisters. I have 7 brothers. I don't always understand my daughter. Most of the time, I'm told "it's a girl thing." At that point, I know I am not going to understand.

We have just enough to keep things cold and frozen. Not enough that anyone could go snowmobiling though. We had a decent amount after the last snowstorm, but the rain the same week took care of whatever we did get. Traveling up 169, there is more snow north of LeSueur. I'm just ready for it to be done.

Yes, studying does suck. Why do you think I'm on here?
