It’s been brought to my attention that you may not be able to use the carriage bolts on 163 tunnels. I have done this mod without the carriage bolts, just using the two rivets and bumper bolts to tie it back together. I didn’t have any issues.. but it’s up to you! Thanks again for watching!

Thanks Ross. I never thought of that method. I will probably end up doing the larger cut with the kit because I turn mine to a 146.

i drilled out the rivets on my snow flap and have ran without it all year, easiest way to recreate the cut tunnel, and as long as you have a rivet gun and rivets it gos back on in a couple minutes no problem

I like it! Still gotta get that bumper out of the way though! I would remove mine but it helps keep the sled cool especially when I’m hauling a ton of gear

Probably get more out of just taking off the snowflap, once off the trail, and put back on, on the way out.

@clintkysar1446 3 жыл бұрын

If you want more you could notch the flap bracket and flap around the cooler only downside it would not have as much protection against being bent on the upside you would keep all the cooling

Thanks for the video. In your opinion Do you think cutting the sides weakens the tunnel? I'm going to plate mine anyway just curious what you think.

@Ben-rz5wl 3 жыл бұрын

While you are at it, why not make your snowflap removable by using bolts with handle knobs and nylon locking nuts and washers? Id post a picture if I could.

I don’t mind the snow flap to much! Here in the cascades we get lots of concrete snow and I struggle with cooling! Love the idea tho! Thanks for watching!

Why even put the flap back on?

@Rossxr 3 жыл бұрын

I struggle with cooling here in the cascades sometimes things get pretty firm so I like it to help keep the sled cool

@delmarsmith622 3 жыл бұрын

When you say you feel the tail end dragging. I would think leaving the flap defeats the purpose. Or does moving the bumper allow the flap to flex out of the way even more?

@Rossxr 3 жыл бұрын

because the flap moves and flexes you don't feel it as much. no flap is the best but I need it for cooling when I haul all my camera gear. and when snow is firm.

@@Rossxr I have a few SLP mods to my RMK PRO, I have yet to cut the tunnel this method makes the process a lot eaiser seeing as I do not have the welding set up for aluminum. Do you still ride in the BV area? I appreciate your videos and explanations of the mods you make to your sleds and what they do to improve ride ability.
