Slowly collecting parts

Recommended Posts

Haven’t checked in lately, been busy collecting parts and salvaging some spare parts for my sons Sprint....still need some stuff for my red  Doo, a medium tinted windshield, battery,  mirrors, carbides, and a couple of ball joints. I’m sure I’ll need more once I tear into it.  But i’m Bringing the STX out of back up duty and making it my main sled again...why you may ask? Why not? Last winter I rode them back to back and decided I liked the STX better than the Z even though the only difference in clutching and carburetor size.

Amazing how your yard looks a lot like mine. Projects everywhere! Tough part is completing them before you get to the point where you pick something up and say to yourself, "what the heck does this go to?"

Like your logic on going back to old faithful. I 'm getting to prefer older sleds myself, although I have access to later Renegades and an 800 summit 154.

Thank you, it hides it's scars well, plus I'm showing you the good side LOL. The other side was messed up pretty good back in 2011. Fixed up as best as I could.

Well sadly, the rotary shaft seals went on the STX, I suppose better now than in the middle of winter. Oil leaked out filled the belly pan and leaked all over the garage floor.....All cleaned up and back together. Just need to run it it up to temp and burp the coolant system. I also wire brushed, sanded, and painted the trailing arms as well, even found a set of NOS decals for the trailing arms.
