In my opinion, what grease is used in this application is far less important than the frequency that it is applied. We have tried a few different products and they all seem to just disappear. All I can guess is the centrifugal forces allows the grease to get past the seal. So my recommendation is to go to your local industrial supplier and buy whatever grease they have in stock that is intended for roller bearings. Simple and effective.

@@AndrewMilleyPerformance Thanks for the reply

Nope

We haven’t had any issues with the 6” bar effecting the battery. I run the same setup on both my 850 Xterrain’s with no issues

@@AndrewMilleyPerformance thanks for that. Is there anyway you can post a picture of your light bar setup on the xterrain ? The plastic housing is much smaller on them and wouldn’t mind a reference 🙏🏼

We don’t have a rear arm solution yet. I strongly discourage 4 strokes. They are heavy and will fatigue you faster… and be harder to manage in some areas

@@AndrewMilleyPerformance Thank you for the advice.

The entire arm. All of it. Multiple failures

@@AndrewMilleyPerformance wow. I wonder what could cause that. Not like you guys are trying to break them

You can contact me at amilleyperformance@gmail.com

The procedure is mostly the same, some parts are a little different

We are at a point that no matter what new sled we chose, we would have to learn new equipment. We picked Lynx. The ride is far superior to anything else I’ve ridden that’s suitable for Cain’s Quest. We only had problems with ONE part. That’s it. The rest of the sled was 👌 So in my opinion, it would be unwise to ride something else. We have almost overcome the learning curve. We just have to reengineer ONE part.

@@AndrewMilleyPerformance Are you and Rob returning in 2026?

Thanks!

It’s a Molykote product we use in electric motors where I work

I really don’t know. A few years ago you could do a total rebuild yourself for under $2000, but I don’t know how much prices have changed

Rox shocks are a quality product. I have a lot of stuff around because I’ve been racing for years so sometimes I choose to just run parts I already have. With that said, if I had to buy shocks for a new SWT tomorrow, I’d spend my money on Rok shocks for the front 3 and look for a 2” rear similar to what I have…. BUT a 1.5” Rok rear is an excellent choice for 95% of people. It can be valved to offer the same ride as my 2”, but the 2” has better fade resistance on a long day.

20” vs 24”. Some guys don’t find it bad at all…. Some guys don’t last 2 hrs. It’s hard to say.

@@AndrewMilleyPerformance That's my concern, well, might pull the trigger and worst case be stuck with it for one season and then I'll know for sure going forward.

You can get the tool from Grip n Rip in the US or Herbs Industrial and Recreation here in Canada

I can only comment with knowledge of our local snow conditions and terrain. From my experience a 20” turbo is a really nice touring sled with some off trail capability. It likes to dip and dive and can be very frustrating in the woods. A 20” 900ace is a bit better, considerably cheaper and unbelievably reliable with the exception of fuel filters. A 2 stroke 20” is a really nice all around snowmobile, noticeably better off trail than the 4 strokes. “It’s only 30lbs” people say, but I think it drives like 50+ difference. The 2 stroke is almost zero maintenance until it’s engine rebuild time. If you’re stepping up to a 24” they really are all great sleds. I’d personally still get a 600r, but there is no wrong choice, just little compromises

It is absolutely worth while. We mostly ride good snow as well, but the occasional icy river crossing or wind blown lake will show the difference, especially towing a sleigh

Thanks

When it’s clear, white is nice. However there is blowing snow or snow dust more often than clear conditions so I just leave the amber filter on it.

It’s just a 1” in line heater you can get at an auto parts store or Amazon. It’s very difficult to get in the 3/4” hose, but it’s very effective

@@AndrewMilleyPerformance thank

It’s been a couple years now but I think I tapped it to take a common npt pipe thread

We used Map Tuner x. However on 2023 and 2024 models there isn’t much to gain. I have a clutch kit I sell for the 900 utility sleds.

For the actual mounting it’s just two Ram mounts on 1/4-20” studs, two 2” Ram arms and two of the diamond shaped Ram mounts. Then four M5 bolts like you see used in the body on the snowmobile with washers and nuts.

@@AndrewMilleyPerformance thanks buddy! Enjoyed following you in the race!

I still have this one and I also have a new Brutal. I have ran taller gearing in 850s with tall lugs, but my experience is they only pull more speed for a short distance. They get rpm fade and run slower than the lower gearing so there is little win. Hopefully you have better success.

This works on all the sleds with the 2 speed gearbox, even the 600r and 850 2 strokes. I use the tool that holds the top gear in place on the sleds with the strait chain case

Can’t go wrong with an Expedition SWT with the 600r, 900 ace or Turbo r…. But my money is on the 600r. I don’t have one this season and I’m kinda regretting it.

any reason to go swt instead of the normal 20 inch?@@AndrewMilleyPerformance

The amber is better if it’s snowing or there is snow dust…. Which is most of the time.

The 4 stroke will outlast the 2 stroke. I can’t argue that… but I trust the 2 stroke for long trips and will continue to do so

The 600r is 2 stroke and that 900 is a 4 stroke. Most people will tell you that 2 strokes aren’t reliable, but I’d take a new one across the country. I just prefer how they operate

The flat tip iGrips were brought to me with the snowmobile. I was just responsible for instillation. I personally run the pointy tip iGrips.

These iGrip studs hold up excellent…. But to be honest even the cheap alternatives we have run from Kimpex outlast the track with our use.

We usually don’t go further than 700km between places you can buy fuel. This particular trip we had 3 nights in remote camps, 4 days of travelling. We do carry a small tent and stove for emergency purposes.

On these sleds with the gearbox there is a short shaft that stays in the gearbox. A male spline sticks out of the gearbox and the jackshaft has a female spline.

Direct from the start solenoid, always hot. I realize that has some downsides, but I like my gps to be on steady power when I’m starting and stopping a bunch. It’s also nice to always have the light bars work if needed

Sorry I don’t. I bought them on eBay after a lot of searching
