Todd your stuff is great. Watch them all. Love it. You do know you have a disease with no cure. I only have a mild case. You got it bad. Best part. We enjoy it !!!
For your 1st mono block disassembly you made it look easy. Im also impressed with tge shape of the rotating assembly for 6500mi. Goes to show proper maintenance and good oil go a long ways.
I had a brand new MXZ 583 in 97. There wasn’t a Polaris that could touch me. But I only work on Polaris triples now. They are good engines as long as you know how to make them sing.
My buddy had a new 96, I think, XLT. Back in the day they had wrist pin issues and his was fixed under warranty. I had the sled for a while and he has it back with about 6k on the clock. Still a good runner. Cheers!
Those monoblocks will run a long time with good oil and a bit of maintenance. I had a 93 special that i sold to a buddy. Last i heard it had over 23k miles and never been apart! Dad had a 97 limited, and it had 16k miles on it before he traded it in. Good luck on the build!
Those engines were good as long as you didn't over rev them. The crankshaft would come out of time from harmonic vibration there just pressed together, I drilled and pinned the crank on one and then welded the pins in tuned the clutching to max out around 10k had tripple pipes on it thing was a beast, would beat new 850s off the line to 50mph I just sold them 2 years ago
brings back memories of hating, 1st loving the mono block. then hating it. seems like I rebuilt more XLT's then any other Fuji motor. this was it before the storm 800 triple. well you had the 650s which were great. my dream triple would be a early 600 Fuji 1985 or 1986.
Can't wait to see this thing come together! Excited to hear those AAEN pipes come to life too since I never got around to running my XLT with them on since I didn't wanna cut up my nice hood haha.
Hi there Todd how much for a trash can I have a 97 storm we have to be careful up here in Ontario Canada what's your thoughts on how loud it is? Great content by the way Mike Cormack 😊
Hi, what can cause a camshaft to move to one side, I got an XLT 600 from a friend, he told me that the engine lost power and after a few meters the engine locked up.
I drilled out the 6 bolt pattern in a piece of 1/4 " thick piece of metal put the 6 bolts in and just evenly tighten up like a head bolt at it pops right off never use only 3 easy way for anyone who doesn't have a welder to make a puller simple and effective

Glad to see your finally doing a monoblock. I've been riding monos for years.

I hope a cure is never found 🤣🤣🤣

Absolutely
Wetting the ol back neck down tearing the motor down awsome video bud 🍻 cheers
🤣🤣 love that saying
Those monoblocks sound wicked with just a can...with triples and stingers i think they are in the league of best sounding triples
Should be epic when we fire it up

A properly tuned ultra should have given you a good run 😁
Keep the updates coming. We’re excited to follow along.
I sure will

If done right they go and go
Nice to see you guys in the shop again working on sleds
It definitely feels good
Nice-looking weld you did on that motor mount ...

Love the dimple die That’s a great look 😊

Sending the cylinder off tomorrow. I'll be getting the chassis painted soon and start reassembly

Slow but will happen
So nice to see you boys working on sleds again! 😁
It's been awhile

Looks like an ultra 680 motor . I love the old triples
XLT 600

I had great luck with the two mono blocks I owned in the 90s
Sure enjoy your videos love Polaris!
Glad you like them!

Heck yeah
Gotta love the XLTs!
Go big nutter
Love your videos!!!!
Thanks

I was thinking how clean the innards look during the tear down. Sometimes you can’t judge a sled by the odometer
I agree
Gunna be sweet build thanks for the shoutout
You bet
Everyone bashes the xlt but I loved my 96 xlt special with the x-tra 22
I meant x-tra 12
It was the number one selling sled for a good reason
@toddclyne3493 many say they were slow, but mine ran really well, it did have pipes and clutch work
HES BACK!
Finally 😂

No camshaft in a two stroke that I know of
Haha you have the same can coosie we got lol, some guy at haydays gave us some
That's where this one came from 😂🍻🍻
@@toddclyne3493 🤣
Where does one get grease fitting for the sleeve where ski shaft goes
Amazon or auto store. It's a press fit fitting
@@toddclyne3493 thanks
This should be a special xlt when done 😂
What's on the lift in the next bay?
29 Ford roadster
What years did they make that mono block?
92 to 2000.
🎉
First mono block in the shop? Are you sure there's enough to your shop to contain all those ponys?😂😂
🤔🤣🤣🤣
what is a mono block boys
😁
It wants to come so bad....
thats what she said!
Always 😂😂😂
I had an 800 storm. Had every mod known to man. It was fun and fast until something broke. And something always broke.
I think that just comes with snowmobiles in general 😆
I drilled out the 6 bolt pattern in a piece of 1/4 " thick piece of metal put the 6 bolts in and just evenly tighten up like a head bolt at it pops right off never use only 3 easy way for anyone who doesn't have a welder to make a puller simple and effective
Awesome
