I feel like that's the most important part! Every job isn't easy and there's usually always a catch/trick you encounter the first few times. Like I noted in the little corner title pop up thinger, you can remove the DESS post nut and remove the panel entirely to make life easier, it has some side retainers too but they let go relatively easy. There's a special $20 socket for the tri-spoke DESS retainer nut most won't know about or buy (I'm in the second boat) and I don't like the idea of using channel locks/marking the nut up on a brand new machine...I probably should just buy the socket though as these E-linq's are getting more popular.
@@MunsonMotorsports I owned all polaris and that’s all I’ll work on, skidoo is a different animal lol definitely not as refined. You’ll for sure need a variety of tools for any sled. It’s cool to see any sled build helps speed up the down time before the season.
I don't run traditional studs in my personal sleds, I run the 1.5" Camso Storm track loaded up with SS28R iGrip screw in studs for the lugs. For traditional studs I work with all the brands depending on what the rider is looking for!
Thanks for all the great content on the turbo 850. Would you be comfortable running 144 pattern woodys 1450 2 ply stud in this setup for trail riding? This is what I had my dealership install on mine and now I am second guessing.
You should be just fine with the Woodys 1.45", those are barely taller than the HNT134 we ended using, which will still leave you 3/8 to almost 1/2" of clearance once the track hits the protector.
@@sleddheadxp800r We actually used the 2562-00 single ply template and the wider (1.2") backers, even though it's 2ply, longevity wise if it dead hooks a lot dispersing the load will help with track life long term.
@@sleddheadxp800r No worries! Those will work just fine for ya as they're intended! I don't have any hard proof this will help long term, nor do I know how long my customer will keep this sled, but there isn't a negative I can see to using the wider single ply stuff like we did.
I need to stud my 2023 MXZ Blizzard and was wondering, what's your experience with studs pulling out of those screw in backers vs using backers with tall nuts?
Knock on wood, I haven't seen it happen yet and I've installed a lot of these Studboy Pro series backers. I've only had one customer break 2 of the backers, and they chipped pieces of the base off but retained the stud and didn't damage the track. They're impressive pieces for sure.
I noted that you can do it that way in the video, it's a little title thing that pops up in the bottom left when I get to that point. Most don't know about or want to spend another $20 on the tri-spoke socket tool so I figured I would show the way I bet the majority of people are going to try and go about it
I like how you show the difficulty’s and don’t make it look like there is nothing to it lol
That’s what I was thinking too lol.

What’s your all around favorite stud?

Thanks! I appreciate the info!
@@MunsonMotorsportsthanks for the information and video comparison. Made me feel comfortable running my 1.45 gold diggers as well.
Did you have to use a stud boy template to run their doubles?
2563 template?

Hey just take the washer off the DESS post and the entire console pops off
