So with another summer fast approaching I find myself dreaming of this summers build. My sled to date is very stock, but i plan on changing that over the summer months. Im going with a challenger extream 162/16 with 2.5" paddles, Timbersled rear skid, 4" drop brackets and a 2 wheel kit with 8" billits.
Chargers are still to much for my budget, but I think this will be a good start.
Anyone else plan on doing some updates this summer?

"shot by wife" ...LOL
YES...this will be the first thing to avoid...the wifes angry looks,gun shots or stabbings...LOL.
>>
My list starts like this:
Track= PowerClaw or Extreme 174...undecided....lighter faster track speed or longer slower but more foot print...opinions?
Custom boards with edge coolers
K-Mod skid Carbon fiber 9" wheels, Hyperfax
Diamond S or Polycarbonate hood ... undecided
Wild Child steering stem, RSI bars/grips/risers/strapp
MPI a-arms, spindles, Oil lite bushings
Excell header & donuts
Power Commander
Remove radiator
Remove ebrak
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Now how to explain the importance of these items to the spouse and live to ride when there done.......I might not get them all but if you show them a BIG list then they'll easily compromise for a few things...... Works like a charm!

That sounds like my idea of fun!
I have a flatbed trailer that can fit up to 4 sleds if we pack em well, and a truck to pull it with.
Lets do it.
