Ahhhh 1mile away from me. I know the road but best not to post. I had my 07 skid shocks done by him through my dealership (rry) but they said he doesn't allow stop ins. Had to be sent through dealership. Anyway I can get set up with him through you guys?? I've sent so many buddies elsewhere for service and honestly I like keeping business local.

You can find him on Kijiji under the heading Shock rebuilding or PM me and I can send you his number.

Thank you. Found him. Heck, that's really good for shock service no!!??!!?? Small freaggen world. My buddy Paul, shop where I welded my arm, grew up beside him. They were neighbours.

As for sled. Worked on my old 07's 4th broken pivot arm. Did some major re-enforcing today. Also did my spare I bought and broke last season.
I sure like welding
Not bad for a 110 plug in mig. IMO.

That came out good. Looks like a strong repair.

Thanks!! When my buddy told me it was a 110v I was worried. But she cut in good. High with a feed of 6 1/2. No burn throughs!! It's up 1lb with that channel. Plus or minus a little bit.

I finally got a chance to install my Garmin Zumo up this weekend. My wife got it for my bike for X-Mas and I figured I might as well use it on the sled to. I downloaded a Vt trail map from Trailmasters. It looks good, but I didn't get a chance to ride this weekend because I helped my brother and my father with their trucks instead. Oh well there's always next weekend. I also installed the soft start spring from Barn of Parts. I rode it a couple of miles and it felt pretty good. Hopefully when I get out for a real ride I'll still like it, but I think I will. Here's a pic of the GPS.
