I had a blast with this sled last year and decided to do a little modding with it this summer and fall.
-136" Camoplast 1.75" Lug
-136" Tunnel/Rail Extension (Ulmer Racing Kit)
-Powermad 8" riser plus 1.25" pivot adapter = 9.25" riser
-Rox Powermadd Handguards and billet mounts
-Custom Anti-Bottomers
-Air Box Mod w/ SLP paper
-Gutted Exhaust
-Monster Energy Graphics (Done last winter)
What do you guys think???

I use Photobucket for my online photo hosting. Just create a free account and upload the pictures to an album. Once the photos are there, you can highlight the ones you want, click "generate HTML code" and copy the thumbnail for message board link and paste here. This makes for nice thumbnails that people can click to view the full-size image.
If you want to just add it as an attachment to this message, use the "Add an Attachment" button below the reply box. The instructions are easy to follow, just make sure the picture is less than 560kb in size.
Thirdly, you could PM me for an email address that you can send it to and I will post it up for you.

Looks sweet, did you need a different throttle cable for that riser?

THANKS MAN!!!
Thats the stock cable with a 9.25" riser.
It works fine...but wouldnt wanna go to much higher. Then you would probably have to get an extended cable.

And here is how it would be using Photobucket and thumbnails (click the images for the larger view):
It's much easier to view and click the images you want to see, it's faster to load the page for those with slow connections and overall better than just posting the huge images like above.

never had a hard time with any AC riders.
All my sleds before this one were AC's. I love black/green/white color combos...as you can see, lol.
I get a lot of guys with their mouths open though : P

I see you use your drill to lift the sled lift up and down. Did you make your own adapter piece to do that or did you buy one somewhere. I Would love to not have to hand crank my sled up everytime I put it on the lift.

I built the lift. Im pretty good with my hands and had seen a couple of buddies designs and went from there. Did some improvements along the way too ; )
Got the trailer jack and took of the hand crank and now I just put either a right hand drill or a cord drill with a key and lock her on and it works great! You just got to be careful you dont get the drill ripping around and then come to the point and max out the jack and brake it. It could be easily done. lol But yes the drill works wonders...and saves your arm for sure!!

Ya I love the drink, so I thought it would be cool to do my sled up like this. After Tucker Hibberts first fircat with Monster all over it I had to do something like that.
I did the graphics last fall, but didn't want to show you guys until I had everything I wanted to do, done. Now Im just excited for the season to begin!!
