Curious....will stock 163" pro RMK rails work on the 155" suspension? Just swap all the parts and have shocks re-valved?

Sure does, thats the way my sled is set-up right now. I didnt revalve the shocks, just adjust them. I didnt do anything with my tunnle either, just zip tie your snow flap to the rear bumper and call it good. Never rubbed even doing big tail walks on spring snow. Eric

Easy peasy.
Little less rear spring tension needed for ski control is the only change.
And it goes better. :)

rail extensions work too but I dont like to go that route. Plus when your trying to fool your buddies for a few rides OEM rails work much better :)
I also new this was only a short term thing for me and would be putting the sled back to a 155 for this seasons back-up sled. Eric
