I keep reading the cool changes coming to the Proclimb for 2018. I have a 2015 Proclimb 153 and like many on here, I updated the front end to the 2016 36" front end. Then when the Mountain Cat came out, I ordered the longer inner chain case along with a belt drive system and a 3" Powerclaw to keep up with the latest changes.
Now, I see the 2018 changes and I wondering how I (we) can incorporate the 2018 changes into our existing sleds. The changes I am most interested in are:
1. The foot position is moved 2" further forward. I haven't looked yet but, I would bet that since the chassis is nearly the same that we should be able to accomplish this fairly easily. Has anyone looked at doing it yet?
2. The plastics will be narrower and have "easy access" for 2018. Is there a fit kit for those of us with older Proclimbs to be able to mount the new plastics?
3. The narrower running boards would probably have to be a the plastics upgrade. I have been reading that we can narrow up the current plastics with just a running board change and some 'trimming". However, i am really interested in the improved access the new side panel supposedly provide.
What other changes can we incorporate into our older sleds to keep them up with the times?
