This sled doesn't exist..........unless we see pictures.

I take pics and video of everything - get your pics up!

Ryanlilly · Oct 14, 2011

Pictures dammit!

just saw both the chassis and they are looking really sweet... they have some great ideas going into this years chassis. stoked to ride the lightest turbo'd sleds out there this year! i think they will be for sure... really going to be pushing some power to the snow. and be hella responsive. good job fellas...

Josh called me about two weeks ago to come to his shop and put a new windshield in his pickup. When I got there, I relized he had brought me to the secret build site of these two chassis's. I couldn't believe what I saw. Unreal. That's all I can say. What these two boys are doing is amazing!!!!!

How's the chaincase, (Belt drive) coming? Is it going to happen?

Wheel House Motorsports · Oct 17, 2011

you didnt know you had gotten top secret clearance to come out did you??

as for the drive system...were working on it.. im still going to be running my chaincase for now. but may work on the belt upgrade mid season depending on how development goes.

you will be one of the first to hear.

well, had some welder issues, so shut us down for a week. back on it again. and this dang college program really takes a bit out of my spare time

got tabs all cut and prepped for a-arm mounts, and a prototype set. now just to build copies of them. that was the biggest step. have one side of one with a-arms and shocks tacked on.

i got ALL of my header materials in and am ready to work on that. hopefully tommorow get the whole chassis finish welded up. and maybe get some header work done! also coolers are bend up and ready to install for me.

Ryanlilly · Oct 31, 2011

I don't believe it, cause there is no proof!

Wheel House Motorsports · Oct 31, 2011

neither do I!!! every time i look at it i think it cant be real!!

Wheel House Motorsports · Nov 3, 2011

so i finally broke down and will get you a small little taste of whats going on. the first 2 a-arms.. and got a jig to make more of them. works really good and holds em super snug allowing for easy replication.

we weighed these 2 and did the math for a whole set with the rod ends. ~8# for a full set! this is gonna be a good year.

So do you plan on wrecking? Those look great. What stance are you going to be running?

sledhead699 · Nov 3, 2011

looks sweet man cant wait to see this monster on the snow!!!

Wheel House Motorsports · Nov 3, 2011

no, so we can make more then 2 of them. these one were built in place to clear everything and get spindle angle where we want them.. just need to replicate them. but i am sure that an extra set or two many end up being created over time. it took maybe an hour to build upper and lower jigs and guarantees all our arms are identical.

as for ski stance, due to the threaded ends we can adjust the width of the arms about 1.5" total, plus the normal adjustment with ski spacers. the arms are adjustable from ~37-38.5 center to center...

swrev · Nov 3, 2011

Like the idea for adjusting stance. Doing the same setup on Josh's sled?

Wheel House Motorsports · Nov 3, 2011

identical. the only thing thats different chassis wise is the cross bracing design in the back of our tunnels, otherwise they are mirrors of one another.

Wheel House Motorsports · Nov 7, 2011

and... a spy photo of parts now that htings are coming together. I had a few pictures of my header, but there are some issues and i cant upload them.

skyler.hager · Nov 7, 2011

That yamaha sign on the back just adds weight! Haha jk
