I just put the dropped case on my 2016 and now my sled lift won't lift the thing without loading up the brake guard and chaincase guard.

What are you guys with the lower driver using?

Add 2x4 as needed

That's what I mean. It's hitting with two layers deep of 2x4s.


Maybe I got the 2019 case that drops it TWO inches.

Same issue here. I just put a 2x4 across the lift under the track so it holds the back of the sled up. I'm installing an eyebolt in the ceiling through the rafters of my garage right above the lift so I can still suspend the rear end for skid/track work when needed.

Kind of a pain but not a bad idea. Thanks!

I stacked blocks of wood until it cleared.

I just lift the front end of the sled lift until it clears the chain case and brake covers and then let the front back down and line it up just in front of the track.

My biggest problem now with my lift is getting it between the skis since I added the wheel kit.

Wheel kit? The one that mounts on the inside of the ski and flips up out of the way?
Must post a review after a few hundred miles......
