Hey Man, forgot to ask you what it cost to put back together? Do you have any more pics?

lucky, I bought a used trailing arm for $12 at hayday last fall, it was my spare part.
$29 for a used stock (cheap shock than Ryder FX shock), why buy a expensive shock when you will get accident happen again and blew $150 away. I also switch the shock on other side too, one Ryder FX shock is my spare part now.
I think maybe $50 or more on rods.

its been 5 years since I bought a first sled, I had a bent trailing arm, got it straight out and weld it.... so that was it.

in my group, there is one boy that was his first time to ride in the mountain (last year) and he got in accident with trees. lost control goin down hill.. exhaust, trailing arm, rods, shock, and hood were damaged.

this year, same boy, got in accident again! he hit the rear of snowmobile because it was hard to see through of snow windy, in front of him blew a belt and he hit him. got to be carefully with blowing snow condition on trail.

you prody cant see the picture of bracket mount with rivets that are broke off and lucky we found two bolts to support the rear suspension to tow all way to the trailer.
