2000 700 powder special

You might want to look at the front shock on the skid. Make you sure you check for a cross shaft!:

I just sold one of my spare sleds last spring which was a 99'700. I bought it in a basket and rebuilt it. It never gave any problems and had good torque when compaired to the 600. They were hard on clutches due to their viberation at an idle. I set my idle up around 1700 and it smoothed the engine out and also made it more responsive coming off an idle. Keep the drive axel and driven axel greased. The motor mount by the secondary clutch was prone to breaking, so keep an eye on that. I had a fabcraft tunnel and changed the skid mounts a little and it really made a difference getting up on the snow.

Put a newer recoil on it. The originals are week and have some plastic parts that will fail. Mine came apart and the steel parts got sucked in behind the flywheel and when we stopped the engine the parts behind the flywheel lodged in the stator and locked up the engine. Now this all happened 60 miles down the trail on the way to Gould >>>>.
