Have you looked at Smittys drop brackets with stiffner plate?

Racers Edge, XP Rear Skid Mount Support Brackets sound like what your after. I noticed them at http://www.sourceinnovations.ca/ and was considering a set. As a fellow fatf**k I know you can't have too much bracing on these things.

In the 2010 HPE catalog I found aN XP lower brace that does EXACTLY what I was doing to the racers last year..!!!
It is on page 22 of the accessories catalog.

I saw that. I was wondering if that was the same concept.
I wonder if one of those could be used to help limit movement with a bigger motor??

2009 XP's leak coolant from most of the large clamps. Mine leaves a small green spot on the snow every night. You will need to remove Skidoo clamps and install the old style hose clamp. I only have one clamp thats seeping. Its the one under the fuel tank.
2008 XP, thought I would throw this out. The oil tanks leaks from the cap. Makes quite a mess. I would need to check but replacing the cap with a new one MAY be the fix. Its been changed on the 09.

good info guys - another small issue is the small hex head bumper bolt can chew up the outsides of the track lugs on some machines. Must be due to the minimal amount of space between the track and tunnel? Other members have had this problem too - I'm trying a different type of bolt this year - hope it helps
Same things happened to my '09. They put a new tank on it under warranty.

Thanks 100 times over for this one Winter Brew as I would have never thought to look at it and it is sheared off on my sled.

Another thing I thought of that I am not sure is a problem on the xp as it was on the rev but are the carb boots ok from delaminating?
rave valves
what is the story on rave valve breakage?

So far we havent seen too much in the way of carb boot delam. Atleast not in our group. Others??
I believe Skidoo pretty much dealt with the Rave issue on the 08 sled. Correct me if im wrong but I believe the 08 valves were cut from a different material than the 07 valves and the softer 07 ones were failing in some cases?? I believe turboal has more info on this.

2008 summit Clutching
I have been reading alot about the stock clutching on the 2008 800 summits, and apparently its garbage. I just bought a 2008 154 800, and I am thinking about getting a dynamo joe mountain clutch kit, I hear they are the cats a$$. I was wondering how to install it as I have never pulled a clutch apart. Even if I don't get one, what do I need to do to pull the clutching apart to give it a proper cleaning?

The secondary is kind of a bear cat, especially the first time. Have to pretty much pull the jackshaft out because the inner half is attached to the jackshaft. Do a search on here for changing the helix on an xp and you should get plenty of topics. It requires some special tools or you need to make some tools. Primary is pretty easy. Just need the puller and forks to hold the buttons in and some ready rod. Search should get what you need to know.
D-Joe has alot of good info on his website for working on clutches.
