On my older Pros and my 2020 AXYS I have used the Dura Pro ski bushings. Do you need to use Dura Pro on the 2021 or has Polaris fixed their ski bushings?

They can’t even produce the sleds promised. Why would you think they fixed the ski rubbers. ?????
I found that the Bpwr ski bushings work a bit better than the Durapro bushings. I have a buddy that has split 2 this season and I haven’t lost one yet and they seem to be in good shape still.

Thanks for the info. Do you have the part number by chance? Thanks

Thanks, I’ll check them out.

Still wondering if you need to replace like the old Pros or has Polaris fixed the problem.

Durapros are overrated ...get the saddle braces to keep the bolt holes from ovaling out and IQ rubbers are tough and cheap

Interesting, do you know what part numbers are or where to get the braces and rubbers? Thanks

Still wondering if it’s necessary on the newer machines like a 2021 Pro Rmk to replace the ski bushings or was the problem fixed? The old Pros would let the ski flip 90 degrees and then you flipped over the handlebars.

for new skis, saddle braces will prevent the bolt from ovaling out the plastic which helps keep the rubbers snug ...that plus fresh IQ rubbers will outlast multiple sets of Durapros - braces are one of the easiest, cheapest and best mods

Thanks for the advice. Found an old listing on Ebay for saddle braces but it expired years ago. Will keep looking.
