Anyone change their 155” to a 146”

[Montgom345]

Looking to change my 2019 RMK 850 155” into a 146” so it’s more capable of riding both trails/ditches and the mountain.Two sleds in one.
Has anyone done this? Curious to see how much warmer the temps would be and if the cooling system can keep up. I would have to shorten the tunnel obviously but let me
Know your guys thoughts?
Would be using ICEAGE 146” bomber rails and possibly the 1.6” storm track or 2”. Thanks in advance for any info.

I have the 146 SKS with the 2.25. If you go this route go for the 2.6 IMO.

Don’t waste your time just buy a sks or a switchback

Several guys have done it.
No problems with cooling.


Gets you a sled 60# lighter than an sks or sba.

146 RMK

Well, after a weekend of test riding, jumping and about 1000 wheelies I have to say. The Axys RMK shortened to a 146 is a LOT of fun. This build was only to run for a few late season rides and see how I liked it. Definately putting the parts back on the shelf once the snow is gone and will be...

We have a 146 SKS and a 155 SKS, I was just talking to my buddies about this. I think the 146 RMK would be a blast riding in the areas we usually do. The SKS 146 is based on the trail chassis and the steering post is the only down fall, if it had the PRO style steering I would hop on that everytime. An 850 RMK 146 would be the first sled I would even consider snowchecking. We don't rode the extremely deep stuff that often and I mainly just like to mess around, wheelies, carve in meadows and light tree riding. I would be curious to see some pictures of the ass end of your conversion.

I'm going opposite instead with my 155 sks, putting 163 under it

I think I'd probably go back to Polaris is they made a Pro RMK 146. My 155 sks was way more capable than we need around here. I think the fun factor would be through the roof on a 146 pro! Definitely something I'm going to look into doing in the coming years. Best of luck with it Montgom!
