Does this require you to loosen the track to install?
I can't remember if the 2 bolts that hold the over structure to the tunnel were connected together on the back side or not.

155 for the pair with all the hardware, shipped in the US. Canadians will have add a touch for shipping. Hardware will be grade zinc plated 10.9 for in the tunnel and zinc plated grade 8 hardware for the billet machined clamp. Won't do stainless hardware due to it's aluminum threading problems that it will create if not anti-siezed before threading. You will have to at least loosen the track tension and wrestle this out -
Replace the lower bolt with this -
And reinstall.
They will be on the store Monday morning and shipping all week. If we run out, we will fast track getting more parts here yesterday.

That's the piece! Wrestle is the correct word to get that out! Gotta loosen that track all the way and get someone to push the track as far up possible, might be really hard to do with a longer Luged track. Or push the track down in the skid as far as possible and reach in above the track from the opposite side.
So once that's out, you cut the top bolt off and reinstall it?
Pound the bolt out of the hole and replace. Done. Loosening the track and pulling it down is probably going to be the easiest. I have to drag a complete sled here this week and get a quick install done on it. Every sled we keep here at the shop seems to end up in pieces and not get put back together again until 10 minutes before we get to ride.

Looks great on mobile!
Just to be clear your saying you reuse one of the bolts that are connected together by pounding it out of the strap?
What about backing that bolt
Up when re tightening it?
Leave the strap, just remove the lower bolt and put our supplied bolt through the hole when reinstalling the strap.

I believe he is saying; (Correct me if i'm wrong) you reuse the stock upper stud and the connecting strap, you insert the provided new bolt in the lower hole (after removing the lower stock stud) and the strap becomes it's washer.
As easy as it is to drop the rear suspension (four bolts), I would think doing so would save the installer a lot of time and choice words. I think, I would leave the sled flat on the floor, pull the four rear suspension bolts and lift the rear bumper with a strap towards the ceiling, letting the suspension stay in the track and pull the tunnel up and away from it.
As the hardware you need to access is directly above the front arm, anything less will be a chore unless you are a circus contortionist and even then it may prove futile.
With a good mechanical background a decent familiarity with your sled. One should be able to complete the install in about an hour or two (if including some BS / adult beverage time).
My $0.02 FWIW
