Went for a ride on Saturday, nothing special just a bit of a ride locally with my son/DIL and a couple friends. Was climbing a hill and noticed that I was only getting 7200RPM. Got to the top and heard something that didn't sound right so I hopped off and took a look in the skid and found this. WTF???
So a friend and I took it apart and reassembled it as it should be and off I went. We were about to head back to the trucks anyway so I took it easy all the while wondering what caused it. Got home and unloaded the sled off the deck and into the shop and noticed that it looked like it was sitting low. Yup, it did it again. Of course when it would do that it would jam the shock between the top and bottom of the track and it tore the track all to h3ll. Called Tom's Snowmobile this morning to see why it was doing this and was told that there is a small teflon roller type affair that goes on the skid to prevent this from happening. I went out and looked and, sure enough, there it was....still on my '14 summit that I took the E-Motion out of. NOT impressed with myself. I don't know if I can get this season out of this track or not.
The end resultant carnage.
