I've asked under the new member section but maybe I need to post here. I've searched this site and can find where guys have installed sc-10's into their sleds but no details/measurements of how they did it. I posted a question to some one on the web and got the following answers. I'd appreciate it if someone has any comments or disagrees with this guys answers or knows how to install differently. Thanks
Question: I got a suspension (SC-10?) off a 98 skidoo mach Z 800 for free (needs a few parts...what do you expect for free). I want to install it into my 92 Vmax. I could use all the help, measurements, hints, tips, photos, etc that you might provide me. If you know anyone else that can help me that would be appreciated.
Answer: The sc-10 fit bolts on in the front and you may use two off the holes in the back
Nothing to drill
The sket from the suspension will be very close or in between the drive sprocket
It does not matter,,,,,
You will also need to adjust the track until it stop skipping ( cause by the more open angle off the suspension compare to the original one ,,, 7 inches instead off 10.
Enjoy the ride
Question: Thanks for the info. I take it that I just drop the suspension off the Vmax and bolt the SC-10 back into the existing bolt holes. Did the SC-10 suspension require any spacers to fit the tunnel sides on the Vmax?? Also, I take it that you have to keep the track pretty tight to keep from skipping on the drive sprocket. I guess I have some work to do.
Answer: You will have to get two shaft made to the lenght off the vmax one
If you have the sc10 one with you it will help
The tunnel off the vmax is wider then the bombardier one
Also the shaft are not the same thickness
If I remember correctly, the front shaft on the sc-10 is thinner then the rear one
So its very important to have them made to spec’s
When done,,, the sc-10 will slide from side ti side on the shaft,,,,
All youll have to do is secure it with a locking ring on both side
The front shaft is a bolt on into the front hole
And the back is simply hooking to either the rear hole off the tunnel and or in 2 of 3 holes that is in the rear brakect
I remember that I was using only 2 bolts on that bracket
You’ll see that is it very easy to figure it out
The shaft are the complicated portion off the swap cause the vmax shaft wont fit in the sc-10
I hope this will clarify a bit,,,,,
