Trailblazer Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 So i did a little digging and remembered i lost a track too at some point and happen to have some pics hanging around. it was on a LSG trip a few years back, here we are swapping the position of the middle wheel on the rear axle to keep the track from sliding off, it was chipping away slowly and starting to derail. We were in Baie de Ha Ha when it started and figured we could get back to our trucks in St.Raymond. Here's a shot of me slicing pieces off, this would take effect every 5-10klms. Made it to Baie St.Paul and that was it, i had to hitch a ride back to St.Raymond Not much left Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fozzy Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Not sure if this would clasify as a break down but the sled did not ride to well after. Miss hap at around 85mph... The sled flipped end to end three times and I never fell off. No broken bones but I did look like Frosty afterwards. I feel very lucky.

nowa Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 This is my sled last february at Sports BC in New Richmond. Notice the rear suspension on the bench to the left, yeah its mine too! I broke a rail and lost a couple wheels. The only reason we made it to our destination that night (Perce) was because this shop is top knotch! They rolled a sled off a lift and went to work right away. A very reasonable $300 later and we were back on tq 5 around the Gaspe! Its all part of the saddlebagging adventure! I guess?!?!
