Hello all,

You have seen my projects materialize over the past few years and today I have made the committment to step it up a level. I am confident that I possess the skills to do complete gearbox rebuilds, but I need a case or two to practice on first.

I have a gearbox from a 2003 Skandic SUV 600 that has great top shafts/gears, but the middle/lower gears as well as the case itself are toast:

I am looking for a couple of busted gearboxes that I can buy from you to see if I can piece one together. I am not going to learn if I do not try and I really don't want to practice on a new gearbox!

If you have one you can part with, I will gladly buy it from you. I am willing to ship parts from as far away as Alaska.

You are the widetrack man! Think you can ship newly rebuilt cases into Boarder Beacon???

LOL You never know!

Looks like I'll be awhile before I perfect this art, the main reason being that I can't find any subjects to experiment on!

Let me see what happened to one that fell er ton off the cart last winter. Stand by. I noticed that you did not respond to Andrew's comment about Tent City. Interesting!

Kirk, from what I'm hearing camping could be REAL cold this year. Any room on the back of the XU for a big tent?? Us Sport sled guys cant have those luxeries

Already struggling with weight. But I hear cuddling helps keep ya warm.

Ah yes, fell er ton, let me know if he has anything. I'm more than willing to take a couple off his hands.




LOL, that one will be hard to nail down for a while yet, but it is a real possibility. One thing is for sure, if an overnighter is required, it will gaurantee that the right equipment is on board.
