SNOWMOBILES!!!!!!!!!:D
My 1974 John Deere JDX-6, 1971 Auto Ski 440 Avenger, and 1972 Olympique: http://www.fordrangerforum.com/membe...2olympique.jpg Still runs like a DEERE!:) http://www.fordrangerforum.com/membe...-jdx6-side.jpg http://www.fordrangerforum.com/membe...jdx6-front.jpg My dad left his old JDX4 out by the barn and it was in pretty bad shape, but I have it running(barely) right now. Just not enough time to completely fix it up. http://www.fordrangerforum.com/membe...x4-special.jpg |
Re: SNOWMOBILE thread!!!!
Nice collection of vintage sleds there ^^ My buddy growing up had a JD 300, had boggy wheels only, no sliders so we would ride that thing year round. That was a fun sled.

Thanks man.
Yeah, fast as shit. And it's not just the speed, it's how fast they accelerate. When I was passing cars on the highway, I had to stop for a cross road. One car passed me (he was going 60mph) and I caught him and passed him within probably 6 seconds at most. Really rips the arms outta the sockets if you aren't careful lol. |

I've got a 1999 440 sno pro with a 1999 zr 700 motor in it, clutched and geared, rebuild 300 miles ago, I think 5 inch risers. It's a really fun sled. Supposed to be 450lbs but I think 465ish with the 700 in it. I also got a 1976 cheetah 5000, don't have any pictures of it though.

wanted something more reliable i could count on to get me home after a 200 mile ride, and i wanted something that wouldnt get stuck in 2 foot of snow. so i got my beast, and been loving every second of it. even though it still only has 250 miles on it. still brand new. |
What the hell are those things!?!? Whats that white stuff??? Lol
