what year is your mach Z? I had a 98 triple and had Ski-doo Flex skis. They were great but I heard the pilot skis were better.

^ yes, just get the standard Ski-Doo "Flex-Ski" They work great and are very inexpenssive. Shop around at a few dealerships!

Will he have get the new mounts for those!? I'm thinking that had a steel bridge on it stock? So if you don't allready have those, you will need Flex-Ski mounts also!
Might be worth giving these guys a call...

Try
www.spankysparts.com
and look at the Kimpex plastic ski's.
You can get the Black ski's and stainless bracket's for right around $200.00 for the set.
The colored set's with bracket's run about $220.00, And they ship them for free!.
I put them on My Prowler last year, and like them better than the C&A's I have on the ElTigre.
I'm also planning on putting them on My 98 EXT Triple this summer.
If anybody tries to tell you they are junk just because they are Kimpex, ask them if they have ever Personally used them, or are they just following the general Anti Kimpex line?
Just because they don't cost $300 a ski does'nt mean their no good.
I've dealt with Spanky's for several thing's, and alway's recieved Fantastic Service from them.
Just My opinion
Rick

1990 A.C. Prowler 440 SNO PROwler
1987 A.C. ElTigre 440

Make sure you let him know if that includes the mounts and loops! I assume it does. If that also includes skegs that are in decent condition, I would say that's a pretty good deal.

They are complete. Mounts, Carbides, loops....ETC the only thing these skis need as about $2.00 worth of bolts to hold the ski loops on. When i took out the bolts that were in it to change the loops out they were rusty so i threw them out. I just bought bolts for the skis on my 09 and i spent $1.88
