Hmm, the engine in my truck blew and it's gonna cost me an arm and a leg to fix. I should phone Ford and tell them I hate their F150 and see if I can get an engine cheaper that way.

I have a feeling it's not gonna work out though.



Well I hope you don't mind buying a used motor for cheap even if you don't know if it will fit in the truck? Want me to measure my motor to see if one off my GMC with fit in the ford?

So today, I called Polaris directly to see what they would charge for the lower a-arm for my sled. So I figure, can't hurt to find somewhere cheaper than $128.98 ( through carls cycle ). Well, they priced me something like $151. I said, well, I am very upset with your product. I got the response of "Please contact your local dealership, maybe they can do something about it, thank you". And hung up. Poor service. I doubt the Polaris company representatives are normally like this, but this guy was just an a-hole. So, I looked up "Polaris snowmobile" with the hopes of finding a forum. I didn't find a forum, but I did find a place I've never heard of; Babbitts Sports Center. BEST NEW PARTS PLACE EVER! Lowest prices I've seen yet. $102 for a brand new lower a-arm plus shipping. Although I'm going to keep looking, that was outstanding that I saw that.

Does anyone know of any other place besides als snowmobile that sells used snowmobile parts?

With BRP's thinking you should buy it because its cheap. Dont matter if it will fit or not.

Thats a good idea you should trade your sled for a truck. Than you could never have a reason to sign in here again.

I DONT HAVE THE A-ARM AND DONT WANT TO SPEND THE $81 TO HAVE IT SHIPPED TO MY DOOR. I have my 2005 Fusion, but I want to see if the 06' Fusion one will work, that's why I asked for someone with a 2006 fusion to measure theres.


I could since there is one next door but I don't like you at all so I will stay in the house where it is warm.

If it was anyone else I would do it in a heart beat. Sorry man I dislike liers.

Okay ladies and Gents, Time for another MX rant!

1.) i have read like 6 ****ing times in this thread from BRP-a-Douche about how this one place is cheaper then POO. guess what? IT'S 50 ****ING BUCKS! but it's a USED part compared to a NEW one. wow... for 50 bucks i would buy the new one....

2.) you bought the fusion USED. why the **** would Poo care bout you? you didn't buy the sled from them.

3.) as a fellow Customer Service rep. i deal with well over 500 PEOPLE PER DAY. and if some ****ing 15 y/o is telling me that they hate my product, i would say sorry you feel that way. and i would hang up too. cause guess what? I HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO, then listen to you bitch. i DIDN'T put the damn sled together. and neither did HE.

4.) someone of such high internet expertise as yourself should be able to FIND a god damn lower A arm. you don't need to bitch about it.

5.) if you don't like the Poo, SELL THE FUSION. (if you havn't already noticed... WE DON'T LIKE YOU, unfortunatly tho, we can't sell you or trade you for a different douchebag.)

6.) Daddy will be paying for it anyways.. so what the **** does it matter to you?

i could go on all day, but i've wasted enough of my valuable time.

How about use that handicapped brain of yours and go to polaris' web site and see if the part #'s on the 05' match the 06'. If I had an 06' in my garage I wouldn't get off my ass for you to save my life by the way.

If the 05 and 06 had a different thickness even, the part number would be different. If they have the same measurements, it will work just fine.
