those 580s seem to run forever. Just don't put triple pipes on it..

 

congrats!!yep love my 93 580!!!

 

^^ wow your sled almost looks like mine! This winter I'm goig to enjoy my sled the way it is now. Hopefully in the next fall I'll have enough money to have a once over on my sled and replace whatever needs replacing..

Right now I need to replace the carbide.Just finished messing around in the field. I'm just waiting for "busniess day" to be open so i can reg and insure my sled and trail permit for sure ( if you are caught without a permit the fine can go up to 2 grand)

 

Here are my new sled and the yamaha is my wife's sled.

I'll have a better picture later on with my snowmobile suit on and helmet. The field we have is a 2 1/2 acre not really big but just enough to destroy fresh snows lol

 

Throw a clutch kit on it and she'll scream!

 

I just got my very first sled over the summer it's a 94 polaris xlt Indy sp. The guy I got it from told me it need some work so he gave it to me for 200 bucks. All that was wrong with it was the chokes were stuck up so I got sum new plunger springs for it and she run's great! Not a bad deal for my first sled I think

 

Hi guys, Rather than making a new thread...just a quick questions my tube for anti-freeze melted as it touched my muffler so i need to replace it. Can i get the tube from auto shop or does it have to be from snowmoile shop?

do i nee to mix coolant with water? I lost quite a bit so i need to refill it.

 

Heater hose will do, and mix 50/50.

 

Thanks man.Gonna try fix it on monday. stores around here are closed tomorrow so I'm sh!t out of luck til then..

 

I had a 94 xlt 580 a few years ago. Great sled and always ran great. Congrats on the new sled and enjoy.

 

Its a good idea to jack the sled up in the front when u are adding coolant and running it so u don't get air bubbles if i remember right

 

Yup^. It'll help prevent air lock.

 

^^ x3

 

well, my wife and I went into the big smokes today so i bought stuff i needed but wrong size hose *groans* That'll be looked after tomorrow. Got the carbide so one ski is off and sitting in the furance room for all the snow to melt.So no sledding for me till next weekend.

 

Well, good news! I just finished putting on one new carbide and they fit like a glove!so one down 1 to go!

I dont think the carbide ever been replaced. The old one was really worn out bad. Looks like I'll be replaceing stuff on my sled in the future.Summer project LOL
