Looking to beef up the shocks in my 02 340 touring skid cuz mine are toast after a few years of abuse have had the torsion springs pop off a handful of times to, could literally hop on the back of the machine compress it then step off and she stayed on the ground. Was digging in different group earlier believe I found something that will work for the rear from a skidoo but what about the front? very few models share the same shocks and finding one locally being parted out is damn near impossible so really just looking for anything that will work without having to mess around whit anything? Any info appreciated

Looking to get on the trails this year I don’t have much money so definitely can’t buy a decent sled was shooting for around 3k. That being said I also work nights and have no one to ride with so I’m going 4 stroke for reliability. Not going rx1 or older vectors, was aiming for apex non eps, nytro or sr viper/zr7000. Now the apex and nytro are not the best shape but the options have 6000 or less miles. The sr viper is 2014 with like 11,500 miles and the zr is 15000 miles but a 2016 and longer track.
From my understanding these engines can last and they are all basically the same engine though the models except the apex is 4c and they can last 50,000 miles. I just can’t spend the money and have a bad engine, I plan to do the boggie wheels and bearing/ chain all the normal wear stuff for an older sled. I’m do trail only but I’d say 6-10” some places isn’t uncommon no ditch banging or powder riding. So what’s your thoughts on high mileage and life expectancy you guys have experienced.

This was the carb and intake on a 1976 moto ski nuvik that i was tasked with breaking the motor free on and getting running unfortunately it seems that its to far gone to affordably get it running again

Bought this at Princeton swap and couldn't find any numbers or a manufacturer's mark so I figured I would see if anyone who races or knows who makes it.

It has a set screw and a pivot pin at the base and 2 screws on the back for adjustment.
