I have the same sled,same year. 2022 xrs renegade 850. Definitely OEM spare skidoo belt. Rebuilt my shocks also,and everything else you did. Plus put in 1.6” new track. See you out there!
I bet it's safe to say that you love the sled! Were you as impressed with the smart shox as I am? Thanks for the vote Eugene. One more for OEM belt. Maybe we'll see you on the trail.
@@Paisteboy Definitely OEM BELT! I spring ordered mine very early. So when I got mine from smiths. It was the first one w/smart shocks totally completed. I met with the skidoo rep for a while,it was really cool to talk to him. Smart shocks are awesome! I rebuilt my shocks over the summer of 23 and haven’t rode it since. Can’t wait to get out there!
Nice!
Who rebuilt your smart shox?
OEM belt. Buy 2, throw one on the clutch cover for a spare
Thanks Jason. One more vote for OEM.
My vote is OEM. All I have used. Great luck with them. Gotten 7k miles out of OEM belt.
One more vote for OEM. Thanks DareDog.
Ultimax ! Dangle with the best. ☃️👍👍❤️
Thanks Bruce. I'm keeping score.
Awesome video ! Think Snow
Thanks. On my way back from a two days of riding in Old Forge.
Sled looks great, we'll be on the snow in no time!
Can't wait! Hopefully in about a week or less. Thanks for watching FalvyPollard.
Great video brother. It looks like it's gonna start snowing. Be safe out there keep the shiny side up😎 Ultra max belt
Thanks you Alan! We have some but it won't make to the next storm unfortunately. Ultimax is a consideration. Thanks, you too!
Definitely go OEM belt.
Thanks for the feedback and for watching.
Great Vid as always Paisteboy! I rode around the yard yesterday to try out my 02 ZR 500 I just bought. We are heading to the mountain tomorrow here in central PA. Also we are taking a trip to Old Forge Early next month for the first time. Super excited
Thank you mino. I'm assume it's running well. Enjoy your trip to Old Forge. Will it be your first time riding there?
@@Paisteboy Yeah it held together so far. Yes, this is our first time riding Old Forge area and I'm super excited!
Nice! I hope you have a ton of snow for your tip!
Only after market belt I would run is Ultimax but I typically try to run OEM
Thanks Eric. The only aftermarket belt that I was considering was the Ultimax but OEM is winner in votes at this point. Thanks for watching.
All ready to go , just need snow. OEM BELT !
We have snow now but it's not cold enough to ride on. It is wet heavy snow and would be destroyed in a few hours if the trails opened. Maybe a week from now. Thanks Mark. It's sounding like the OEM belt is the way to go.
Good video. Should have rode. We got 10 inches here in northeast pa and trails were really good. Some water, but now rain coming and we will be back to 0. Sucks
Thanks Bigdaddy. The trails didn't open here and no one want to drive 3 hours for bad trails. Maybe next weekend.
Hey Paisteboy
Another great video....much appreciated!
I would put your existing belt as a spare and put your spare if new on the sled! Save a a bit of cash! Lol
Looking forward to seeing upcoming videos on the trails with Zuke and the gang! See you on the next one!
Hopefully we will get on the trails up here soin as well!
Cheers Dave from Ontario, CAN
I would like I replied in your other comment, The new belt that is on the clutch cover is a brand new belt that I never used on my Blizzard so it's not the same belt and my current belt will be the back up.
Those Fett Brothers rollers are a good upgrade for everyone - be conscience of slapping the clutches when going from reverse to forwards or after long decel as that is real hard on the rollers. Hit the clutches with compressed air after every ride, it'll help keep them alive. That's kinda sad to see the condition of those industry top of the line e-shocks - that's too new to have that kind of damage. Chain case oil every single year, grase the machine up on the stand every other ride and perform a visual inspection - simple little things keep you on the trail, not on the side of it.
Belts - don't feel that you are married to OEM, Timken makes fantastic belts through their Ultimax line. Buy whatever you want and take your current spare and toss that over the clutches and put your new belt in the spare belt holder - this keeps your belts fresh. Wash the new belt with warm soapy water and put it on so you can read the writing, it makes it easy to remember which way to goes on after you clean the sheaves after every 500 miles of riding.
Thanks for all of the great tip Kyle. I do all of those things to try to preserve the rollers in the secondary and it has seemed to help all of these years. The Smart Shox didn't have any damage they just needed a rebuild as most shocks would have after 2400 miles. Thanks for watching Kyle.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks Ziggy!
that seems like alot of maintenance for a new sled.great video though.my belt has 5000 miles on it still going.
Some people do this much every season. I figured that I rode it pretty hard for 2 seasons so it gave me peace of mind. It was a very good price or else I would have opted for less work to be done. I had 4800 miles on my 600 Blizzard before I sold it but with the 850 I was not going to risk a belt blowing on the lake and have damage done to my sled. It happened to Gary and Shag. It's not worth it. If you have an 850 and do high speeds around 90 MPH or more I would change it.
Ultimax belt
It's funny because Ultimax is the only aftermarket belt anyone is recommending. I more vote for Ultimax. 👍
That sucks the Ryobi drill didn't work. My cordless Ryobi lifts sleds on my lift no problem. But it has to be on low gear. A plug in drill is a great idea too!
Yeah but that's ok because I got to buy a big power toll! lol. Thanks for watching Patrick.
@@Paisteboy you'll never run out of battery with it! Lol love the videos!
Thanks Pat!
Definitely go with OEM belt. To save a penny isn’t worth in my opinion. What made you have the dealer do all this service when your capable ? Besides the shocks everything seemed straight forward. Great video!
Thanks for the feedback on the belt. This was done at a one-man personal shop, not a dealer. I am capable but the Smart Shox are not a simple removable like all the shocks that I've done in the past. They could be damaged during the removal process and is more involved than I wanted to risk. The Smart Shox rebuild was all I was going to have done when I dropped off the sled. Then as we were talking he gave me a really good deal on all of the stuff that I ended up having done that I couldn't say no. I also don't have any clutch tools. I have the chaincase oil already but that was part of the package deal. Thanks for watching Adam.
It is nice to just drop it off and let someone else do it as well. 😊still no snow here in Minnesota. 😢
It really is!! We have snow but need it to be colder for the trails to open locally.
OEM belt
Thanks for the vote.
Another great video, where is Carson Racing located ?
Thanks Jeff. He is in the Buffalo area. It's a small one man shop. Really nice guy.
@@Paisteboy Thanks, I live in Buffalo area, will check him out.
Cool. He's in Old Forge every weekend once the riding season starts so you'll have to catch him during the week at this point.
How many miles on your sled.
I have almost 2400 miles on my sled.
Ride the belt till it blows!!! If you aren’t blowing belts are u really having fun!? Haha
I've seen Gary and Shag do sled damage when a belt blows on a lake at high speeds. If the belt blows at lower trail speeds then that's not a big deal. It just makes a mess but we all know that's not when they blow. lol. Thanks for watching Andrew.
@@Paisteboy i totally agree haha the mess sucks and luckily I haven’t had any sled damage yet but yes I very much agree! Just praying for snow here in Michigan!
For sure! ❄❄❄
No snow
We got 6" of snow but the ground is not frozen so no open trails locally. Not worth driving 3 hours to Old Forge for the poor beginning season trail conditions.
Those rollers have been breaking for years. Why in the world doesn't Skidoo do something about that ?????
Good point! They should partner with Hi Torque and do it right from the factory. Thanks for watching Rusty.
Sledaddicz guys just had one break on a brand new 24.
I heard! That is surprising. Glad I changed mine out for the hi torque.
You couldn't do any of that stuff yourself instead of paying for a dealer to do it. Could have saved some money. You work on stuff, I've seen it. That's just basic maintenance.
You're right but the Smart Shox could be damaged during the removal process and is more involved than I wanted to risk. The Smart Shox rebuild was all I was going to have done when I dropped off the sled. Then as we were talking he gave me a really good deal on all of the stuff that I ended up having done that I couldn't say no. I had the chaincase oil already but that was part of the package deal. This was done at a one-man personal shop, not a dealer. Thanks for watching Jim.
