    Finally!! This sereis allowed me to replace the track and drive cogs on my 1969 amf ski daddler! It has the exact same drive cog and track system as those skidoos.

    The appropriate video opening for this sled. If anyone gives this video a thumbs down you need to have your head examine. Good luck lifting the new sled with one arm and hitting the flipper! She's a thing of beauty, Louie! Well done, Sir.

    You bring up an excellent point about questioning why they don't make something as simple as hell and stuffl. There are enough of us out there that would purchase it compared to buying one of those new alien bug looking things!

    I think these were a sensation in 1970-71 at about $600 USD? We sold our 318e Olympic and moved south in ‘71, never to ride again… those were some high adventure days, age 16!
