hey guys just trying to guage interest on a tunnel support kit. I will be having a set laser cut to rivet on my sled. They will not interfear with the stock traction "stars" and was wondering if any one else would be interested?

Will an 07 need them or do they have it cured do you think?

From the pics I have seen on the 07s, it doesn't look like they added supports.

It's not like every Crossfire or M7 will have a bent tunnel without them. I've got 1,600 miles on mine without damage. But I'd like to add them just for peace of mind...you never know when that one wicked bump is gonna hit just right.

I'm interested, was going to add the polaris parts, but don't really want to
zekester
Can someone enlighten me on where the tunnels are bending & what the supports will do? Over 3000 mi. on mine. Thanks.
bkuku2
I would be interrested in a set. Figure a price also. No bent tunnel yet but would like the insurance.

There were a few guys who bent the tunnel right where your feet are located, it is a little weak there and several people have got polaris tunnel supports or the 440 sno pro ones and put them on towards the front. I tried to locate the forum but couldn't find it.

There alot of us who have not bent ours yet but want the extra insurance. KROM is taking initiative so we don't have to use the Pol product for several reasons. One is you have to punch down the little grip stars.

Hope this has helped.
Krom
I dont have an exact cost yet as it will depend on how many I order, and I don't know what I can say without violating the no advertising policy. PM for details
klj
I would be interested.

Would the supports cover the serial #? I was concerned that the Poo supports would cover the serial #.....not sure if I should be concerned about this or not?

Any details? Material thickness, length, bare aluminum?, etc.

Go here,

CF Bent Tunnel
X-Fire 6
Yes I would be interested too!
HiVoltageF6
I would maybe be interested if cat hasn't come up with something for 07.
Krom
Here is a screen shot of the design, hope it doesn't get stolen...
.073" 6061 can be powdercoated any color or left bare (my sno pro has a bare tunnel so I havent bothered getting a price on powdercoating yet)

The sleds at the show have the same tunnel as in 06, and there are no braces in the 07 accy cat.
Wood
Looks great! Any idea on price yet?
Jester
I'm interested as well.

700CrossFire
Looks great you have my interest.
Kevin
It seems that all or most of the new Cats for 07 are being built without the supports. Are they doing something different?
F6FirecatEFI
Looks great. Black powder coat would be great. Get a price and let us all know. Great job going the extra distance to figure this stuff out!!!!

Still working on a price for powdercoat. Natural finish will be $79.95 for a kit including both sides, and high strenght rivets. It will be 8 to 10 weeks till they are ready.

Krom,

I sent you a PM.

Thanks!
HiVoltageF6
Will you have some of these supports throughout the summer Krom....Will you ship to Canada?
Krom
Shipping to Canada shouldn't be a problem US post office is pretty easy. I way underestimated demand, so I had to find a different place to laser cut them, but they are on order. I will post up here when I have an idea on delivery time. Right now it looks like $10 for black powder coat. Custom colors will be available, but the price may vary.

Krom
JLeosnow
Krom,
Do you have a set finished and installed on your X-Fire? If so, could you post an installed pic of them?

Thanks,
