i have an older style clamshell top and my new xp doesn't fit all that well. i was thinking of maybe just modifying it to be liek the new style in the front. i only need a few inches to make it fit how i want it. if anyone does this or knows someone who does i would appreciate it.

I would recommend going to Dyers Sled Dock in Nottingham,NH. They are just south of Route 4 on Route 156. They probably have all of the pieces pre made. I had them fix mine after tree and windstorm damage. Excellant work, great price, and fast turnaround.

I have had this problem before when I put other people's sleds in my trailer and it does not fit. A quick fix that I do is put a 2x4 under the skis and it raises it up a little and gives you a few inches. It is not the best way and you may want something more useful, but it is a temporary fix

depending how you wanted it to look i could do something. not sure how to do it yet, id need to see what you have and what you need. i would be able to custom make anything. hard to weld that thin alum tho, but i could always pits burg it or what not. if you dont have anyone to do it right im sure i could custom make something.
