just picked her up a few weeks ago! Has 3k miles, replaced 4 idler wheels, main rear shock, and hyfax.. now shes just waiting for snow! Only thing im worried about is the drive shaft bearing.... the cats in the 90s are famous for this, the previous owner always greased the fitting, and the speedos still working.. so im hopeing for the best! I added the green running board things that snap on... i pealed off the purple and yellow "ZL" sticker, added the monster decal,, and added the arctic cat sticker on it.. i also added the green ski loops... heres some before pics

you have a nice sled,  Keep it nice and straight.   changing the drive shaft brgs are not really hard, just time.  I suggest you might want to inspect,  Much cheaper to replace brg rather than drive axle.   Al
