2007 Arctic Cat M8

What was your intended objective when you started the build?

To put together a clean reliable sled that wouldn’t let us down.

What motivated you to start your project?

My husband and I wanted to build a mountain sled from the ground up.

What was the most unique and creative thing you did to the sled?

Modified the rear of the tunnel to update it.

What are you most proud of?

When the sled was done it ran perfect and worked excellent for me while I rode in the mountains of Montana and Idaho as the only girl with a group of guys…and I kept up.

What do other people say about your snowmobile?

VERY nicely done – and a great job polishing the tunnel.

So, sitting around with my buddies looking up specs and ratings about our sleds. Find an interesting picture. Click on it, hey this sled has the same running boards as my current sled. And the same knee pads and bags too… And same rear wheels. Look at the matching DNR number. And I have to say 5 star build. She’s still running like a champ. (Hood was swapped before I got it though)
