TRX Student 151 Posted February 3, 2020 Hey guys, The shed I work in is tiny. But its all I got. I want to finish the front end of the 300 before I throw the rear axle and hubs on (yea, the shed is that small). In order to get the progress going on the front, I'd like to get the drum delete kit. Asking the pros for pricing help. I've found acouple kits, (correct me if I'm wrong) they all look to be more or less the same. Anyone have knowledge on the cheapest source for the delete kit? (Ebay seller, or amazon, or website) No one up here has used a car hood for a sled.....yet. Any trips by skidoo are fairly long, like minimum 40km (25 miles) to a hunting camp and back. That's a rough precarious ride on a hood lol. This weekend I ripped around on my salvaged Skandic 440F LT. For those in the far south that's the snowmobile world's equivalent to the Honda 300. Good times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TRX Student 151 Posted February 3, 2020 Best I can find is US$ 220 plus US$ 60 shipping and import (CDN$ 290 plus 75 shipping and import). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeepwm69 7,619 Posted February 3, 2020 SuperATV would be your cheapest kit that's decent quality. They usually have a 10% discount on different forums if you nose around on the internet. Which brings up a good point. We probably ought to see if they would do it for us here on this forum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fishfiles 20,145 Posted February 4, 2020 SuperATV has been very helpful and friendly with me , nothing but good to say from me about SuperATV .... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TRX Student 151 Posted February 5, 2020 As far as I can tell, even with the super atv discount I can get the kit off of eBay for about 10$ cheaper. Splicing hairs I know, but I’m kind of forced to do that where I live, otherwise I end up spending waaay more than I need to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TRX Student 151 Posted February 5, 2020 For my Canadian peeps, kimpex also has the kit at 387.99 with free shipping, however, seller on eBay atv_outfitters_1 sells it to me for 347.71 including shipping and import. not bad. superatv with 10% discount 383.22 not including import charges Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fishfiles 20,145 Posted February 5, 2020 Right now I can get that same kit for $207 + free shipping --- cheapest I found on e-bay is $249 with free shipping ---- so you $140 more , would think some of that is extra shipping , but the majority is duties , taxes , fees ? ---- be careful of the Chinese kits on e-bay , but they could even be the same thing , they look the same Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toodeep 1,758 Posted February 5, 2020 Do you have any Parts Canada (Parts Unlimited here) dealers in your area? If I remeber right they have the highlifter disk brake kits which are also good. Might not hurt to price locally just in case its comparable in price with the shipping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
