I've got a 1979 John Deere Spitfire MOD project that i'm building it currently has a AC ZR 440 sno-pro engine in it, it does not have a jackshaft or chaincase, its direct drive. Now i'm looking for a complete rear suspension with track with a fair bit more suspension than factory. The track has to be 15 inches wide the length doesnt matter at all. If u know of anything around for sale please let me know. It would be very much appreciated. I live in manitoba canada. Thanks for the space and time. Pictures to come very shortly!!!

LOL I found a track and suspension with a conversion kit that will bolt right into the sled. I'm not nuts at all. Its going to be hell of a very fast sled when its done.

The suspension and track is in and I think i was nuts to build this. Since we dont have snow yet i took it out in my back yard and it will lift the skis off the ground to the point of no return or flipping backwards. This is gonna be one fast and fun sled this winter.
