Snow + M715 = Happy kids

The kids wanted to play in the snow and so did I. They wanted to burn energy and I wanted to burn gas. We all ended up having fun. I was happy with the 715 in 2 wheel drive. The snow wasn't deep but a couple of small hills didn't stop it. In 4x4 it really did well for not having a locker. I would love to repower this w/ a locker.

M809 hoods work the best! just be sure to remove the latches on the top of the hood first! I pulled my sled out already, just waiting on the snow!!!!!!! :D

From my experience a power lock in the front axle and leave the rear open diff. This eliminates the harsh wear on the rear tires from a locker and gives you double the traction in the heavy front end area. This setup will take you 95% of anywhere you want to go and keep you ridin good on dry roads.
