Track Replacement on 1984-1998 Yamaha Phazer & Setting Chaincase Tension

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

In this video, I'm going to show you how to swap out a worn out track for a new(er) track on a 1993 Yamaha Phazer 2, but the procedure should be the same for pretty much any year Phazer, and similar to a lot of other snowmobiles from this era.
I'd never done this before but it wound up being pretty easy!
00:00 Intro
01:19 Remove Skid
02:26 Remove Exhaust
03:33 Chaincase Disassembly
05:10 Speedometer/Bearing Removal
05:36 Driveshaft Removal
06:23 Tunnel Inspection & Track Weighing
08:35 Setting Chaincase Tension
Exhaust Spring Hook Tool, Cheap, works decent!

Stay tuned for a lot more Phazer content, cheers boys!

    Thanks for this video. I'm rebuilding my Phazer Skid right now, and want to replace ALL of the bearings in the drive train. That means taking the jack shaft and drivers out to check those bearings too. Cheers

    On a sled that old you might want to replace the driveshaft & jackshaft bearings while you have it apart. The bearings on the chain case side seem to last longer with the lube they get from the gear oil but I've had a few driveshaft bearings fail on the opposite side. The bearing will let go and snap the speedo cable so that is a good indication of a bearing failure. Also, you can make some tunnel protectors by attaching hyfaxes directly above the windows in the track.

    If your trails get icy you will be glad you have the studs, stopping\slowing down without them can be a real pain in the front end

    Yep, I actually prefer no studs in the corners as you can slide it around a bit more (fun!) but the no stopping thing can get really expensive and painful quick.

    Ehhhhh might be about the same, as it's heavier but also a lot better traction. Biggest thing for me is I like having brakes, and when the track is basically a belt sander they don't stop very well at all.

    That's a aftermarket exhaust. good for 12-14hp, you want it, verify 148.8 main jets and 110 pilot or you could melt it down. Put tunnel protectors in or take the studs out, or they will tear up the tunnel (more).
