Looking to put together another pair of skis for the 82 Intruder. We have three that sort of match, but each one has issues. The best of the three has a kink in the front loop. I can probably live with that. The second best has a different style loop and a few holes in the underside just about where the ski starts to curl up off the ground. The third has a great front loop but looks like swiss cheese on the bottom. I want to try to avoid buying another sled just to get a ski.

Can you weld? You may be able to remove the ski loop from the battered ski and replace the one with a kink in it?
Those look like 81' Invader or 81-82 LTD skis. Were they the same as the 82' Intruder? I thought they had wider and taller springs than the Intruders?

I do have a MIG, but I don't consider myself an artistic welder. Yes, I do believe that these came off of one or more LTD. All of our Intruder skis look worse.

You know buying another sled just brings more potential ;D.

The LTD ski's will be taller...Sounds like a great reason to buy another sled!

You guys are forgetting that I have to clean-out my storage space. I have a 24 x 60 building dedicated to the sleds. They are all going to need to find a new location. And, since i don't have comparable available space, that means much of it will need to go to a new home.

You don't really think that story will work??? Or maybe go to a swap with wrenches and only take home the stuff you need???
