  • Hi and thanks for a great site!
    it's been a while since my last visit but i recently picked up an rxt-x'08 so now im back

    I was out wave-jumping a bit last weekend and my charger started slipping, its reading 41 hrs now, and its the first time ive felt it slip since i bought it (had 33 hrs on it). I loosened the hose to the sc and (after following all instructions) measured the slip to around 7 Nm (62 inch-pounds). So my question is, whats my best alternative:
    1. Get some shims, or should i get washers? Will shims be enough?
    2. Get the complete rebuild-kit.
    Since im from sweden the shipping might take a while thats while im asking what to buy to be safe!
    Thanks in advance!
    old skis:
    2008 RXT-X, almost stock.
    2007 RXT, Washers (cheramics lasted 17hrs...), Riva G2 Wheel, Riva Grate, holes filled, Skat 10/21, 70.7 mph/8120rpm
    2003 GTX SC, Skat impeller
