For a spring tool I used a 3/4" by 1/8" by 18" long piece of steel I had laying around and drilled a hole right near the end along the edge and one on the bottom end of it to look similar to the tool you have there! Didn't know they made them, granted I lived in North Pole AK at the time and options are limited. Mine works good on the exhaust as it's a little bendy to fit around the can on my old summit x 600 etec.
i have a 2016 rev xp chassis and according to the title this video is suppose to show me how to remove the hood but it doesnt. you should have specified which chassis in the title.
they don't want you to work on your own sled...they want you to bring it to the dealer so them hacks can work on it and charge you a fortune. Don't buy into it....learn the sled...work on it yourself...f**k skidoo
You are right, nice catch. We did re install the air boot, but apparently it never made it into the video. This often is an overlooked step when re installing the hood but it's certainly critical to the survival of your motor. Thanks for the heads up, we'll have to revise this video.
So you wanna check your coolant/oil maybe spark plugs. I’d need 2 guys special torx tools remove gauges and pretty much a fucking degree on how to remove a fuckin hood on a Skidoo. Come on Skidoo, make this simpler. Wow
You guys did a really shitty job describing how to get it back on. Been fighting with mine over an hour because when I have the two front clips in, there’s a 1” gap between the brackets that need screwed together.
Great job describing all the little details as you disassemble/reassemble. 9/10 on the finger scale.

Thanks for this video. Very well done.
How do get access to the reverse actuator motor?
Very helpful video. But I'd suggest turning off the music and miking the guys better so they are easier to understand.
Thanks for a quick but informative video!
good info , and straight to the point , thanks
I hope you connected the intake boot during hood re-install. 😉

you would figure an engineer could design something a little less hectic

Thanks!
You forgot to re-attach and tighten the air box when putting it back together.
Doh!

How do you remove the wings
found this in 2020 ! thank you for the video & getting right to the point , very helpful
You do not have to remove the screws underneath the wind deflector to remove the hood.
flat6_dante 2 on top under gauge and 2 at the front at top under side panel
So how do you take the bottom nose cone off with the rivets???
Unfortunately, I had to drill out the factory rivets and replace with the plastic autobody rivets.

Great job
Did not tighten airbox connection
Is this the same for skidoo do?
Can you clarify the question?
Lol
Thank-You

Comrade Everclear maybe in the future get your BRP Dealer to assist you. The last thing you want is have your hood flying off on the trail. Good luck.
All that to remove the f++++king exhaust.....WTF!
