About Accessories
Snowmobile accessories include the oils and tools that keep a sled running through the season, along with items for hauling and storage. The listings range from clutch tools and track tools to wrench sets, fork seal drivers, grease, shock fluid, filter oil and tie-downs. Owners shop here before a big service job, for a tool that is made for one brand of sled, or to stock the garage and trailer.
Tools in this category are often model-specific. A drive clutch tool, for example, is listed for a certain brand, such as Arctic Cat, so check the listing against your machine. For general tools, check whether a wrench set is metric or SAE. Fluids are chosen from your manual: engine oil by type and grade, two-stroke or four-stroke, shock fluid by weight, and filter oil only for foam filters.
The category divides into Chemicals & Lube, Cleaning & Detailing and Misc. Accessories. Brands here include Fox, Woody's, Helix and Lucas. The parent is Snowmobile. Pick your sled in the Ride Finder at the top of the page for parts.
FAQs on snowmobile tools and accessories
Do snowmobile clutch tools fit every brand?
No. Clutch pullers and spider tools are made for specific clutch designs, and listings name the brand or model. Check that the tool matches your clutch, and follow your service manual for the removal steps.
Should I buy a metric or SAE wrench set for my snowmobile?
Check the fasteners on your machine. Many snowmobiles use mostly metric hardware, but some parts may be SAE, and the listing states which a set is. Owning both gives you coverage for odd jobs, and it avoids rounding off a bolt with the wrong size.
What are fuel line clamping pliers used for?
They pinch a fuel hose shut so fuel does not run out while you service a filter or fitting. Use them only on hose that is in good condition, work in a ventilated space, and keep ignition sources away.
What does foam filter oil do?
On a foam air filter, filter oil is what traps dust. After you clean and dry the foam, work the oil in evenly and squeeze out the excess. Do not use it on paper filters.
How do I choose shock fluid for my snowmobile?
Use the weight and type the shock or sled maker specifies, since the viscosity affects damping. Listings state the weight, such as light shock fluid. Follow the service instructions, and do not mix different fluids.
