This is a screen-capture from the newest Arctic Cat teaser video for their 2012 snowmobile line.
I see a one-piece spindle w/ball joints, and wide spacing between the A-arms, just like on the Sno Pro 500/600. But definitely a more sculpted spindle.
I couldn't see the dingle-arm but I think I see the

Oh the foreshadowing! I knew right away when he said the voice sounded familiar that the moose was going to be involved again.
I hope he is OK, maybe the MN DNR can capture this moose and study him since we seem to loose 15% of our moose population for unknown reasons each year.

Whoa, looking different for sure!
John, if cat doesnt give us some tech info on what those Tall spindles do for steering/handling we fully expect a piece from you on it.
No wait....scratch that, we want engineer interviews, and whatever else you can dig up on the whole package.
You are gonna be busy for a while after the 8th!

John,
Nice to see the Fox Float Air shocks in use. I've loved them since I uncrated my 2005 440 Sno Pro, but was kind of surprised the 08 and up 600 Sno Pro's had coil springs. Looking forward to the full unvailing:>)

If you look at the silhouette closely you will notice the exhaust exiting from under the seat. Can you 4 stroke. Just a bit of more fuel on the speculation fire. Looking forward to March 8th.

Take a closer look through the video and you can see bits and pieces of the new chassis on the assembly line and so on. There's alot to these videos people aren't looking for.
