Backcountry Gear: Phazer Moutain Lite and Cheetah Factory Racing



Cheetah Factory Racing Snowboard Rack InstallInstalling a CFR Snowboard Rack on a 2007 Yamaha Phazer Mountain Lite snowmobile requires a couple of slight modifications to the sled and also to the rack hardware. Below is a series of pictures and brief description of what AKD and I did to get the rack installed. CFR Racks are bomber and I’m really happy with the product, check them out at http://cheetahfactoryracing.com

Disclaimer: This requires you to drill into certain areas on your brand new sled. Double and triple check everything, you don’t need to follow these directions 100% - They are meant to serve as a guide as to what we did to get things working. Your install should be pretty close. weknowsnow.com

This method doesn’t need an air rivet gun for installation.

Step 1: Read, Understand CFR directions and assemble rack

Step 2: Remove red stock Phazer reflectors from tunnel

Step 3: Remove Phazer rear tunnel box

Step 4: Install snowboard in CFR Rack, place between tail binding or position which ever way works best.

Step 5: Place the metal J hook just behind the first rivet on the tunnel just under the Phazer rear tunnel box. (which you removed earlier)

Step 6: Mark metal J hook upper hole locations with Sharpie.

Step 7: Place CFR U bracket over recently removed reflector area. Mine mounted under the reflector holes almost flush with the tunnel support.

Step 8: Mark locations of lower CFR U bracket.


Step 9: Drill Holes for upper metal J hook. Secure with hex key bolts and nylon nuts. Washers on both sides. Optional: Drill a new 3rd hole in the center of the J bracket for added stability. As the two holes closest to the J in the J bracket are not used on the Phazer install.Additional Hardware Required:

(3) Hex Key Bolts - #10-24 x 3/4″
(6) Washers - #10
(3) Nylon Nuts - #10-24 LOCK NUT COARSE

Step 10: Drill Holes for lower CFR U bracket. Secure with CFR hardware.


Step 11: Install Phazer rear tunnel box

Step 12: Go snowmoshredding ASAP and checkout CFR!

    Nice setup, but the real question is whether or not that rack will hold skis? :)

    bahh forget all that ski talk!! haha
    CFR makes a pretty sweet ski rack system too, maybe we’ll have to hook that up

    Any of you know where the best place to source and buy parts for the phazer that make it less “tippy”.
