Does anyone know if the skis on the 77 TNT and 77 Oly are the same? I can't locate a parts manual and I know one of you guys must have one?
Thanks,

I'm willing to bet that they are the same in 77. The techspec's manual from 74-77 says that the steering system (internally) is the same between them in that year. I've owned both before but never at the same time and they really looked the same. I also remember a long time ago being able to buy aftermarket replacements and there was only one you could buy. So I'm going with yes they are the same.

Thanks for the input Vince, I am in agreement with you. I have a spare set that appear to identical to the ones on my 77 TNT. I want to use them on the 77 Oly I just picked up. I want to get the current spreaders and skis off of the Oly since I'm not a fan of this set-up and I tend to like things to be as original as possible.

Per the 77 parts manual, here are the ski part numbers
Oly 300/340 P/N 505 0189 00 Oly 440 P/N 505 0203 00 THT F/C and F/A P/N 505 0189 00 TNT Everest 340/440 P/N 505 0189 00 In 78, Oly had a unique P/N not shared with anything else. TNTs, RV, Everest and Blizzard had same P/N. All 78 Ski P/N were new, no overlap with 77

Very interesting G&G. You really have to wonder how different are they? Is there different part numbers for the ski legs too?

Thanks for the research, G&G! Hmmm, Like olyman said, wonder just what the difference is? By the way, I emailed Guy Pepin at the Bombardier Museum and he was able to send me copies of the 77 Oly and 77 TNT parts manuals. So, if anyone needs either of these, let me know I can email them to you. It's so great that they are willing to doo this for us!
