Small and Sturdy - Life Hack - Walker Mower
Firstly, I cannot speak to how well these would work with a snowmobile. I purchased these because I have a walker mower, which is a three wheel model, and I need to be able to move it around in the garage Ihad originally planned to use small movers dollies, but in the mowing season those would take up quite a bit of room and even cheap moving dollies are $10-$20 a piece for wood.These are heavy duty steel powder coated platforms. They are very small and compact which is great for storing, but when in use you have to be careful to keep wheels on the platform by locking the parking brake and using a strap (not included). As other reviewers have stated, the wheels do catch on nearly anything, so you want to be careful not to push your machine off the dollies.The issue with the wheels is a result of The product needing to be compact as well as the price point. The great thing is that these are simple off-the-shelf casters held on with a locking nut. If you wanted an "off-road" model you could simply replace with skate wheel casters or even larger pneumatics. The platforms are very heavy duty and I personally believe would hold more than 1500 pounds.I believe the primary limitation on the weight limit of this product is at the casters. If you get heavier casters you could probably double the weight limit in my opinion. Maybe you could buy something off the shelf with these heavier casters already installed, but I seriously doubt anyone makes an "off-road" model that would run on gravel. Here you have the perfect platform to create what you want.For me the product is perfect. Many of the snowmobile dollies have a large raised lip for the skis. This obviously would not work for my application and so I have purchased this model that has a completely flat bed except for the indentation for the skis. I can see how this indentation on the two dollies would actually be perfect for something like a snowplow, which another reviewer has mentioned.As long as you understand what you're getting I believe you will be happy with this product.

Nit worth the money
Wheels are to small. Bought three sets for our snowmobiles. Can't move them around in garage because the wheels get stuck in cracks then bend

Oh well probably better off doing it myself
Wasn't aware assembly was required... Oh well probably better off doing it myself. Sled is now off the floor and able to be moved around my garage at ease. For $30 they'll get the job done.

Weak casters
Pretty weak casters and bearings. doesn't have a through bolt, just a little keeper washer. Used about a month (maybe 4 times) for snowmachine on concrete. The wheels started wobbling and bearings found on the floor. I drilled mount holes larger so that I could tighten the wheels against the platform. Squirted bearings w/ spray grease. Now they don't swivel too well, but at least they'll protect my garage floor. Will become my backup.

Wheels
I liked this product, especially the wheels.

Not a good review
Like other reviews state, they won’t roll over their own shadow. My sleds weigh about 400lbs and 3 of the casters (out of 24 total-bought 2 sets) have fallen apart. Pay a little extra and get something that will last.
