How tight do you run your track?

Braaap12 · Jan 30, 2016

Wondering how tight you guys run your track on a 155 2014 pro(stock track) I tightened it up as per the owners manual and its way to tight, I could see chunks or my sliders coming off today. It was starting to ratchet so I tightened it as per the manual now its to tight. Was wondering if there's a happy/medium. I don't have the money to add extroverts and all that stuff. Thanks!

Factory spec. Chunks of your sliders, huh?

Always tensioned mine as per manual, never had a problem.

Factory specs also or a little less Does seem tight tho. What do you mean by chunks of sliders. Seems weird.

looked like the sliders were being shaved off with a knife, I must have had it too tight

Make sure you have it running straight. The shaving is most likely to be from the upper part of the clips rubbing against the side of the hyfax. No way should the main body of the clips shave off any of the hyfax, unless it was so tight that the engine could barely turn the track.

If you set the tension as the manual says (10lbs or whatever at the right spot, X amount of gap), it should not be too tight.

Sound like maybe a broke or bent clip perhaps. I would check them all over.

Tighten exactly to spec, best option on the pro with the stock rear suspension. If clips, rails, and alignment are good, it won't be an issue.
