My summit 154 came from the dealer with the ski's set to the narrow setting. I'd assume most are sent that way. Anyone riding them set wider? Only been sledding for 3 years and my previous sleds were tanks compared to this thing. I have one ride on it so far and loved how easy it was to roll on its side, just wondering how moving the ski's out what looks like about an inch does to the sled characteristics.

you wont notice any huge changes. My preference is narrow, if you do alot of trail riding you may want wider. Try both and see what you like.

I put Tom's Snowmobile bushing kit on which centers the ski on the spindle.Less stress on the bushings and works good for me
