156'' with 7 tooth drivers on 153 rails?

richardderkevorkian · Oct 3, 2014

anyone done this?

will i have enough adjustment for the 156 or will i need to track down an offset axle?

my skid is slid back to the 14 position.

thanks!

Yes it will work ...Kincaid and McClure ran this set up last season with an offset rear axle

bummer i was hoping to get away with not running an offset axle. it looks like avid makes one though if i need it.

It just depends on the sled. I have about 30% of the sleds that I do that work without the offset axle. You are using all or nearly all of your adjustment to achieve this. The offset axle solves the problem for the rest and even if you are close you can add the axle later if you get looser. I have been running my 800 for 2 years without and it has been fine, but I only have about 1 and 1/2 turns left for adjustment.

how much are you asking for the black rails, are the the bombers or the race?

Will the X3 fit with stock drivers? They said it wouldn't fit on the Pro without a d&r origionaly, but I proved that wrong. Just looking to see if anyone has tried it.

It will fit, but you have to wedge the driveshaft in and the track is touching the front heat exchanger. I put one in back in 2012 and spent the next hour and half trying to get the driveshaft back out.

There are guys running them like this, but I would not recommend it.

You also want some room for snow to evacuate from the tunnel. It may "fit" but ultimatly all that snow will slow down track speed.

Hmmm..... Ice Age told me not to powder coat their rails as it made them weaker. Were they right?
