got a set of iceage antistab and avid drivers on the anti stab how far back from the leading edge of the wheels should the rails be cut back I cut a nice smooth rounded edge but their only recessed a quarter of an inch or so and for the drivers how loose can you run the track or should I just stick to spec? on a side note I have 2.86 pitch 7 tooth drivers and want to figure out my final gear ratio have 20 40 gears so that's 2.0 but don't know how to figure in the drivers any advice is appreciated thanks!

I thought my last anti stab package came with instructions? Either way, take out your center shock so you can move the front arm of the rear suspension through it's full range of travel to see first if it hits the drivers and if it does measure back to where it dosnt.
I did a drop and roll and kept eight tooth drivers which put the anti stab clear back in the big hole the hifax screw goes into. So you probably won't be that far back

Your about to find out how much is really going on in this pic

Remove the front limiter strap shaft and place the bolt through the shaft on the Pro rmk and AXYS models. Then cut and radius the front of the rail around it. Also make sure to smooth the front of the hyfax off using a grinder to ensure the track clips do not grab the hyfax.

This is how I cut mine. Works great. You might want to round yours a bit more

Two limiter straps are a must. I found out the hard way in '06. Stabbed the track while in the air.
4 wheels are better than 2.

Should be totally fine like that but a tiny bit more radius on the front of the hyfax wouldn't hurt. I have seen someone jam the track into the hyfax and break the mounting scew off sending the hyfax around up into the tunnel... VERY dumb problem that can be avoided with a hair more work on the grinder

sumtinwong · May 18, 2017

thanks all cut and rounded a little more.
does any one know how to figure the ratio? or how loose I can run the track?

Track will need to be tight with out Avid drivers. TIGHT! Always check it!

sumtinwong · May 18, 2017

I just got avid drivers, is it the same ? with stock hade to check/tighten every other ride or I would get the lovely ratchet and it hade to b tighter than I would like just wondering if I can leave it a little looser?

AKFULLTHROTTLE · May 19, 2017

For performance tighter is better but no, it wont ratchet when loose any more. Life will no be better for you! Avid FTW!

AK what did you settle on for clutch work and a final drive ratio? just got silber's kit and they sent me their weights with the hole drilled thro them and weighted alan keys 165-327 spring and a 160-260 secondary spring. I have no doubt it will get me out their but when you are covering 0-12000ft and 3-12 pounds of boost with just weights that's got to leave a lot on the table for the guy at low or hi elevation or hi or low boost {guessing they shot some where in the middle} I am looking at 3 pounds at 0-3 and 5 at 3-6 live in Fairbanks and ride other sleds around hear but will most likely test and tune here and finalize in Cantwell/Summit thanks for the help/input!

If you have a 162, the track should hang .5" under its own weight. That will put the tops of the rubber drive lugs even with the hyfax. You can run it looser that that, but your rolling resistance won't be any less.

You live in AK and did not go though me for a Silber kit? Shame! :face-icon-small-ton

That setup will not work here, will need different weights and helix. We have done testing all season on Indy Specialties and now will be including the setup in my kits.

You can go other routes but again those weight he sent do not have enough weight even at 3# at low normal AK elevation.

I am running close to a 2.3 final ratio.

AKFULLTHROTTLE · May 19, 2017

Yours would be a 2.27 I believe.

Mine is like 2.25... So Ya close to 2.3:1 which is optimal.

yea called your shop....no answer called silber asked if I should just go through u....they said we can take your order asked if I could drive down and get the remap from u they said just send it in to the address on the silber sight. well any way I've got 77 grams in now and can throw 81 grams in max still not enough huuu? what are you wanting for the Indy Specialties set up and what does it entail? or is that something I need to call them over. any way thanks fore the help!!!

Weird, guessing you left no message.

The kit is $475: Helix, Weights, both springs.

You current setup will not work. You can get with Silber and see what they can do for you.

sumtinwong · May 22, 2017

no I did not leave a message the wife said im tired of hearing about it just order it.....I capitalized!!! any way do u have the kits in hand/are the weights adjustable? (I would rather not start a pissing match between silber and you they said the kit would work you said it wont I cant even check it out till next winter. do they know the kits wont work I told them where I live and the elevation? like I said just sounds like a pissing match! as you know every ride is priceless and im not wanting to play around with it half the season to get a tune that workes. past experience on clutches have taught me most kits from down south don't work so great up hear and that tuning a setup involves 3 or 4 helix 8 or 10 springs and 2 or 3 sets of clutch weights by the time I am happy with it! to skip all the BS and just pick up a kit that is tested and proven hear for 475 is going to save me a lot of headache and money thanks again for the help.
