02 151 is getting a 16", track drivers help

oldandnew said:

I have been doing some measuring before I start. It appears that my drivers all may need to be moved about 1/4" to be centered.

Has anyone had success in moving them a bit and how?

I hope this track is worth it, this has turned into a large project! New running board supports, new drop brackets, special bolts, now moving the drivers!

Thanks in advance.

Your gonna love that track!! Night and day different between that stock doo track and the camo 16" wide. Take your time and get that track centerd in the tunnel, figure out how far the drivers need moved and mark on the shaft where you want them to end up. Using a press (I assume the drive shaft is out), simply move each driver the distance needed. Be sure to remove a little off the chaincase bolt heads (the ones right in the path of the track edge). Also, add a spacer washer between each end of the skid attach points to "spread" the tunnel a hair for added clearance. I did all this to a 94 summit and had ZERO problems for three years and that track was the single best upgrade I did....along with a string of mods that I wouldn't have room to type.........I hope this helps!

You should really spring for a set of extrovert drivers if you have things off, makes a heck of a differance with rolling resistance.

Instead of button heads you can get the REV chaincase bolts. Or, just grind down the existing ones 1/2 the thickness and call it good. That is what I did for my '01.
