I bought this skid off of SW
http://www.snowestonline.com/forum/showthread.php?t=327007
pulled apart cleaned, greased, packed bearings installed anti-stab and painted
removed my OE 153 skid to install my 162 track and I think the cat skid is a 153
now what??? buy rails, extensions, set-back??
is there a measurement on for the rails?

I have 153 rails extended to 162 in my nytro ill mesure my rails and my total rail with extensions for you if you want.

In a straight line without taking the curve in account from the teflon tip to the back of my stock 153 rail it mesures 60 and 3/4 inchs with the extensiion it mesures 64 and 1/4 inchs.

Hope this Helps.

I beleive I got a 153
so now do I buy extensions or
162 rails? what year rails would fit?????


I would be talking to mad max to find out why he is selling things on SW under false pretence, I know if I was to buy something that was advertised as a 162 and got a 153, no matter how good of a deal it could of been, I would be pissed...

then if he isnt going to attempt to make things right, just get an extension its a bit cheaper but if you are wanting looks go to iceage rails

Those arent king cat rails. It looks like an 07 M series skid for sure.
07 153 rails measure 62" from plastic rail tip to end.
