When sled is airborn or suspenion is hanging it can rub.. (track will bounce up and down)

Ive got studs right down the middle with the track set a factory specs, and have NO wear issues!

the track wore into the shock on my Old ZR700 too..

Not much room up there between the track and the shock!

I also have studds down the middle, no signs of any wear on shock clevis or the track.

track does rub, not enough of a problem i guess. just dont use angled backers(pic below) for studs up the very center.

If it rubs a bit it is not a big deal.

Keep yoour eyes open if your running studs.
