What year of rx do you have? I've got the 03/04 billet drop brackets in stock and the 05' will be ready next week. P.M me for pics and prices.

Devin, I have one on mine. 162x16x2.3 paddles. The combination of this sled with a Turbo and that track is absolutley NUTS!!!!!!!!!! You can ride this sled in powder or hard pack and pull wheelies like a dirt bike at will.

Is it a Camo? Where did you get 2.3 paddles? Camo is 2.5 isnt it? Also what did you have to do to get the 163 tight? I have a 151 skid with 159 extensions, can I suck it up?

Freak, The 2.3" track is made by Camoplast. Go to www.tracksusa.com and you'll see all the new offerings. Your 159 extensions won't work. Buy some 162 extensions.

That 16 wide has to rub in the tunnel when sidehilling? even the edges of my 15' show some signs of rubbing from running a loose track with extroverts. You'd think that would rob hp, I suppose with 230+ who cares?..........I need to minimize the losses with the little guy at only 200hp......lol

Rx-fun is right you won't be able to adjust out the slack, My new track is 2.3 not 2 and 1/2. You could however move the skid back in the tunnel if you didn't want to make or buy new extensions. I just make them its easy and cheap to do.

Put a 159x16x2 on the vector, all we had to do was flatten the rear drop brackets, and cut the end off a bolt sticking out on the chain case side up near the front cooler!

Fever,
Did you have to do a drop and roll for that 2.3 to clear?
