So I have read everything I can about the junk idlers on these sleds....My question arrives because every post I can see, says that the thing to do is upgrade to the doo wheels...well thats all fine and dandy, but my sled is an RTX and I have yet to find the hyfax saving solution for an RTX, everything I can find is either a GT or some other sled...Nobodys suggestions have an RTX skid.....What exactly do I need to buy????? I want to have a fully reliable and smooth running rear skid.. I have new hyfax and am ready to get this thing going...Headin to the U.P. on Feb 5 so I need to get it done this week....My sled also has a CPR turbo so I am stuck with keeping the track extra tight anyway so I need all the help I can get.....Hopefully you guys can help!!!!!!!!!!
 
first it sounds like you need to get anti ratcheting driver coggs. The you can run the track much much looser. Then just add a marginal snow kit. which consists of extra wheels. Thats just my opinion.

I already have extroverts....And it will still rachet with all the power if the track is too loose..and when it does that the studs hit the top of the tunnel and rip the aluminum apart....(dont ask me how I know that)....So I need the upgraded idlers for the thing and also the best marginal snow kit...not this cheap itty bity wheels kit...the real big ones...
 
I have gotten good wear out of my hyfax by replacing the front bogey wheels every 1500-2000 miles. They wear quick which helps inwearing out the hyfax. Plus the fact that they are usually bent anyway. Granted its kind of pricey and not a great solution and I also do not have a turbo so I am sure your situation is magnified just my solution good luck
 
Ok...What is the best low snow kit to buy??? I tried the FIX powersports one with the tiny little wheels and didnt last 200 miles....what is the best one to buy for an 07 RTX?? Ive gotta get this thing ready to rock for next weekend....Let me know guys, I need all the help I can get..Need to order parts tomorrow...
