2020 SRX Drivers and track issue.

[Muskrat62]

Would someone please tell me how the extrovert drivers are held In Place on driveshaft? 2020 SRX Are they pressed on and locked on somehow? Mine are not in ideal place for my track window and it is causing me alignment and wear issues. Here are a couple pictures. One driver rubs on side of track while the other is centered nicely. Thoughts?
Thanks

There pressed on and can be moved if needed.

Pto side? (Clutch)
Since 2014 (viper) i have seen lots of them being to much inside. Remember the space between the drive shaft bearing and the litle space we have between it and the clip...

Maybe thats were they got it wrong a bit there. Theory...

Thanks, I take it to move the drivers you have to take the drive shaft out and use a press??

What is the distance between the extroverts inside measurement

Good luck I had the same problem with my Viper I switched to inverted drivers and that solved the problem. Way easier on the track much easier to adjust track and all n all quieter. I also think it might have gave me a little more on the big end. The track moves so much easier it's not even funny.

What do you mean by inverted drivers?

The drivers do not go through the windows on the track.. They stay on top of the track. They "grab" the track differently. If you see these drivers you will notice right away DMC. I have a 2021 8000 Cat that has them stock.. And yes they are usually faster UP TOP. Not saying the 21 Cat is fast up top..

Extroverts are need on sleds with lot’s of power, to help stop track ratcheting.

Ya says who if all your doing is racing you may have problems, trail riding your fine I know guys useing them on tuned Winders with no problems. You do have to run your track a little tighter tho

Asphalt or standard drivers will always be better for free wheeling. Big difference on gaz and top speed. Many many people run 11 *asphalt 2.52

Not a racer just a trail rider/racer like most guys right!
Yep tighter and tighter and still ratchets on hard conditions if studded!
I do agree that non extrovert drivers free wheel easier, but when big power is there even on trails, it will ratchet and can hurt your track and drivers! Been there buddy!!

Re: track tension
Here is TD's recommendation regarding track tension for high performance:

- Make sure you have a tight track (must not hang at all when lifted off ground, must be hard to push off the front bogey wheel). It is highly preferable to have a 4 wheel kit upgrade to maintain reliable track tension especially when running high power and or fast speed. Running a loose track will rob lots of top speed (as track baloons from centrifugal forces). Also loose track can cause ratchening of track drivers which will damage them and or the track. Radar running require a VERY tight track as high speed cause expansion.
