Has anyone found a good kit to make a 2008 apex rtx into a 153?
I am looking to keep the wide ski stance and the 15" track with the rtx suspension.... any help would be great thanks!

no one has extended a short track rtx apex to a 153?

I personally wouldn't stretch a shorty that far. I screws with the geometry too bad and creats a huge "Weak link" with that much leverage.
You'd be much better off in the long run finding a rear skid built to that length.

I agree that's just to much for the short track suspension. I just extended my 07' Attak out to a 151" but i started with a 136". You could maybe get a Nytro Mtx skid or get a Poo rear skid as some others have done like the 144" switchback and then get some rail extensions.

I made a my RTX into a 144" using a 136 skid thats the longest I would go
To go that far you're going to want a different skid. I made my Apex GT into a 153" crossover sled this fall using a Polaris IQ Switchback skid that I picked up on Snowest. Here's a link to my build: http://www.ty4stroke.com/viewtopic.php?t=75346&start=30
