Thanks for those installation instructions Equillibrium. I've had my secondary apart to clean it before (and yes I did replace the circlip ... thanks to this Forum), so I feel fairly confident that I can handle the clutch kit install. Hearing what's involve first-hand always helps though ... so thanks again for that.
Not to hyjack this thread or anything, but finally got some snow around here so of course I had to get out and play in it with the new track and skid. Noticed the improved flotation right away, but also I experienced what I think may have been ratcheting ... OR it could be that I do not have the chain tensioned properly. Either way, I'd appreciate a little help.
I've never experienced track ratcheting on any sled before, so I can only imagine what it feels like. But in describing what I experienced, I will say that I could feel what seems like slipping, but only with a sudden burst of power (or blip of the throttle). It never happened from a start or a steady increase in throttle ... only when getting on the throttle ... even when I was already moving at a good pace.
I am running the track fairly tight. I could try to tighten the track some more, but I'm wondering if I should start with an adjustment to my chain. I did follow the chain tensioning guidelines when putting everything back together, but maybe I didn't get it tight enough? what do you guys think? where should I start?
Here's a shot of my sled as it sits now.
