Do those wheels go on inside or outside?

The wheels that I have installed now go on the inside of the rails. I'm putting on another set right in front of my 4th wheel kit and they will go on the outside of the rails

Depending on clearance in going to try and put them on the inside. But will probably end up putting at least one set on the outside.

I am guessing all you guys have the ltx. I don`t see the clearance on the rxt to add wheels

On the ZR 7000 diagram there are 2 possible places to put them. The rtx has the same holes so they should work. Outside on the furthest back holes and inside on the other ones. That's what im hoping to do when I get them. .

I just ordered two kits to put on my XTX, just over 500 miles and the slides are already pretty rough. Does anyone have any pics or locations tips for the XTX?

Here is where I put my second set of wheels. There is 1 hole right by the rubber bumper on the rails. Trying to get ahold of a yamaha marginal snow kit with the small wheels as I think they will work in that spot. Also the very first set of wheels at the front of the rails has holes that look like you can move them an inch or two closer to the front. That would help on mine as that's where my slides are wearing. Only issue is that the bottom hole has the long bolt that goes through the shaft that holds the bottom of the front skid shock. If you could simply get a longer bolt so that you could fasten the mounts on as well you would be all set. So far the wheels seem to be a great investment for not only hyfax life but performance as well

I have one set in, except my 4 wheel kit has 8.4 inch wheels so I don't need to go that close to my back wheels. I put them in the middle. I ordered 4 wheels to go where the limiter straps go. Two on the inside and two on the outside. Then I will take a picture.

The ones where you put on the inside I put on the outside. Just worried about hitting them with the suspension.

If the one set of wheels is on the outside won't the long arm of the torsion spring hit them when the suspension collapses?

Well I thought of that and I compressed the suspension travel as far as it would go and it didn't hit. So I hope I'm good! I was just worried about the inside. Who knows....I guess we will find out. I only paid 20.00$ for them so won't be that big of a deal.

Can't beat that. Did you buy an arctic cat kit for up by the limiter strap or an aftermarket kit?

Aftermarket, got it from wahl bros. I figured that would help there. I'm having wearing issues right in front of the first outside wheel. And in the middle. Well I got the middle covered, hope the wheels in where the straps are will help the front wear. If not I'll try and find some bigger wheels and buy them all. Or get some ice scratchers. I don't really want to do that, but I will if this wheel thing don't work. When I get them on, on Thursday I will put a picture in here so that you can see it.

Ya that would be awesome the front of the rails is the only thing I haven't found anything one. Sounds like a nice kit I'll do some research on that.
