Lug Height

[canoehead]

Bought a good used 2" Challenger track for a swap out of the 1.25" Ripsaw. It is factory notched for the protectors. I was going to cut it down to resemble the 1.75 BC. When I measured the lugs in actuality they are 1.75 from the track face and 2" from the underside. What are you guys finding for the measurements on these types. I'm considering just throwing it on and if need be trim it after install if I don't like the height. Couldn't pass it up for $75.00

My Cat Powder claw track was supposed to be a 2.25" track. It was a new take off track with the sticker still on the track. Only way I got 2.25" was measuring from inside the track. On top of the track I get 2". I wish it would have been one of the Hill Climb racers track, I think they are a stiffer design then what I got.

The part number fiches out to Arctic Cat 144"x 15"x 2" 2.52 pitch Camoplast Challenger. So I guess they measure over all track height as lug height. I can only guess that a 1.75 BC in actuality is a 1.5" lug

No I think if you order a track form any catalogue that is camoplast it will be the true measurement but the factory installed tracks seem to be measured differently. We got 2 PC takeoff tracks and they both measured 2".
