My opinion on diffrent carbides and tuner skis

[Millinocket Rocket]

Kviper, what do you have your suspension settings at? The guy I bought my sled from had the limiter straps sucked all the way up, and the mono shock set two notches softer than the middle setting, and transfer was in the middle. He did all this to try to eliminate darting. I set the straps in the middle holes and stiffened the mono up to one notch softer than the middle, and left transfer in the middle, and it handles like a dream. Is this close to stock settings? I had Kimpex Arrows on my Viper, basically same thing as the Tuners and it still darted. You also said in another thread to set the toe to zero with Trackers? I didn't see that in my instructions.

I changed nothing for tracking as far as suspendtion set up. I have my sled set up for hole shot, limiter one hole up from stock (I think they come with the limiter all the way out), max transfer, softest setting on the dial. on the aggressive's there is a very small sticker on the package with set up instruction's and I think the instruction's may only be on the 11 and newer sled's.
With the Tracker's you should not notice any change in tracking based on suspendtion set up.
So I take it you have the Tracker's on, made the changes and it track's and handles excellent? You should be able to set the suspendtion for the ride/transfer/flat cornering you want and let the Tracker's deal with tracking.

Ya exactly, I might be able to steal a little more transfer on the rod and let the straps out another notch for more hookup, and still handle and corner good. The '11's have 5 sets of holes in the straps, and I'm in the middle right now...

That's the thing, you can use your suspendtion for what it was ment for not tracking control that is only a partial bandaid any way. You can do what ever you want with setting's and it will still track straight.

That's why I post about them so much. They really put a whole new pleasure back in to snowmobiling. Always glad to help!

Pilots are OK too but not as good in powder

They won't float! By the looks of it you can't get snotrackers for the mountain ski.

I think the tunner ski was designed fo the Nytro!

I have snowtrackers on my mountain skis. I will be taking them off when I trade this year and I'll put them up for sale here. They will need new carbides,

but the wings are still perfect.

The semiagressive were always available for the mountain ski's? And as I stated in an earlier post the guy's that had the mountain ski's with Tracker's thought they were the chit. I think the bolt pattern is the same so I don't know why they would not work. [\kviper]

I have the Aggressive SnowTrackers on my Attak with mountian skis. The bolt pattern is the same. One of the studs of the carbide just barely stick thru enough to bolt them on as the mountian skis have a deeper keel.
Other than that there are no issues . Have just over 5000 miles with this setup.

Sounds like you guy's are sold on Trackers. Scott Bergstrom made me a set of 3/8" ski savers for Tuners. The ski savers give the Tuners the bigger keel mentioned in this thread, and help to minimize pushing in corners on soft trail snow. I have 8" Bergstrom Triples on the inside with hard bars on the out side, ski's are also shimmed. No darting and they corner very well in everything except deep powder. The Tuners are not good at all in the deep stuff.
