I believe lots of people have done it. Do a search and you should find enough info to keep you busy.

I stretched out to 136" with a tracksusa kit. Excellent kit. The rail extensions are very nice, and the tunnel extension is the best that I have seen. It literally looks factory if you take your time and put it on correctly - ZERO gaps.
I'm not sold on the "tip-up" in the 136" length. I wanted all my track on the ground the whole time for maximum traction on the trail, and I didn't want to promote more wheelies by giving the sled a "tip-up" to roll backwards onto. Never driven a nytro with a tip-up rail extension tho, just a theory of mine.
Overall I was very happy with the extra length, a lot more traction and much better off-trail. Ditching the Ripsaw track probably helped the most with the off-trail part.
here are a few pictures I have,

Revster here on the forum has one he did a great job with it and his sled looks sweet. He has a thread in the sled garage forum I think.

You will not beat the quality of the OFT, and the 136" is perfect..

I thought this thread was going to be about a Nytro with a decent gauge pod and a full size gas tank.
As for stretching it, it you're going to do it, might as well go to 144".

The Nytro is great as a 136" and the OFT boys put together an excellent kit, I'd highly recommend it. They also have 144" if you decide to go that length.
The one thing I'd suggest is adding a set of boggy wheels near the rear. There is a hole in your rails already, you just need the mounts and wheels.

Don't waste your time with a 136 just put on a 144" extension. I believe OFT is the only way to go. Have over 2500 miles on mine with zero issues. Customer service is out of this world. OFT has never let me down.
