Nytro Rtx, Relocate skid

[Vipermtx162]

Nytro Rtx 2009 mcx 270
oft 136" with 1,75" track.
8" big wheel

No trail riding, only deep snow dont looking after a allround machine,
But dont wanna spend the money on a new skid.

So two options to improve the angle of approach and to get more track to the ground:

Relocate skid 4.2" + keep the 136 extension = 146 (PEAK 2.5 track)
Relocate skid 3.7" + 144 extension = 153 (challenger extreme)

Wonder if someone has any experience of this ?=)

Did this to a Apex and it worked great with the 144", but with the nytro there is more weight over the skis then a apex. I feel that it would plow with the front end with a stock motor.

Be carful, moving suspension back puts more weight on front suspension. That will make it lay over hard.

Okey !! but if you look at the mtx, it seems like you can setback the skid a bit on the rtx

Here is the difference between rtx and mtx skid installation locations.

Thank you !!! Looks like about 3.5" ! I have to try this, that would gain about 7" track! + 8" wheels end up with 8.5" extra track lenght.
Not much more to get that 146" !
