Snow trackers on 146” Xtx

[Swampfox]

Have a couple questions for people that may have some experience here. I ended up with a pair of aggressive snow trackers on the advice from the US dealer. He told me to set them up with very little to no ski pressure. My question is does that apply to an uncoupled Xtx? I’m afraid my skis will never be on the ground, and when they come back down I better have them straight. Mostly ride in northern Wisconsin or the UP. What did anyone else find with a sled like this? I have Igrips in the lugs. No stuffing on this sled. This is my first experience with this type of sled setup and these carbides. Normally run triple points but again they are out of stock. Thanks for any input.

My experience with aggressive snowtrackers and 144 skid...set the front shocks with no load on the springs. Go for a ride and see what it does. If you need more spring pressure on your front shocks, add couple turns at a time till you find where it handles best. Once you find that sweet spot it will be just point and shoot. It'll rail right through the apex of the curve.

Just so I’m understanding correctly. You didnt mess with your limiter strap or front skid shock? Just the ski shocks.

I had let my limiters out all the way and lowered front shock on rear skid, only cause I wanted lower centre of gravity for handling.

I set them up on my 129
-toe on skis is set to 0
-Straps all the way out front skid
-front skid shock tight (mine end up being 4 threads from stock.
-drive it and adjust it how you prefer it than lock down front skid shock
this is how they told me to set up and they work really well IMO

I run Aggressive SnowTrackers on my Pilot single keel 5.7 Race skis and make no changes other than 0 toe. You can run heavy ski pressure if you like because they steer quite easily anyway, at least until the corrector wears down, then it gets hard, but if the corrector is good it will steer easy.

Set the suspension as a suspension so it rides good with the trackers, you don't have to worry about loosing ride to get it to steer properly like normal carbide/ski setups anymore.
