I am thinking about stretching out an apex GT to a 162 ish length. Anyone here done this or know someone who has? Any tips on what to go with for parts. Just looking to try to get it right from the start. Thanks in advance.
 

pull the trigger on a new suspension... i just did a 144" and on stock rails i would not go much longer.. maybe151 tops... suspension geometry changes in the 162"... and of couse new tunnel extension...
 
Yes I tend to agree... Unless you are into really deep mountain powder I wuld tend to keep it at around 140- 144 with 1 3/4 paddle assuming you are doing this because you do a good bit of riding off trail ....If u don't need the big paddle try 1 1/4 ....my last sled had 144 I found it great ..Get the tipped up rail so when trail riding there is less track on the snow..good luck
 
I stretched out my '06 Apex gt to a mtx 162 and lost 60+ lbs on the way. It works great it is alot of work but if your like me stuck in minnesota and all your trail riding buddies sell there sleds only thing left to do is go west with a trailer.
