switching to snowtrackers ?

[shawnj]

Apex stock skis, I shimmed them and currently running slim jims. If I want to go to snowtrackers do I have to removed the shims I made. Also which set of snowtrackers is best.

 

[Banks93]

Yes, take the shims out.

 

[shawnj]

Ok thanks. Hope I don't wreck the rubber as I used an adhesive.

I run aggresives on mine , i tried them with the shims and they were wacko for sure , x2 on the removal , they make yammies run true for sure

Semi aggressive on mine and it rails like a dream noooo darting at all and handles very very well I am in love.

Also set toe to 0.

One of the mechanics at local yami dealer said they were very aggresive, that it takes a lot to turn/steer them in terms of "effort", but they do steer well and no darting. He suggested i try someones sled with them, I dont know anyone though and there is no open trails here anyways. Do you all that have them find they required much more effort to steer. I dont have any darting with woodies dually, or the slim jims, so not sure if i should stick with what I have or not yet. Thanks for all your input.

they actually made my yammie lighter to steer , dont know how but they do

There is little to no increase in steering effort. The semi aggressive will steer even easier and will still probably bight better than any other bar out there.

 

[shawnj]

Well, so far no one has really confirmed the xtra steering effort. I wonder, would the semi aggresive be fine for my liking then?? Need to drill a hole too I think?? I've never adjusted the "toe" this is done with the tie rods??

 

[kviper]

In my opinion if you are not a real aggressive rider you would be ok with semi's. I have semi aggressive's on my Phazer's and they bite very good.
I usually just adjust the tie rod end at the spindle because they are easy to get to and a little on one side and you are good to go. Just make sure you have plenty threads left in side the tie rod.

Snowtrackers have made my Attak very easy to steer.
Yes. You will need to drill a hole. Instructions that come with the Snowtrackers are clear as to where and how big of a hole you need to drill.

 

[jasonboyer]

If you ride it fast the aggresive trackers are very easy to turn. Even at slower speeds. I was going to sell my Apex before trying the Snowtrackers. Now I am keeping it.
