2015 RTX LE- Hurricane Turbo
Question cause I can't seem to figure it out! So I have a 2015 rtx le.. The front shock shaft is hitting the cogs that the wheels ride in the inside - shaft does not appear to be bent and its the Rr shaft. It's rubbing on the spacers and taking the tops off those inside tabs the wheels ride in between. Anyone have this issue?

The only thing I can think of is I have 8" 4th wheel kit (got sold wrong kit and just used it) but it's been on for 3000 miles and I'm just noticing the track damage.. Anyone have any ideas or experience this?
 
The RTX uses the smaller rear wheels I think you solved your problem.
 
You removed the long bolt and made sure the holes in rails it goes through are not egged out? Pretty common issue and reason I dont like that long bolt.
 
I have the same sled. I run the Barn of Parts axle and eight inch wheels. Im not seeing any trouble. The tri hub idea seemed cheap. when i removed at 2100 miles the bearings were all flat spotted.

OK ya I still have the trihub but not the original I have the ones that have removable bearings and the "Yamaha" forth wheel kit so just 2 wheels on the outside

You sure it’s hitting there then? Take a pic. I have had clips come off track and cause that also.
 
Did the shock flip down when you had it apart
