Hey could someone tell me the fastest way to replace the hyfax on my xlt? I read an article in a magazine a while back and they said to pull them out the windows on the track. Does this sound good or should I loosen the track and move it out of the way? Also has anyone tried that hyperfax material? Is it worth the extra cost?

I just changed my hyfax and the easiest way is through the track windows. Just raise the back end, remove the screw and tap them out. The new ones will just slide right on. Easier with 2 people so you know when the hole is lined up for the screw.

Loosen the rear axle bolts. Loosen the track. Take out the hyfax bolt. Drive the hyfax out the window. Lubricate rail. Insert new hyfax. I put a small dia. allen wrench in hyfax bolt hole and as I tap in the hyfax the allen wrench will drop when the hole lines up. Bolt it back in. Tighten track. Align track and adjust tension. Loose is fast. Retighten axle bolts. 15 min per side with beer. 10 minutes per side without. But things go better with lubrication. Never tried hyperfax, but you can buy a lot of standard hyfax with $75.

hyfax is what the rear suspension uses to reduce wear on the the rails. combined with idler wheels the hyfax is helpful in getting power to the ground quicker.
