Well she's done. I used slp rail and tunnle extentions, I think it came out really nice. But I have a few questions. Has anybody had slp extentions break? I like to ride pretty hard, but it's not like I beat it. The stock extra 10 takes most of what I throw at it, but I'm wondering, will I have to slow down now? I don't want to break the extentions. Also, after we got the suspention back in, the track was tight, not very, but it was right around where I would run it with my extroverts, and it was loosend as far as it would go. Was gona leave it like that, but then the track was hitting the back of the rail extentions, it was making a lot of noise, and I'm sure if I would run it like that I would lose all the clips on my track, so I tightend up my track some more to push the axle back far enough so the track is not hitting the rails anymore, but, now it's quite tight, only about 1/2"-3/4" slack when hanging from the stand. Should I grind off maybe 1/4" off the back of the extentions so I can run it looser? Right now it only has about 3/16" clearance from the back of the extention to the track. What do you think I should do? I'll some pics pics of it soon.

did you get a new track or one that hasn't been used in a while. cause they do stretch so it may be alright.

It's not a new track, but it is used, it's been sitting in the shed for about half a year, or more. I was hopeing it's gona stretch some, we'll see I guess after I ride it some.

BTW, it's snowing like the dickens here right now. Can't see 100ft in ftont of you.

Sounds like you have a 133.5" track that was stock on any factory "long track" sled untill 1998 with the RMKs.
