I put a 151 extention on my srx. looks great and will climb about anything.
Finally got to try it out last weekend after we got 18" of fresh, the only problem is it's very tippy. works great for cavrving but you have to be really careful or you'll put her on it's side in a hurry. If there is anything I can do to make it more stable i'm all ears. I'll post a couple pics later. Also I need some running board grippers if there are any out there. thanks

Did you narrow the ski stance at all?
Did you install new drop brackets as part of extending your track?
Did you put long travel front shocks on?
Just a couple quick questions for you. Really the only way you could have made your sled more tippy would have been to narrow the ski stance or raise the center of gravity. I know on my viper when i put my much longer works shocks on up front I also had to adjust my rear skid to keep the skid geomety the same as with the stock shocks. This in effect raised my sled center of gravity a couple inches and I really can feel the difference compared to a stock viper. Just extending your track should not make your sled feel more tippy, maybe it was just the snow/base conditions, or maybe you just drank too much the night before LOL.

Yes i put in new drop brackets for the 151". No I didn't drink too much the night before. Wish I would then I'd know what was wrong. Didn't change the ski stance. Definetly the center of gravity is higher so that's probably part of the problem. I also took off the transfer rods and put on a transfer enhancement kit. The skis really come up now, just wondering if that's why it's as tippy as it is. Don't want to take the skid out and put the control rods back on if I don't have to.

try cranking the ski spring preloads. your taller skid is keeping the skis from putting down as much pressure so more of the sleds weight is suported by the 15" wide track in place of the 41" appart skis
