Any 1.25 track will work, you will have to remove the front heat exchanger protectors or notch the track. You won't be able to run studs, just not enough room. I went with the one inch track, works good and can run 1.075, 1.080 and 1.175 studs.

not really interested in running studs might look into it later and what kind of a job is removing the protectors or nnotching the track?

i would think removing the protectors would be easier, but then again there is a reason they're called protectors, notching the track you would have to notch every lug all the way around on both places the protectors are, time consuming

 

[xviperx7]

yea i will probably just take off the protectors

I took the protectors off my SRX 14,000 kms ago to install a 1.25 ripsaw. No issues.

 

[xviperx7]

how big of a job is that? as far as tools and time?

 

[staggs65]

not sure how they're held in (rivets maybe) but when you have your drive assembly out to change the track should be easy access

I took the protectors off my SRX 14,000 kms ago to install a 1.25 ripsaw. No issues.

^^ me too..just rode up North 4ft+ of snow, ripsaw worked awesome. When I did drive bearings I pulled tunnel protectors off. Just grind the 1st few rivet heads off underneath, the ones below the tank, and/or remove seat and drill the remaining ones off....or keep on grinding. The rivets are aluminum so no big dealo..
