You guys ever notice how close the top of the back shock mount runs on your track...When there's no weight on the sled it touches the track...Notice it has been rubbing on the track been doing it for a while I would suspect..
Could you buy alittle bigger wheels for it....or is this something ya just have to live with..lol Thanks in advance..

On the plus side I welded my W-Arm up...fixed my shock, adjusted straps, replaced bearings and slides and she's all ready to ride again.. :letitsnow
 
Thank you ...obviously there's a problem with resistance with the stock wheels that's what I thought...

The only concern is that the studs would ride closer to the skid correct and as of now the studs are close to there limit

check your bushings in the upper arm, this allows this gap to close, also, if you have long travel shocks from xt or rx1, the bushings are shot in those, also, check bearings in wheels and or wheels being worn down, all this adds up to make a tight gap even closer
 
hey

Yeah I noticed alot of the bushings were worn out...wheels and wheel bearings were all good...Can you buy new bushings aftermarker or do you have to buy them from the dealer?? Those bushings would add up fast if I had to replace them all eh..$$$
