I've got the rear skid out right now (had the W arm welded up) replace bearings etc... I notice my sliders are worn sort of wavy, but they've been on for a few years now and aren't wearing fast. So will the uneven wearing have much effect on performance? I know if I put new ones they'll just do the same thing. My track is always as loose as possible without ratcheting. 3/4" track w/96 1.250 chisels in the centre. Also wondering if I should bother throwing 48 more on the outside? Will the added stress on the track be worth the gain in traction? I mostly just play on the lake these days.

Thanks. I appreciate all advice, information and lectures.
 
my hyfax were uneven and wavy also on my SRX.Now I put on new graphite hyfax,same as the last ones...removed second wheel from the front of skid both sides..installed ice scratchers.Can you beliece mt hyfax have not worn down even a mm in 3 weeks,and I run her hard..I am happy..hyfax staright thru out and no waves.I also put small marginal wheels up on the bend of ther rails.I may never have to change hyfax again..seriously!!!!
 
I drill 3/16 lube holes in ALL of my sleds. Seems to increase life and balance out the wear. I also always re-use my sliders and spin them around and basicaly use them twice...
