what studs???

[JeepJimmy]

99 vmax 700 deluxe. stock track. want to add studs. basic trail riding.. what do you recommend...?

I think Woody's Megabites are the best all around stud. 120-144 would be a good amount. Be sure to match the studs to a good set of aggressive carbides to get the most out of the deal.

I second that about the Megabites...

any idea on what length?

If stock track has about 3/4" for lugs,then 1 to 1.075" should be good. I put the 1.075" with my 1" lug track on the SRX,so maybe 1" should be good.You do not want to go beyond 3/8" past the lugs ..otherwise you could bend them eventually.Hope this helps.

i think its an orig. 1" track if thats possible? anyway thats what i measure. thank you for the advice. i have never added studs before since my SRX came with them.

Actually for a 3/4" track youre going to want to go with a .875" stud. Remember, the entire length of the stud is not what is used to account for the length. From the tip to the shoulder.
.875 megabites on a .725 Durasport will give you about .400" of penetration. Almost too much.

If you have a 1" lug height, you probably want to run the 1.075" studs. This will give you right around 3/8" of penetration. You could go more aggressive and get the 1.175" but this will be more prone to tear outs and stud bending. I would also recommend you use 120 studs in the track using a 3-2-3-2 pattern. We sell the woody's megabite studs for $1.15/stud and the backers for $0.40/backer. These are a great overall stud without going into the high costs of the gold diggers. If you plan on running 120 studs, we can get you the megabites and backers for $185 plus shipping. The studs are in stock and go out the same day if the order is placed in the morning.

If you find out the track is a .920" lug, I would recommend running the 1.075" and nothing higher. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks
