ok i have done a lot of reading, and it seems like you read one post that says you can go with the 1.175 gold diggers, then the next one you read says you can only go 1.075 gold diggers. i have a 1" hacksaw track, looking into getting some new studs. the ones i got simply don't cut it. i cannot hook up if my life depended on it, unless its real good hard pack. i have tunnel protectors and front heat exchanger protectors. i got to know by monday, because my dad's friend can order me some

thanks in advance
 

I went with 1.075's and wish I'd gone with the 1.175's on my SRX,it's got a 1" camoplast carve track but just doesn't have the bite on glare ice or hard crusty snow I wish it did.
 
i think I'm gunna go with the 1.175's. seems to me that a lot of people are leaning towards them now then they were during the older posts. ill keep everyone posted
 
I went with th 1.075 ones with a 1 inch Kimpex track.My front exchanger and under tunnel started to be chewed up with the original track and studs when I bought this sled.You may have to keep the track guitar string tight to avoid this then,but will lose some speed with the tighter track tension.

x2 on this ..same for me
 
I also run the 1.175 gold diggers on a 1" predator track, very pleased. We run mostly hard packed trails, with control rods set right, really transfers well, great hook up.
 
Almost forgot to double the previous posts recommendation, keep the track on the tight side. Let us know how it works for you.
 
I have the exact set up you are going to get. 1" hacksaw 144 gold diggers 1.175. Tunnel protectors and exchanger protectors. Run the track on the tight side. I haven't had any problems. My sled still breaks loose off the line with 144 especially on lake runs on the ice. But on hard pack you better hold on.
