I have an 40 KK, 16" wide track. Guys are saying that drop brackets work great. I can't tell if sledjunkies drop brackets work on a 16", I don't see how they can. Some one please help!!!
Thanks

if you have a 16 wide you have drop brackets already. the track will not clear the top of the rear skid with out them. the larger top wheels get the track up and over the brackets.

I agree with 76FOMOCO. But to answer your question, Sledjunkys do work. I have them on mine with a 16 wide.

I have 16" tracks on KK's without drop brackets or larger top wheels. Did'nt do the edges of the track much good though! SJ's work good on a 16" wide. There are also a couple of rivets that need a little grinding.

I am all alone on this one but I think drop brackets suck!
On my 16 wide i went to 7 inch wheels on the top arm, worked great!

I've really loved my Sledjunky's brackets. Being a bigger dude it really helps get your tunnel out the snow better for boondocking and climbing.

Just make sure you also put together an anti-stab kit when you move to brackets and extrovert drivers. I lost my track mid-season last year.... not a fun replacement when it can be prevented by a $25 part.

Not a great pic, but you get the idea. These are the SJ's drop brackets.

When you go to put the SJ drop brackets on, the only hard part is getting the idlers off the cross tube. I made my own puller for them...their on there tight!

Thanks guys.
Did anyone have to move the front axle mounting location?? It was suggested to me that with the lift, the front will not lift nearly as much in the powder. I have another set of holes it the tunnel to move the axle down and back about an inch. What do ya think??
