A friend of mine broke his stock rails again on his 146. So he decided to get some Ice Age rails. Hes moving up to a 155. We have the track and skid ready to go. Do you think he has to do some gearing for it to feel right? Or Clutching? Thanks for the input.

He's putting on a 155 5.1
No need to change clutching. I have done this to my Assault. You might consider changing mounting holes, from the Assault hole to the RMK/Dragon hole.
Thinking about making the same track change. Did u make any changes to the tunnel length? Was the suspension set up easy?
No need to stretch the tunnel for a 155".
Suspension was easy, have a 2nd person with you to assist in removing the skid.

No cooling issues. I've never had a cooling issue but I also don't spend a lot of time on the trail.

Are you going with the 5.1 track because it fits better? I'm thinking of doing the same thing.. 146 to 155 swap, and I'm on the fence about what track, 5.1 or CE 2.5. I dont want to drop and roll to fit the 2.5 perfectly but have read the CE will work. I think the assaults 19/42 gearing would be perfect
Where do you ride at?

I live in northern Il. I ride here, northern Midwest and 2 trips planned out west this year for the end of January, and beginning of April, the stock track has done very well for most conditions except deep powder and is still in ok condition after about 1300 miles. I'm thinking that Jan trip is going to suck without a powder track, so if I'm swapping tracks why not 155? Or just buy a new Pro 155 and keep the assault 146 for spring snows, I'm very close to buying a new sled for next season and I don't want to dump tons into the assault which I'm also keeping, dumping the short tracks, not used anymore.
I like riding in the tight/steep/ trees and cornice drops but not much of a jumper, trails and miles not fun for me anymore

I'd keep your 146 comp track for your riding area in Illinois.
Depending where out west you ride is probably get a Polaris 5.1 and call it good in the 155" length.
