How to fix the racheting on the 3.5 pitch

[Teth-Air]

Most failures of this mod I have heard about is the outer wheels falling off due to lack of thread locker. I suppose you used the good stuff?

The kit I got from avid does not even have outside wheels. Is this going to be a problem

 

[motocrazy2006]

The outside wheels are not a big thing. It's just the brand of anti stab.

Did you have to fully clip your track in order to run this setup, I just bought my self a khaos 850 155 with the series 8 track and I have been getting major ratcheting issues no matter how tight, the second the skis lift it ratchets, I've been thing about doing this set up but I want ro know more information before I start cutting rails and that

400 miles on mine and I never clipped the rest of the track. I haven’t had any issues.

This is with a set of extroverts and anti stab?

I changed to extorovers and did anti stab. And cut the rails on my khaos. My advice do not do this i already punched a rail though the track window recked one track and now my second new track it trying to do the same thing and is pulling track clips. My advice is do not cut trails just change drivers and run a 3in or 2.6 track. The 2.75 is not that great anyway and it over heats easily and is not to durable save your Money and put it towards a new track

My dealer has offered me a series 6 track and drive shaft for free under warranty so sounds like I'll take the offer, thanks

 

[Matthew runge]

That is what I would do now after I found out the hard way

Fixing the ratcheting on a snowmobile with a 3.5 pitch typically involves addressing issues with the track or the drive system. Here are some steps you can take:

1. Inspect the Track: Check the track for any damage, worn-out components, or debris that might be causing the ratcheting. Look for missing or damaged track clips, torn lugs, or worn-out track belts.
2. Tension Adjustment: Adjust the tension of the track to ensure it's properly aligned and tensioned. Consult your snowmobile's manual for specific instructions on how to adjust the track tension.
3. Drive System Inspection: Inspect the drive system components, including the drive belt, drive sprockets, and chain tensioner. Look for signs of wear, damage, or misalignment that could be causing the ratcheting.

Hey! I didn’t need to clip my track for my setup fully. Check your track tension and alignment first, as small adjustments can help reduce ratcheting. If you cut rails, click on guides specific to your model for tips. Good luck with your Khaos 850! Let me know if you have more questions!

I switched to 3in series seven with with standard drivers and added Ani stab roller wheels but did not cut rail tips and fully clipped the track and I can not be happier almost zero hifax wear and I have never had a track run this free and smooth. Just keep your it nice and tight I am
Not kidding I gain track speed and the track will actually coast and u better set the parking brake when parked down hill or the sled will be gone. Best mod ever and the track life will last really good
