stretching and widening my 2003 F7

[buckshot14]

So I'm thinking of stretching and widening the track on my 7. Just something to do this summer. Does anybody have any suggestions on track length?

Don't waste your time. Just buy an m7 and get it over with. You will have more work and money into that than just buying a whole new sled

Yea, i wouldnt bother unless your trying to get rid of money, and in that case ill give you my address

I extended my 05 F7 to a 136 x 2" and it was cool but trenched real bad, and thats just a 136. Ive talked to guys who did the 151 and they said it was just as bad.


BUT, if you do it be sure to post pics! It would be interesting to see what you come up with.

Been there, done that. You'll be money way ahead buying into an actual mountain sled. Can't fix the 13.5 wide track.

Like previously stated, unless you're just looking to blow money, do not put a longtrack on a firecat. Bad idea. Lots of work and you don't get much for it. And you can't even buy a paddle track for one, unless you find someone with one already, otherwise you have to take a perfectly good 15" wide track and cut it down to fit. I see you want to "widen" your sled. I don't even know if a tunnel compatible with 15" wide tracks will mount to the bulkhead of a 2003 F7. Sounds like you could spend lots of money and get yourself in really deep and get no return for your work. Buy an M7 or a Crossfire

After some further investigation I think I will just purchase a rolling chassis and drop my motor in as the entire rear end of the F7 is pretty well scrap
