Summit 151 to 159 extensions

[ericjohn51]

I have a 05 summit 151 with 8 inch Mountain Machines wheel and axle kit, could I put on a 159 track without putting rail extensions on?

No way, bro.....I think you could get away with a 154 or *maybe* a 155 without extensions, but absolutely no bigger, my $0.02....

You will probally have ajustment issues.Did you have 8 inch wheels to start with? I just did a 136 to 144 conversion and needed at least three to four inches of ajustment,but also started with 6.75 inch wheels and used MMP extensions which require 8 inch. Ended up with a sled not much longer than the 136 and did not have to extend the tunnel.

If you set the skid back 3 or 4 inches, it might work.

No problems from doing this? That changes the geometry from the drivers to the rails, maybe an anti-stab kit would be good insurance? Haven't thought of this idea, my Yammi would be pretty difficult to do with the drop down brackets on the rear mount and tunnel support on the front mount.
