where to get 2.5" track for Apex?
- Thread starter Rider1958
- Start date
Tracks USA. Will be around a grand. If you dont have a drop and roll I think you have to clip the outside nub off the paddle on each side other than that it will clear. I put a 174 2 1/2 on my stock tunnel Apex a few years back and it was the best thing I ever did! The maveric SUCKS!
Thanks for the info!
I called Tracks USA, the part# 9176 (I think that's the single ply one) was quoted as $750, and $35 shipping. Have not ordered yet, I have to work a bunch more overtime to pay for it.
I, um, haven't even ridden the sled yet.
Thanks for the tip on trimming to clear, better to know ahead of time.
What is required to put a 174 on? Rail extensions? Ice Age rails?

I bought the rails and extensions from tracks USA. There was only 2 things I didnt like. First being that I was unable to find full length Hyfax (although I didnt search real hard cause like always it was a last minute thing) so the last bit was a scab piece. It never gave me a problem just wasnt ideal. Second was that the track was nearly even with the back bumper so it would suck the flap, and with the new found traction it would actually wheelie and in some cases would try and come clear over because the bumper would touch before the nose was beyond vertical. Other than that it was to this day the best thing I did to the sled. You will be happy with the 163, but its always cool to say "yeah Ive got a 174" 
I put one on my Apex last year after the stock track came appart on me, I didnt have to trim anything to get it to fit, and mine doesnt rub anywhere that I have noticed.

My MTX has a 162x15x2.5" CE and it fit with no trimming and fit great!
I went 16 wide on mine, couldnt get over the smaller track works better thing, I have read lots that that is the case though, but I just couldnt do it.

You boosted? If not, how do you like the track?
Boosted, not yet, working on the old lady for that one. The track hooks up a lot better, the stocker wanted to dig a lot more before it would get up on the snow, this one doesnt dig anywhere as much and stays on the snow when you slow down. Not even that the stocker was 200 more than the extreme!
162x15 wide on my apex. wouldnt ever go back to a 16 wide. The handling is alot better with the 15 vs the 16.
Not questioning the difference at all, I just dont have problems pulling the 16 over, now hop on a doo, oh my god are those hard!!
I have 3 rides on my 162 by 15 camo extreme and am putting a 174 on now. I will be lOoking to sell it. It is the old style track with the stiffer paddles. Seriously just put it on. Pm me if interested. $750

No boost yet for me. I'd love an MCX 240 pump gas turbo kit, but no budget for it yet. The CE track is great, but honestly for me not much different than 16"
I love the CE track tho, for sure!
