X3 and rail trimming

[oscar]

Just installed a 162 X3 on my 13 pro. I cut the rails down 1'' and installed a anti-stab kit. Was curious if 1'' was enough or if I need to do more? Looks like plenty of clearance for the drivers, just curious for the rails stabbing the track. Thanks

you have an anti stab, if you properly rounded the rails its pretty much impossible to stab the track unless you run like 8" of sag or leave pointy rail tips poking past the anti stab. but right around 1" is proper cut amount.

Set a block of wood under the front of the skid and cycle it to check for proper clearance

Ok. Not sure why now all of a sudden I was paranoid about stabbing the track especially with the anti stab kit. Thanks

If you don't round the rails and hyfax like wheel house says, then yes you can damage the track.

Well I ended up not trimming enough off the rails when the suspension was compressed. I took the rails back out and trimmed them up and rounded off the edges nicely. Now I have enough room. Thanks for the advice guys.
