Hey guys, I'm sorry, i'm sure its been discussed time and time again. But I found a good deal on a 2" camoplast, not sure of the model of track, but the pitch is correct. In your guys' opinion, am i better off cutting the track down to a 1.75", as compared to grinding on the heat-exchanger protectors? Is there any other major problems with going to a 2" track? Thanks alot!

even if you cut it down to a 1.75 you will have to grind the protectors off.

Ok cool, sorry, just making sure we are on the same page, so I will need to remove the tunnel protectors, and the heat-X protector?
 
Yes all the protectors must come off. A 2" track will require different drivers. There is minimal clearance to the heat exchanger even with a 1.75" track.
 
Soo to go to a 2" I am looking at removing all protectors, changing the drivers to a smaller driver for clearance, and possibly changing the gearing because of the driver change? Only reason I am considering 2" is because of a good deal i found. Now, if I waited for a 1.75" I would be able to get away with just removing all of the protectors, and leaving the stock drivers alone? Saw a few vids on youtube of guys trimming a track down, looks pretty slick, might be my best option, as far as $$ goes.
 
There is a member on here that has a 2" track and the stock drivers.He said it's tight but clears
 
Also if you trim the 2" to 1.75" the lugs will be stiffer than a 1.75". If you aren't worried about trimming it down I say go for it!
 
2 inch track

I put a 2 inch track on my 2009 xtx ( the dealer put it in ) changed drivers, thats it. all protectors are in ( i looked ), 2900km no problems that I know of.
 
I bought my 1.75 Backcountry for $687 from Tracks Canada. The old ripsaw was sold for $400 on kijiji. So my track change only cost $287 for the Backcountry which is an unreal track.
 
Thats a pretty sweet deal Sask. I'm looking at $400 for a slightly used Camoplast Challenger. If i can sell my ripsaw for anywhere close to that i'll be laughing!! Anybody have any experience on the particulars to what drivers i would need?
 
2" will fit, i just put an older challenger on mine. Just whack them protectors off. I geared mine down to a 18 T top gear. I just beat an 08 summit 800 146X2.25 when we ran em up to around 70..
 
I had a 2" challenger on and it clears everything just fine if you get the notched challenger. Its only available as a 121 or 136, but you could notch any 2" to fit.

Remove the tunnel protectors, or just cut the track.
 
I've read about changing the drivers to a 9-tooth Ski-doo driver, but haven't found any accurate part numbers, the original numbers from what i read are 504152503. But, then i also read that that part is not stocked any more, for $49.00 that'd be a nice way to go. Anybody have any experience with this lately? i want to stay with the 9-tooth but with extroverts. Lol, just suck it up and order Avids?
