Thanks for all of the feedback, I appreciate it. I'm bringing the sled to my Yamaha buddy this week. This guy is good. He has worked on my other toys. So I had a chance to go through the sled with a fine tooth comb. Upon inspection of the track and suspension I noticed a circular hairline crack around the bearing of the right rear guide wheel. Is this a common part? Also the track, which is not cleated or spiked is showing some signs of wear, mostly weather checked, four outside rubber paddles are also broken off. I think for safety sakes I will replace both. I don't want to be taken to the bank( knowing OEM tracks are around five bills uninstalled) but I do want a reliable machine. I have two trips planned this winter, one up to Three Lakes WI, and the other to Jordan Lake outside Portage. I think this track measures 121"x 15". Is Camoplast the way to go? Thanks

Camoplast is the way to go I have one on mine and it is a big difference compared to the factory one . And they are also a little lighter then stock , but that will depend on which one you get.

Ebay is the place to find new or good used tracks with ~3/4"-1" lugs very reasonable since many have taken them off to upgrade to taller or longer tracks !
