I'm 69 years old, the only trick I use is be patient when installing them onto the hub I get the holes aligned then play with the floor jack until I can slide them on. The rest is pretty arn easy you young whipper snapper!
@@chrishill1286 Hats off to you good sir. Plus I haven't been called young in a while either, so thanks for that ;). The job is not too bad, but feels like there should be an easier way. I have an idea to try next time.
Put them on my 22 General XP4 not that hard, simple brackets a few bolts and spacers, adjustments are easy? BUT now I fear I have cursed NW Montana, no SNOW! Yet that is. The 4 inches or so we got a few week ago I ran them around the field and rechecked torque and adjustments.
Yes, those back tracks are a real pain, but I think I found a better way to install them. I'll try that next time. I am happy with the tracks, they make that machine a beast, especially in the early spring when neither a skidoo or vehicle would be able to get me in, that machine makes it. The gas mileage with the tracks on is bad. I'm always surprised how quickly the level drops. If I'm remembering right it's about an 1/8th of a tank for roughly 10 km.
That's a LOT of work!
I always forget how much of a pain it is. I guess that's a good thing.

Nice. Tracks are great, and not too bad to swap. Plus, it's only twice a year anyway.
Sure looks like those rear ones are stubborn. 😅
Still happy with them? I also have a 570 and have been debating on tracks. How bads the gas mileage?

@@TheLandAndLegacy take those brackets off the track and mount the brackets to the machine first simple i have done it 13 times.
@@BruceLizer Thanks, that is exactly what I was planing to try next time. Glad to hear it work better. Cheers.
