My Trailfire needs a new track and I know where I can get one for free, but I was thinking about maybe just spending a little more and getting an all-rubber track for it.
From what I understand you have to move the mounting holes for the rear suspension 1" foreward to make the track work.
Do you think it would be worthwhile to upgrade to the rubber track or should I just get that cleated one and run it like that for now?
Thanks.

a 121" rubber track will fit if you move the suspension back about 1". I think the drivers are the same pitch, but I am not 100% sure.

the drives are not the same pitch if i remember right but i believe skidoo sprokets will work for a 121. we put an indy 400 suspention in owr sportfire and we had to file out them to make them fit on the deere drive shaft.
and yes it is 100% worth it to get the all rubber track if you dont mind paying for it.
also is the all ruber track you plan on getting for it a deere track.
i will get you all the info tomorow. i also think you will need to switch the sprockets just to switch to an all rubber deere track too so ill let you know.

ok, if your using the kimpex replacement part you will need to switch sprokets and you should be able to get it in without moving the bolt holes as long as you loosen it right off.
for all the info you need go to www.jdsleds.com, join and do a search, dont make a new thread, there should be many already. this place has all the info you should ever need. there are many people on here that built, owned, raced, owned deelers, ect. when deeres were new here.
good luck.
