Would 1.325 studs work in my 1.25 ripsaw track? I don't what the recommended stud length is. Thanks

Yup...works good. Thats what i run in my sled.....96... 1.375'' studs down the middle belt.

Meant to say 1.325''

anybody else???

I don't like the penetration that the recommended hieght gives you. They will be more durable at that length though. I have a 1.25 Ripsaw and I put Woodys 1.450 with tall nuts and they have the max penetration allowed with the snow cross tool. which I believe is 3/8 inch. Look at a ruler, 3/8" ain't all that much. I have bent about 8 but I have 3,000 miles on it.

any other imput?

Just my past experience but anytime i go studs longer that what the manufacture allows...i end up bending a bunch or tearing them out of the track. I ride lots of groomed trails that have plenty of rocks under them...possible cause??

Have 1.325 goldiggers with double backers ,I'm shur the double backers saved me a few rip outs this year as some got loose.I have 96 & it works pretty good.Have a few bent ones too.Thats over 2000 miles

I have a factory per drilled ripsaw, 1325 studs work ok but I would have to agree with JeffG you need slightly longer studs. Its very noticable in corners when the track gets up on edge and starts to slide very easy. Double Backer and tall nuts are a must , I would not stud the outside edges all they do is tear holes in the track. Every year I replace 6~8 broken studs useing the standard nuts so I am installing the new studs with tall nuts , after 15~20 broken studs I still have zero track damage. I am also considering changing to studboy studs or one of the other big brands , I am not 100% happy with woodys they seam to bend very easy. maybe its my aggresive riding in poor snow but it just seam to bend/break way more studs then the guys I ride with.

I have about 90 1.325 woodys megabights with tall nuts and alum round backers for sale. Used about 500 miles

PM me with an offer if your intrested.

I run 1.375's in my 1" track.

I had 5,000 miles using 96 woodys 1.325'' 5/16'' golddiggers with a combination of double and single backers down the middle track belt using studboys 96 prox pattern. Only had a couple studs bend during the whole time....hookup with this pattern using a shockwave track was excellent whether on icy trails or loose packed trails. I had a 1.25'' ripsaw on my sled for the 07 season...imo it wasn't as good overall as the shockwave. Performance with the shockwave and stud setup mentioned was so impressive...i sold the ripsaw track and installed another new shockwave with the same stud pattern last season...it just works so much better where i ride.

Same here. Why even put the studs in if they're only sticking out .125? After the first road crossing they wear .060 and then what do you have left for hole shotting your buddies?
