i had my drop brackets both break and the scissor bent the opposite direction and sheared off all the inner rubber track lugs and it ripped out some of the cords in the process. is it salvageable if i put glide clips on the inside?

Don't know if its salvageable or not but i have a buddy that just replaced his 174x3x16 to the 174x3.2x15 right from 0 miles so the track is brand new. not sure what he would sell it for but i can find out. PM me.

i have an x3 track coming. ill report how i like it vs the t3 track. stock drop brackets broke. i was in a bad spot and lucky i was able to ride it out (on ski hill land). I put a lot of thought into it and dont feel comfortable going way out where we go and have to possibility of the track grenade

i got a couple days on the x3 track and will do a small review as i said. i like the lug profile better on the x3 as i dont care about any mediocre snow conditions. i also like the quality of the x3 better as this track doesn't fray and have strands of cords constantly coming out the edges that to behave to be melted off.
the one thing i dislike is that the overall 3 width of the lugs is 3/4" narrower than the t3 track. tracks canada who i bought it from told be it would be within 1/8 of an inch difference. had i know this i would have had the track trimmed 1/2" on each side. overall in deep snow i feel that the performance is very similar to the t3 track if not, might be better.
