Vintage Track Paddle Extensions???

[SAFASTRO]

Does anyone know if it's possible to add longer paddles to my 81 Enticer 340 track?? Right now they're only 5/8", and would like at least 1 1/4" if possible.
Any insight would be great!

check clearance at front or track to the tunnel and along top to tunnel or check some of the track manufactuer websites to see what they allow.

Good idea. But do they make a rivet on paddle at all for the existing track?

Had a set of 1 1/4" on a 440 JAG and they worked awesome in the snow. Watch out on the hard pack and ice though.

Hey sledidiot.......I sent you a PM.

Yes, if you put plastic on it, screw some sheet metal screws into the paddles as well, or you will find yourself going sideways down the trail at 50 mph when you hit some hardpack.

You can buy the extruded plastic and just cut it yourself. We used it successfully in up to 3" paddles without breakage but they will bend over time.

Thanks for all the replies!

Anyone know the best place to buy the right stuff? And how thick would I need? 1/4" - 3/8" thick and 1 and 1/4" long?

Anyone have any pictures?

call a plastic dealer or maker and find some angle plastic in the height u want. we used to get it in 2" x 2"

you will probably have to go to smaller drivers or drop and roll. i know the kids exciter has a 1.5 on it and 7 tooth drivers for clearance. still tight at the front. good luck.
