Guest Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 The drive system ENDS at the drive cogs,,,the track is the DRIVEN system and therefore NOT part of the drive ratio equation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1jkw Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 If you stand an 8' 2"x4" on a conveyor belt, does the top or bottom reach a given point at different times? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 1 hour ago, steve from amherst said: PLease explain why it is. TIA Track gets laid down for the skid to ride across. Only thing the lug height changes is the height of the wheels and slides above the ground. Even if you had a way to put 10' lugs on the track, the same length of track is laid down by each rotation of the driveshaft and therefore the sled can only move that far as it's attached to the thing doing the track-laying. Another way to think of it is this. Does a train riding on taller rails have a different drive ratio than one riding on shorter rails?

USA Contributing Member $poorsledder$ Posted December 18, 2018 USA Contributing Member Share Posted December 18, 2018 So I'm looking for an aftermarket cog kit that will change my 6" wheels to 8". I figure if I need a different track I can get a stock one here cheap from one of the dummies swapping it for taller tracks trying to get some more speed out of their sled.

When I responded to and email he sent me stating why he was wrong he didn't reply. Let me be clear there is nobody and I mean nobody in snowmobiling that I respect more than Mr. Aaen I just feel on this particular question he is incorrect. Response from Olav Aaen cut and paste from my email. Actually, to be totally correct the pitch diameter should be calculated to the outside of the lug since that is the rotating speed (Surface Speed) as it comes off the sprocket on a hard surface. On softer snow surface, it all depends on penetration and also slippage. There is seldom 100% hookup ever with studs on hard ice, so optimal final gearing is always determined by testing!

Olav Aaen The problem with his answer is that he fails to take into account the drive sprocket is not on the surface, but above it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't fukken blame me when Auni is screaming " Mommy, mommy, a crazy man is hitting Daddy!! " Why do you get to choose the professional? I proved someone else wrong on this back in 97. Had a 96 670 Summit I swapped tracks on from midwest to mountains. 1.5" track moved the sled the same distance as the 1" track with 10 rotations of the secondary.
