Snowmobile Traction Time!

Hello to all. Thank you so much for watching another video of mine. In this video, I have decided to put some studs in the track of my 2007 Yamaha ATAK snowmobile. This is a 136" track and I have decided to put in 96 studs in this track. When I was riding this last year it was fishtailing everywhere. There just was not enough traction for this 150-hp sled. I have also checked out the carbide runners for the skis and they also need to be replaced. I have ordered some Woody's 6" ACE carbide runners for the skis. The runners were ordered after I put the studs in. This video is not very long but it gives you an idea of the kind of work this is and how long a duration of time it may take to do the job. I did have some problems with the cold and the battery for the drill. I ended up doing 2/3rds of the tightening of the nuts with a ratchet. One-third of the time the battery was charged enough to use the drill to get the nuts tightened on the track. Now after this dumb rain storm it has taken most of the snow away and I see more rain in the near future. It is wintertime in Maine, right? Where the heck is the snow! Hopefully, we get some soon. I am itching to get back out on the trails. God Bless, and be safe out there everyone. Thank you so much for watching.
