Thanks Buzz!
Yes these were the original tires that came with the machine. Not bad considering the mileage, but brutal considering the replacement costs! Hense why I'm thinking about trying Mud...

I managed to figure out how to attach some pics Buzz for your review. Gives you an idea of what I'm dealing with and the overall setup. Interested in your opinion.

I'm using the factory tires. I will show you some pictures when I get a chance since the machine is far away from me right now. I typically buy slightly used tires at a discounted cost even if they...
Hey Buzz, good to still see you around from time to time!
I keep my middle tires low but I did find after a couple thousand kms it does cause the sidewalls to wear faster then the corners. Not a big...
The Admiral trans is amazing! It's like Power Steering for Argo's. I can drive around all day with one hand and not be fatigued.
So Buzz if the Channel tracks are no long your preferred track for Alaska anymore what is? We have similar terrain in Alberta for the most part and I'm curious. I'm still rocking the Escargo's and...
I have bought my 2013 Argo 700HD with the ST trans and upgraded to the HT trans. Depending the market the HT are more sought out for track use and worth more. The biggest difference I found was sure...
Escargo's are what you want exactly for those reasons! I have put in the time and many miles and they work amazing for those situations no doubt!
They swim great to move around in water but don't...
Just make sure to stay on top of your tire pressures to keep the track tight and you won't have any slippage issues with the track tuners.
I have the Adair 3" spacers and track tuners. It's always funny how some shops hate the Tuners and even funnier they hate the spacers?
They are way more reliable then the crappy Argo brand stud...
Dude, relax. It has nothing to do with you. How do you not understand it's the exchange rate and the shipping that you have no control over? How are you helping fellow riders if they can get it...
Maybe moisture where you guys store your units? I had swamped my unit and it did the same until I got it nice and dried out and no issues no more. Our tarp tents are horrible for moisture, so I try...
Good question. I'm sure the Escargo's can be done but you will have to test and tune and be spot on for tire pressures and keep on top of them. I can't see why you couldn't run tuners with them? Just...
For us Canadians I was looking into Rockwell Canada to build some beadlock kits. Shipping and exchange just kill us crossing the border.
Doesn't make sense, you got stuck in slush and right after you say you have yet to find a challenge? It's like one second they are unstoppable even in terrain you have never put them in but then they...
Always been a pet peeve of mine and a big reason I avoid new year model machines until they catch up with what I call the necessities at least.
For the cover I can't see why the Adair Avenger cover...
You must have better tracks then me then. I am stuck in this pic. I can assure you there is muskeg out there for everything and anything to get stuck in, have you ever even rode in it? Lol
...
He's based out of Alaska and there's a lot of rocky country up there which doesn't suit well to plastic tracks much at all.
Jeff really knows his stuff, I'm basically where I'm at now with tracks cause of that guy. Haha
I don't think anyone has the experience he has on all the different types of tracks. I'm trying but a...
Being you are from Alaska I would try and deal with Jeff AKA Buzz on here for tracks. He's spent a lot of time on all types of tracks in Alaska knowing what you will use it for and set you up the...
