    Question Argo leans to one side

    Hey guys, just serviced up the argo had tracks and tires off and everything, put the tracks back on and went for a burn through some snow, for some reason looking at my argo, it looks like it is leaning to one side, there is little-no distance between the track and the body on the passenger side, and a good inch or two gap on the drivers. it seems to be driving straight and isnt a rough ride. I jacked it up and stood on the tracks as they were elevated, and the gap didnt change, any ideas? IMG_5370.jpgIMG_5369.jpg I didnt see any wiggle in the axles or bearings when i had it jacked up and was watching from inside... Tire pressures same on both sides, tires measured, etc...

    Just curious...Did you put the tires and tracks back in the same order and side that they were on before?
    Even if you’re on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there.

    Look at your lower tub, does it sag from inside wheel well to outside wheel well?
    Is it only at the rear tires? May want to re-measure the rear tires also?

    It seems evenly tight along the entire passenger side. The tires were replaced in the same order and places they were in originally. IMG_5371.jpg IMG_5372.jpg

    argos can get body sag in hot weather. especially if loaded very heavy on the sides or worse if tied down with a cargo strapm over the body from side to side. if you think your machine has that problem,it has been discussed here before and most members say either jacking up or hanging the machine by the body sides and applying lots of heat over a wide area should solve the problem. if you do this, please let us know how it worked.
