Conquest width with tracks

[ndcommander]

Can anyone measure the distance from outside to outside of a 1995 conquest with Standard argo tracks installed. I have a 5 foot trailer and am thinking of getting tracks. I want to make sure it will fit before I buy.

with 18 inches supertracks and axle extensions, mine was exactly 6 feet wide ( it couldn't go through a 71 inches wide door opening)

I don't know exactly, but 60" is going to be very close. I would have thought someone would have posted by now.

I have a 2001 Conquest 6x6. I use 22" runamuks with the std Argo alum axle extensions for the 18" supertracks. Note on my workbench say's " Conquest w/ tracks = 71" wide ". It is currently sitting in my garage with this set-up for winter. I will try to get out today or tomorrow and re-measure but as of now I'll stick w/ the 71" dim. I believe one would subtract aprox 6" from total width if running 12" wide tracks.

You have to subtract the extra width that the supertrack segments stick out past the track guides, along with the thickness of the wheel spacers.

"I believe one would subtract aprox 6" from total width if running 12" wide tracks."

I'm sorry, should have said " I believe one would subtract 6" from that 71" dim if running 12" wide tracks."

Let's look at it another way.. hehe. Take your conquest without the spacers, which you don't use with the narrow tracks. All you have is the track guide wrapping around the runamuk, so that adds an inch or so of track sticking out each side. I think the rubber skirt of the body band is 59" wide, and the runamuks w/o tracks are less than that.

Yeah, thanks Roger. Didn't realize no spacers w/ 12"track. Think it will be 71" minus about 14". Aprox 57" then?

If your referring to argo's "standard" track, they are actually 13" wide...the "super" track is 2.5" wider on each side and does require the 2.5" axle extention (or wheel spacer)
With the standard tracks it will be 61" wide and will just squeez through a 5 foot opening, as the tires will give enough to move in about a 1/2" relatively easy.
The "true tracks" are a little narrower than argo's standard tracks and they do probably measure about 12"
Hope this helps a little

It looks like it is going to be really close my trailer is 64 inches wide. I think the standard tracks are 13 inches wide.

Tim (Obsessed) knows his stuff, he's an argo dealer and makes his own brand of tracks, so I'd bank on his dimension of 61".
