My sled's track (121 x 15) has a 2.52 Pitch. Can I put on a 121x15 track with a 3.29 pitch? Will the track slip or not fit properly? Or is the Pitch just the angle of the paddles? I'm just trying to get snowbound for the season, performance changes I'm not worried about. I just can't have the track slipping or anything.
Thanks.

It will not fit properly. If I remember correctly, the pitch is the distance between the lugs on the track. The problem will be that the drivers will probably not match up correctly to the track.

Yup, the pitch of the track has to match the pitch of the drivers. You would have to change drivers as well. The pitch is the distance between the inner lugs.

The guy just e-mailed me and said his track has 45 holes in it. 121" / 45 holes = 2.69 pitch. My track at 2.52 pitch has 48 holes. Anyone ever heard of a 121" track with 45 holes? Only thing I can think of, is a 113" track with a 2.52 pitch which would give 45 holes....

They need to recount. They can also measure the track as well. Mark a starting point and measure all the way around till you get back to your starting point.
