i`ve seen a company that will cut out the closed windows and install track clips on your track for 250.00. thats seems pretty pricy. has anyone cut out their own tracks and put the clips in themselves?
thats a good idea too auggie but i want to get rid of the extra drag with the track rubbing on the sliders thats why i want to cut the windows and use the clips.
I bought a 151 doo track with ever third window closed and what I did is bought the clips and used a track clip installer I rented from the ski-doo dealer or you can buy one. but all they do to cut them out is a chisle I think the hole is 1" by 1.5" so two differant tools and a peice of hard wood block too put under the track when your hitting the chisle.it took me approx 4 hours and cost to do a 151 $100 for the clips and $20 dollars to rent the tool. I did it to run extravert drivers and it works great>

Would'nt it just be easier to sell the track and buy a fully clipped track? All us doo owners need to write skidoo and bitch about this cheap, poor design they came up with several years ago. I like doo so much that when I buy one the first thing to go is that lousy track! *I usually get enough out of it to break even. I currently run a cat track. At least cat & Polaris have one good thing going...

Well, guess what Mikadoo. Polaris already runs the closed window track and have for a couple years. Cat will be doing the same on some of their sleds. Stupid.
