<strong>Track Studs, Backers, Nuts:</strong> We carry Stud Boy Traction products

<strong>Which length stud is best</strong>
Trail riders should use a stud that is no more than 3/8"(.375") taller than the tallest part of your track. While some people use longer studs in trail and racing applications, you must take special precautions to ensure that you will not damage your sled or the traction products. Be sure to check your installation for proper protection of the tunnel, tunnel protectors and heat exchangers.
