Put an 1 1/4 inch paddle track on my 05 600 sdi x and I noticed that I lost about 10 mph on the hard pack. Also noticed that my sliders were heating up preety bad. I am wondering if guys changed any gearing in there sled and if so by how many teeth? Right now I have the stock gearing in it(22-43) and am considering putting in a 21 tooth gear in it. But the trouble still remains with the sliders. I have 96 picks in it and I don't want to run it to lose in fear of wreaking the front heat exchanger. Any Ideas

Agree, 2 fingers with 15-20 pounds of pull down pressure. Make sure you have tunnel protectors if you are running studs. I have your same sled and same track. I geared my sled down to a 21 top gear and love it.
-Good luck
Most sleds from the factory are geared too tall and will not shift out. By gearing down you pull harder, clutches shift out and may gain top end. I gained speed on my 04 800HO Renagade by gearing down.
