on a 2010 arctic cat crossfire 800 because i was wondering if their was enough clearance also if the gearing was ok because i know if you get a 2.25 it has M8 gearing and clutch weights and you can change weights but im not sure about the gearing if anyone could help that would be awesome
Does anyone know if you can switch the track from a 1.5 to a 2.25(lug)

Probably will want to make the changes to the clutches to the next altitude range up and run a set of adjustable weights. That's what we have done so far, just put the track on this fall so got to see how it's going to work.
I know that when the crossfire7 first came out guys were taking them and stretching them to 153s and running the stock gearing because they could get higher track speed, and they were just playing with the clutching.

I have had mine changed from the 1.5 cobra to the 2.25 powerclaw (both 141 length) for the last two years...no change other than the track. Stock everything else. I have recently (last year) changed the wieghts out to adjustable only because my original wieghts were getting a little worn. This is a 2010 crossfire. Works excellent. I weigh around 260 geared up and have no belt or clutch issues. Mixed deep snow and trail riding. IF I was goint to be only deep snow constantly I would maybe try and run slightly lower gears but the extra track speed you get from the stock gearing works well IMO.

Weights may need changing but stock gearing is no problem. Before changing weights run your sled and see where your revving at before and after the swap, target rpm will be in the 8000 to 8100rpm range.
