clutch question

[baitcaster]

what would be some signs that a clutch is going on your sled? When I go off an approach I get a rumbling sound. almost sounds like it is coming from my track. Could it be my clutch slipping?

thanks,

What kind of sled is it? ANd when you say "go off an approach" do you mean launching into the air or just driving over a driveway approach? You probably have ice buildup in your tunnel, that is what most rumbling noises stem from.

Check your belt, it may have some flat spots?

Thanks I'll check my belt tonight.

I would add that you should raise the sled and check the track tension, it may be too loose and ratcheting. As a general rule there should be less than a half inch between the track and the slides. Also rotate the track by hand to check for smooth rotation and alignment, possibly a bearing going out somewhere.

could be a bad driveshaft bearing, broken limiter strap ect..
