Rick, 

You're right!  If I have to go through all of the trouble of taking the track 
off, I only want to do that once!  

That does look like my traveler car too.

So does anyone have any pros/cons about harken, garhauer, lewmar, etc...?

Rick, and  Bob or anyone else that has done this upgrade, besides the pre-warm 
up stretching, is there anything else I should be ready for?

Ivan, 
Not too long ago I had the same problem with the traveler. 
One of the guys on the website sent an old traveler to me and I used the white 
wheels to replace those "lost' from my traveler. It works OK. The real hard 
thing is that you have to unscrew the old track completely to dismount & 
remount the track. This required the flexibility of a contortionist. I even 
climbed inside the rear hatch to get a better angle. 
Then you have a working traveler with old plastic wheels. If you are going to 
race the boat, it might make more sense to upgrade to a better car, and not 
have to do it twice.
