Different weights Yes. Alternating them is good for fine tuning the total weight without buying complete sets. Now, Mixing rollers and sliders?? I'm not to sure thats a good idea.

OK...I had to try it. I put 3 15g rollers and 3 12g sliders in the variator. That lasted for about 3 seconds. Back to all sliders. Sometimes thinking outside the box doesn't work. But hey, now I know.

Yes it does. I searched and searched to see if anyone tried this and could not find anyone who did, so I thought I would. But I only tried it on the center stand with the cvt cover off.
I did not like the sound of it right away. By the way, I had spare parts just in case. No, I did not ruin anything but it sure was noisey if only for three seconds.

Oh, I forgot to say....My shop is connected to the house but is well insulated and after trying this, my wife came out to the shop and said " What the hell was that noise?".

Why did I try this you may ask. Well, I once welded two rims together on a LTD car so I could then weld rear tractor tires on. Why you may ask, I never seen it done before and people sure got a kick out of this car jacked up as it was in the parades.
