    Carbides for C&A XPT skis

    Yea I know now. I didn't think they would be this hard to turn. I bought them because of how bad the tuners pushed in corners.

    Center spring adjustment

    Ok,so I am trying to take the pre load out of the front ski springs. To back them of I need to turn the collar to the left? (Counter clockwise) because this seems wrong. The shock is showing more thread at the top after some turning it seems to be gaining threads shouldn't it be moving up?

    Center spring adjustment

    I tightened the collar as much as I could. Maybe four turns and then I couldn't get it to budge even though there are still threads to go. I went around the yard and didn't feel any difference. Could this be also because we only hvhve 2-3 inches on the ground? Should I adjust the ski shocks also?

    Center spring adjustment

    Thanks guys. I will lift it and tighten both plastic and steel collars tomorrow and see what happens. I could've swore that everything I read said to loosen the collar and back it down. Yes, my goal is lighter steering effort.

Then I brought the plastic collar down. Took it for a spin. No difference in how stiff the steering was...
