2009 xtx with a front shock that has the bolt hole worn through from studs rubbing on it... And it needs new bushings in it... limiter straps are just about worn through. What are my best options, don't want to do this every year.
If I put a regular 144 m-10 under it then I may not have to screw trying to fix yamahas suspenstion problems...
I will love to hear some answers, please.
thank you in advance.

What does studs rubbing through causing issues have anything to do with Yamaha's suspension problems?
Mine has been flawless. Although you can never go wrong with aftermarket suspension. Best investment you can make on any machine.

Can you not just re-stud the track away from the centre so it does not rub the shock mount?

There are a few of us looking at options.
Pulling just the center studs is a cheap and might be the only option.
Read these other posts to see that Yamaha also made a change before 2011 production sleds were shipped.

I've ridden a few sleds with M-10 and they are very nice smooth suspensions, but lack weight transfer, and bottom easily (and hard).
If you went with the M-10 and the airwave shocks, then I hear its much better, at least for the bottoming problem.
I'd look for a polaris 144 switcback suspension, with the tipped up rails. That would take care of the limiter strap problem, the shock rubbing problem, and the hyfax problem. And in addition to all of that, the shocks would probably be valved better. Just a thought.
