Hey, new to the forum and four stroke turbos, learning alot with all these resourceful posts and replys. I am looking to set up the suspension on my new old stock 2023 LTX GT . I started by trying to set up the SAG in the rear but I am at four and a half inches? Is that acceptable? And how would I set up the rear suspension once I have the correct sag for my 230lb? I am mostly an aggressive rider. I have the front shocks dialed in as many have mentioned, springs backed off as much as possible and set on #1. Thanks

I set wife's and mine to 3" sag. Gotta count on snow and ice weight too. I'm 300# and have 22# torsion springs... don't think I've bottomed if at all.Hey, new to the forum and four stroke turbos, learning alot with all these resourceful posts and replys.

How did you set sag? With torsion block? Or centre shock spring?I set wife's and mine to 3" sag. Gotta count on snow and ice weight too. I'm 300# and have 22# torsion springs... don't think I've bottomed if at all.

Torsion block. If you're over 200, you could need different torsion springs. You don't want to attain your ride height with added torsion block positions...you want your block set low or mid at desired sag by using the proper spring rateHow did you set sag?

Note: I measure sag at the upper wheels in skid to ground, not bumper. 3"Torsion block. If you're over 200, you could need different torsion springs.
