I have no thread showing now. Max preload on my spring.

no threads showing would actually be the minimum amount of preload.
None below the adjuster nut, all theads showing above the adjuster.
Or maybe I have it backwards, basically no threads showing on the spring side of the nut, max pressure on the spring.
Glass half full or half empty I guess.

Yeah I had it backwards the adjuster nut is on the bottom of the shock so basically it's all the way up compressing the spring to its max. No threads showing above it.

Are you running a stiffer spring on your center shock? Star recommends skidoo part number 503192064.

I'm running the stiffer spring from star on my 2013 nytro 120", I got the spring from Robert so I'm not sure if he gave me the skidoo spring but he did say it's stiffer than the original, also have his 129" relocate kit, both rear straps are set to there longest, front springs have very little preload and with the tuners skis steering is light...
Few weeks back I put on split rail skis to improve the nytro cornering ability and that was a awesome upgrade, never thought SR skis would make that much of a difference and steering is still very light...

Hello Did ever publish results from this testing?I'm going to be testing curve skis with snow trackers end of this week. The snowtrackers really lighten up steering effort on stock skis, and am hoping they will do the same on the curve skis.
