Dropped the Floats Pressure - Shocked at Difference

[Yeller]

I dropped the floats pressure on my nytro to 50 psi to drop the a-arms to parallel with the ground. I was simply shocked and amazed at how well my sled corners now. I've been battling inside ski lift for almost two seasons now and was skepitcal about dropping the floats pressure due to how low it brings the front down to the ground. I can now go into a corner and not be worried about when and if the inside ski will lift. I also have the limter sucked up one hole and am now able to back off the control rod nuts to have some weight transfer.

Just wanted to voice how happy I am with this simple adjustment and am kicking myself for not doing this earlier. She's a totally different sled now.

Thanks once again ty members.

Me too. I loosened by from shock preload until the springs rattled, tightened 'em back one turn. A-arms almost parallel, softened up the front compression damping a few clicks. Made a HUGE difference in steering and cornering. Then I later added a 13mm sway bar...wow!

I run mine at 35 psi and 3500 miles later no problems.

The lower the press the better she will rail. You have to find a suitable compromise between flat handling and front end bump absorption ability. This will be dependent on how smooth the trails you ride are and how hard you pound bumps.
For me the best handling is around 40 pounds or less but the ride is too harsh. I settle for 50PSI.

Hi Rik, I did that experience last weekend....after 6000 miles... I dropped the floats at 50 psi for the first time. Wow...big difference.

I'm on my last miles with my nytro, will be changing next year.
