so do u just basically have to let off the gas more than u think u should because the skis are lifting on u ? because if thats it the u want to tighten up the front springs to put more pressure on the them not loosen them off that will cause it to have more ski lift and im pretty sure u have to move it forward and that will transfer more weight to the front of the sled putting pressur on the skis

i don't want to argue with rage... i heard the same philosophy from three very intelligent snowmobile guys.......but i went the opposite way on my attak. I released all the pre-load on front springs and tightened the limiter strap one hole. It truely made a totally different sled out of mine. Right or wrong this is what I KNOW worked for ME. virtually NO ski lift. I fixed my "pushing" problem with a set of U.S.I. X2 skis. Definetly doesn't push or dart.....just have to have gorilla arms to turn the bars. Not sure if this helps

I spent time reading all of the Swaybar posts... Lots of great information.
I just ordered the 12mm one from Pioneer. I think with this, Lowering the a-arms and going up on the limiter strap with resolve my issue....
I didn't go with the 13mm because I don't want a harsher ride. I bought the GT for the ride quality. I already took some away with the spring and the revalve.... but it was worth it...
THANKS ALL!!!!!!

I would start with decreasing wt shift to mid or min, cheap and based on my experience see- below-may be all you need.
I have the stock sway bar and had a huge change in handling from near railing loved it(slight body roll) to can't corner even moderatly fast with any power - not like it at all with three simple changes.
I studded, changed wt transfer to almost to max, and took out a HUGE 3/8 + shim on back ski bumper and replaced with bergstrum 1/8 incher.
I like the lighter steering, a little darting but today I am going to change the Wt shift back to much less transfer and I hope that brings it back to a better handling sled. Next year either Bergstrum tripples or duallies or Dueces thinking tripples now.
Good luck , I always start with simple and cheap and then try after market and money.
