Listen closely Mr blake with the stuck Caps Lock.
There are certain facets of life that relate to milk & cookies.
You MUST eat Oreo's with milk & you MUST run SlimJims on Curves!

I have the same sled as you and are you running the stock center shock besides the spring change?
I would like to run the 160 lb spring but don't want it to be too harsh in the chop trails.
Yes
if you weigh 280 ....you will need a stiffer center spring as you are blowing through the spring and creating ski pressure...this is the first place to start...hit up cannondale on here as he might have or can point you..

Look up GSE performance, if you have the extra coin to spend and need a drastic change they offer an electric power steering kit for sidewinders. Looking forward to hearing feed back on this kit this coming winter.

Or just install the Barn of Parts mechanical power steering arms on it any enjoy much easier steering. Its the one thing I'd wished I'd have done sooner but was a bit skeptical to try it. Turned out it was for real.

I can judge a man by how he treats dogs, how he eats cookies & the Mayonnaise he eats.
Now our new friend, upper case blake, already has Curves so his first step is SlimJims & adjustments. Then if hard steering is still an issue, then BOP power steering device could be his next step.
Just stay away from Miracle Whip............and Craft!

2. Toilet paper MUST roll from the top
This has been analyzed, studies have been done, and the results are in: Toilet paper should roll from the bottom!
But I agree, sweetened artificial mayonnaise substitute is definitely not good for dogs!
But I like the tangy Zip!

Who sells the 160 lb center spring and how much?
When I lift the ski by hand to put rollers under it feels like I am trying to lift my whole sled.
Also I have a bad push when entering the corners.

I do.$70 and shipping. Skis or setup are cause of your push. 99% sure with your track its the skis. Spring will not help Pushing situation but will make your front end lighter.Who sells the 160 lb center spring and how much?
