I've taken mine out and tried it, wheelie machine! Doesn't affect the shocks at all, only thing it affects is coupling of the skid. Actually I didn't notice it rode any worse as far as bumps, didn't ride any better either but trying to carry any speed at all through a corner wasn't gonna happen.
My buddy had it out all last season on his turbo cat (3000+kms) with no issues. He was pissed that his cat cant launch like my nytro. lol.

Ya my cousin has a cat turbo cross tour and he doesn't like that I can take him out the hole up to 70 by a half dozen sled lengths, than his turbo does its magic.My buddy had it out all last season on his turbo cat (3000+kms) with no issues.

That's how I run mine, shaft in with blocks removed. Shock valving is a huge thing on the coupled skids. With that shaft removed it very likely makes the sled slower in a drag race, rather than the entire print of the track being on the ground and staying balanced, with the shaft removed it will just dig a trench....but your skis will be pointing to the sky, if that's what you want.

Wheelies are 90% chassis set up I had a 60 hp sleds that could wheelie all day, couldn't turn under power at all. My Viper can turn great and wheelies just barely....my 2 cents =>chassis not 4 stroke

My view from last season just before it went over...no turbo. Most of it is chassis setup.
