Who is running limiter in stock hole and who let theirs out to the last hole? Loss of steering let all the way out?

I want to let mine out to last hole to get rid of ski pressure for lighter steering if it's not there already. What is stock hole? Didn't look at mine.

Stock. Sled is remarkably compliant.

Mine came mounted in last hole. It does lift skis on trail if you use over half throttle. Let up on throttle a bit to let them down for steering around a fast curve and then point and shoot again! Have not tried any other position on limiters whereas these sleds do steer heavy on hard packed trail and I do not want to make it steer any harder. Added some pressure on my front suspension shock today. Might get to ride again next weekend.
Sled still does not lift the skis much more over small hills or jumps, really likes to stay flat. Must be a 137 thing. You can launch it over bumps but not wheelies. Very stable sled for that, stays planted, need more speed than others I have owned to wheelie. Had a 1997 SX700 acted like that but had no suspension, this thing rocks on bumps.

Moved to the second hole, added 6" shaper bars and it steers great without a lot of effort. It does reduce the ski lift on take off and at low speeds.

Mine is the way it came from the dealer. It looks it's on the last hole, but feeling around by the bolt I'm guessing there is one more hole, which is partially covered by the washer and bolt now. So, I guess stock is basically 1 shy of fully out.
In hard pack, it pushes and feels heavy in front. On looser trails with more snow, it feels lighter and doesn't bite hard on the outside ski.
I'm leaving it and going to tweak the coils per others suggestions in other threads. Might turn blocks and cams too,if I ever figure out which way to turn them!

They have 5 holes and most are in the #2 hole stock.. I have mine in #1 LONGEST length.
This depends on the ski you are running(as to what hole you want).. aftermarket skis typically are more aggressive and have more steering effort..
A lot of factors .. But these sleds seem to have plenty of weight over the skis.. so if your looking for more ski pressure pull em up.. But most have to much pressure stock... So it seems
