Running noise front track area on decel or compressing suspension. Not sure where it's coming from.

Known issue, lower front skid mount to lower holes, back to center holes

Put in lower holes? Mine are in center hole now

Where your feet are, that bolt on both sides in the top hole or bottom?

 

[mshabaz]

It's in the top hole

Move that one to the bottom hole. Or ask your dealer to move it

I can easily do that. So I can just assume it's a slight clearance issue.

Seems all the 2016 XTX LE have it, some say theirs came with bolt in bottom hole and some do not. Inrbigness had it happen on Thanksgiving weekend and he fixed it moving the bolt down. He may respond here if he sees it.

Yep. Known issue. Lower the skid to the bottom holes on tithe front and the middle ones on the back. Let air out of shocks, support the rear. Undo rear ones first then undo the front ones. Slide down, attach front bolts then tears. Refill shocks filing evol chambers first put sled down.

This fixes the issue. It not only moves it down but also back about 1/2 inch.
