I was riding an 04 rx1 with an m-10 in it for the past 4 yrs and decided to get an 06 apex gt I notice the rear kinda sags when just sitting in the shop, I can lift up on it about 3 inches but as soon as I let go of it it drops back down about 3inches, its this normal? being I'm new to these mono shock skids, the guy I bought it from was about the same size as me.
any help would be great!!!

That will happen if you have the skis off the ground.

The mono skid needs to have the pre-load adjusted for your weight. Here is a link to a thread on this subject.

I forgot to mention that it was on dollies, so then its more then likely normal then, right?

I would say it is normal,I had mine on dollies and it sagged about 4 inches, I then took it of the dollies (all of them skis,and track) and sat it on the ground and it barely sagged and inch. I think you are allright,but if you want try it without the dollies to seeps4020 said:I forgot to mention that it was on dollies, so then its more then likely normal then, right?

It depends upon where the dollie is placed under the track. Try removing the dollies and then see if it is any different.
Check out the thread in my above post and check the pre-load or "sit in" adjustment.
