Sidewinder Trail Suspension

get the sled on a lift.....work the bars back and forth....you'll find many....I used lithium in the boots....and the plastic pillow blocks that hold the steering post that was sticking and squeeking...

old school I know...but maybe a little 3 in 1 on the ball joints?

Fluid film works great and lasts for weeks.

where can you buy that in the states?

 

[Pstn head]

Not sure in the States, in Canada it's available at specific stores. It's super gooey and leaves a durable film on anything it's applied to. Try google "Fluid film" distributers in United States, maybe Wall Mart.

Does it make it into the ball joint...or protect moisture from getting into?

 

[Pstn head]

It works its way into everything, and has superior water repelling qualities. You will be impresed.

I spray every moving part including ski and suspension bushings, basically anywhere there isn't a grease nipple with moving parts.
Also spray the entire sled minus plastics for chassis storage and spray all electrical connections.

with the fluid film? Im sure its sans the engine area....would make a mess and no real benefit..

Its like WD 40 on Steroids.
Lasts longer. A little thicker.
Not cheap but great stuff.

here in the rust belt, it is commonly used to fully undercoat vehicles through drilled access points etc.

The front track shock spring on the LTX- SE model is to soft on the initial sit in rate.. I went with a RAPTOR spring.. Which I believe to be very close to 135/260... The stocker is 90/260.. Also after 500-600 miles the shocks/springs LOOSEN UP ALOT ... I actually hated my SE until about 600 miles

My bet is you will think its to harsh your first ride.. They need miles and a few adjustments... After that they are pretty good.. Not as good as the LE for sure but good

Was it there triple rate coil spring?Item number 5732
