I just installed ca pro skis and fox floats on the front of my turbo phazer and this thing has way to much ski pressure. I soften the front track shock and lengthend the front limiter strap all the way out and there is still to much ski pressure does any body have any ideas on what to do to help this problem.

I'm no expert in this but it seems like by softening the front skid shock you are actually shifting weight to the front of the machine. Also, can you decrease the preload on the ski springs, thus reducing ski pressure. I have heard others say that the CA skis increase steering effort as well.

I just picked up a Phazer and have not yet put Floats on it - but...

I have a 2006 Apex RTX and run my Floats at 60 - 75 pounds (fairly low pressure). This greatly reduces the ski pressure. Many people comment on how my a-arms are actually negatively arched when the sled is at rest, but I NEVER bottom these shocks out and the sled simply rocks on the trail.

Can't wait to get floats on my Fizzer MTX.
 
ya I put way to much air in my shocks and need to let some out as well as readjust the rear suspension
