Any help please my wife is 110 lbs soaking wet and riding her ltx se she is getting bucked around even on the softest settings I have the front skid shock setup dang close but have narrowed it down to the rear torsions now is their a part number for a softer torsion spring that we can put on it to help soften up the rear?
I know revalving is the best but we are now in season and sending them out to revalve may lose us a weekend where as in an hour or 2 i can have these on and ready

Thank you for any help
 
Call Hygear and get the soft springs for the rear. I have the dual rate springs for the front and center as well---best thing I did. ( except for the turbo!!!)

I know Studroes got a lighter set thru Arctic Cat........
 
I would really look for someone close to do the revalve.I dont think you will be able to get it where you want with just the springs.
 
I put softer ones on my ltx se last year, it was a bandaid, sounds like you know that already, but now since I got my shocks revalved I'm very happy I have the softer springs for my own personnel preference.

You'll need to order these through an arctic cat dealer as they are a cat part. You'll notice them to be a bit softer and will loosen up with some miles, but ultimately what the ltx se NEEDS is shocks revalved.
 
My friends gf is 110lbs too. And the part numbers listed are great! She picked up a 14 LTX and was getting bucked around pretty good this wknd.. she knows to revalve, but I don't think softer springs could hurt either.
 
The softer springs alone will help over the small choppys and give a bit more weight transfer, other than that I didn't notice any other gains, the biggest gain is getting proper shock valving.
