Hey guys I am up north right now with the women getting the viper out for it's first trail ride. I have a 1.6" ice ripper track, which seems like when hitting decent bumps might be rubbing in the tunnel? Anyone else have an issue like this. We are riding two up, and I did have my rear and center shock revalved. What would I adjust to make it a little stiffer, I think it's bottoming out or bouncing to much and I assume the tracks rubbing somewhere can't really see any marks but can hear weird noises when hitting decent bumps. I adjusted the torsion springs to what I think is the stiffest, not really sure since it's not like the nytro where it said soft, medium, hard.
If anyone could help I would appreciate it!
 
I think the only adjustment that you have is the torsion springs. Coupling blocks too, but I'd guess that you are contacting them with static load anyhow.

Turn the adjuster until you have the largest amount plastic between the center bolt of the adjuster and the spring. Best way I can explain it. If you revalved to make it a softer ride the torsion springs may not be enough.
