Suspension help...

[Twisted Pleasure]

I know this is played out but I read some other guys setups and you all have 50 lbs on me. I have a 2015 xtx and I love the sled but everything is stiff. Landing are hard. I never jump higher then 5-10 feet high. And steering is really heavy. I'm 6' 185. I'm going to play with the suspension tomorrow and wondering where the shock pressure and limiter straps should be set for a guy my weight. Thanks.

Stingray I've read your skid spring setup 3 times lol. We will a get to that this summer. That peaked my interest.

Try 110 to 120 in rear loosen centre 1 full turn and 65 in fronts limiter strap in middle . You should post your current setup and more detail of trouble you are having such as type of hard landing bottoming out or kicking back and what type of riding you do softer rear is good for bigger landings and smaller stuff but bigger yes mams close together may bottom out on some in the offseason a revalve for your weight and riding style would be a good idea hope this helps.

Thanks kodak. My front shocks were at 70lbs now 65. My rear shock was at 125 now 110. I tried to loosen the center shock but couldn't get it to budge. Going on a 120 mile ride tomorrow so we will see!

use a monkey wrench or slip jaw pliers the centre shock will probably help you the most. probably easiest with sled off ground but not necessary

$60.00 spring and 15 minutes makes a world of difference in setup. I mean BIG change for the better. More skid transfer means better traction along with better ride. Both these in the pics have been modified (and are NOT stuck...lol)

37 plus shipping. Itll be here next week stingray.
Ive got the viper dialed in pretty good, best its ever been anyhow.
Rode the nytro and its still better then the viper. Only thing i miss is the higher seat. Hmmmm 300 seat makes nytro as good as the viper?
Maybe just raise the rear of the seat 4" or so
