suspension or Cog gear noise 05 warrior and rage??

[Yama-Crazy]

Anyone hear that knocking noise when going like 20-25 mph over small 1 & 1/2' multible bumps seems that everyone I talk to hears the same thing. Is there a way to get rid of it whatever it is? And what is it? Sounds like a thumping noise under front of seat area probally cog gear and freeplay? Only notice it at slowwer speeds. Is it beacause the sled is so quiet that I just never noticed it on my other sleds? brand new warrior at dealer does same noise too so I know its nothing thats broke but its annoying at times.

I believe it is from your transfer rods. If you grab the rod there is 1/4" of movement from side to side (grab down where the transfer rod connects to the rail). You could put a washer or shim in to tighten it up, but it must move freely through the suspensions range of travel.

My wife has a 05 rage and I hear the same noise when riding it my dealer said to tighten up the front shock spring one full turn and that should take care of it, going to do her sled this weekend hope it fixs it.
