Go to suspension-stock in main menu, all suspension update topic, start reading, much info in there, good luck & enjoy!
 
Rove, 2 things you can do for no $, is first shim the skis, and second raise the front end off of the floor, and loosen the top nut over the shock spring until there is a 3/16 to a 1/4" gap between the spring and the top nut. This will allow the sled to sit lower, lower COG, and reduce ski lift. You must also learn to ride the sled, it is different. You must power down before a turn and repower to the desired speed before going into a turn. Good luck. Do a search for rear suspension set ups, LB has this down to a science.

For just a few dollars you can get the longer links and bigger swaybar, this will help also.
