THE PERFECT FIT
SUSPENSION QUICK SET-UP GUIDE
SUSPENSION QUICK SET-UP GUIDE
The front and rear suspensions on your snowmobile are easy to adjust. Just
remember three simple steps:
Step 1: Ride your snowmobile.
Ride the snowmobile in various terrain to fully experience the existing
suspension settings before making any adjustments.
Step 2: Adjust the torsion spring to tune vehicle balance.
After riding, you should be able to determine if the snowmobile needs more or
less transfer.
• For more transfer,
decrease
the torsion spring preload.
• For less transfer,
increase
the torsion spring preload.
If you prefer your snowmobile has lighter steering, decrease the torsion spring
preload or increase the front track shock spring preload.
Step 3: Adjust shock clickers (if equipped) for ride quality.
For models equipped with monotube shocks, always adjust the rear torsion
spring preload to enhance bottoming resistance.
For models with shock clickers, you can adjust the clickers to control bottoming
and adjust ride comfort.
• Turn a clicker counter-clockwise to decrease damping for a softer ride.
• Turn a clicker clockwise to increase damping for a stiffer ride and less
bottoming.
NOTE
Always adjust the clicker at least one click below full stiff (full clockwise) or
shock damage could occur.
Test ride the snowmobile and continue making spring and clicker adjustments
until you achieve the perfect ride.
NOTE
Adding traction components, such as traction studs or additional ski skag
carbides, or changing the factory equipped track, could change handling
characteristics. Addition setup may be required.
