what does the Proaction Plus w/Easy-Adjust rear suspension work?

[mountainmaxrider]

like the title says! what does easy adjust mean? adjusting the transfer rods or adjusting the shocks?

 

[seca]

it changes the angle of the rear shock-making it ride softer of stiffer without having to adjust the pre-load of the shock spring(witch is a real pain in the ***!!)

What he said but in other words . . .

The easy adjust refers to the FRA (Full Rate Adjuster) on the Proaction Plus suspension. It has three positions that change the overall rate that the shock travels relative to the suspension.

Where is this adjustment? The limiter strap?

It's at the top of the rear shock. You'll see a slotted mount for the shock. On the 01 and newer sleds the slot is knurled, loosen the nut while holding the bolt end (do not try to loosen the bolt u could strip the knurling) then rotate the bolt to move between the indents in the slot, thighten nut. Done.

Now, how might you know that ? ? ? LOL

I still have the first Pro-Action skid where I stripped the ridges off

So i take it the top position is the stiffest?

Up is down and down is up . . .

Top position is softest, bottom is hardest.

That said there is a little more to it, but just remember that it changes the overall rate at which the spring and shock travel relative to the skid in the chassis.
