Front Suspension Adjustment

[sbojan]

Any info on how to adjust the front suspension of an 01 SRX w/ standard shocks?

Is there a staring point? Is it based on sag, rider weight etc?

Any help is much appreciated.

Merry Christmas

I have found the best luck setting the springs with zero preload with the suspension off the ground, the springs should be slightly loose.

what skid do you have in the rear of the sled?

I have an M-10 in it and have replaced the front shock mounts with taller ones.

I just had the shocks rebuilt and am not sure if they were changed or not. When I pulled out my owners manual I realized it is for an SXR with longer travel so the specs on the preload are not applicable.

Any advise would be appreciated, I believe you have an M-10 as well, if not I will try Mr. Sled's suggestion.

its really a crap shoot as you have alot of variables with that sled. as stiff as you can stand to ride with is a great answer when you need ride height. if the sled doesnt need ride height, as soft as you can go around a corner with is the best answer.
