srx 00 vs 01 & 02 suspension

My 00 SRX rear sits up a tad in the back of the track even after I tightened the limiters down. Do the 01 and 02 srxs do this also? Thanks

yes they do, they did this for better weight transfer. as the sled accelerates, the supension collapses then rocks back onto the rear idlers that are already off the ground, giving you a bigger foot print. you can drill a hole one inch shorter in the straps and shorten them even more to help get the rear axle on the ground but you will lose the acceleration it was designed for. the 98-99's had this problem, they also have different transfer rods than the 00-02's. ski

Yes the back end of the skid is designed this way for transfer you don;t wont to change that

thanks guys? I am going to run my limiter straps at the 42mm update - hopefully that will work running my buddies on the firecats.
