Should the limiter strap have slack in it while sitting on the ground with no weight on it??
i would say yes, mine does but it also depends on how tight your preload is on the shock, are you noticing a problem with the ride? there are many ways to set up your suspension (fra, spring preload, ski pressure, mount locations ect..) what are you trying to do? ....CP

I've been trying to dial this thng in. I have it in a 96 vmax 4. The sleds been all over the place and no traction. I lowered th preload on th front shot and have a new strap coming. Right now as the sled sits on the ground the back of the track is in the air with no weight on it
I had a 94 vmax-4 with a m10 and loved that sled, that sounds right, i used bender 1" lowering tubes in the front and made some 1" spacers for the front springs, (to maintain stock ski preload) this lighten up the ski pressure and removed 1" of front travel. When the rear was jacked up off the ground with the front of rear skid just touching there was about 1-1.5" of rear skid off the ground, also i ran the front torque arm in the top hole of the rail with about 1/2" preload to the front skid spring, and a longer adjustment on the cross over tube by 3/8" from fast adjustment chart......
Is your track studded?....
i had 144, 1 1/4" gold diggers down the center with a 1" camoplast predator track and this track was better than the stock one that came with the sled in 1994 and helped with traction....
i would say to put more preload to the front track shock not less, and back off on your fra adjustment so the sled will squat a little more, set your sag near 5" , and less preload with the adjustment on your struts by backing off your compression dampers if that sled came with them....
remember the front is heavy and you want to rock back onto your track more....good luck....CP
