Twitchy front end

[99cobrasvt]

Hi I have a 2001 srx 700 that i bought used.. it has a 1 1/4 ripsaw track and new carbides on the front.. when i let off the gas its all over the place in the front its scary on a groomed trail.. Guys are saying its my front shock on my track some say needs more preoad some say less.
I did a search and im not sure what to do with it thanks....

Mine does that too. It helped a little when I adjusted the track tension, one side was a little tighter than the other.

There's also a lot of slop in the steering, I think the it's mainly in the ski spindles. I did a search and someone said to replace the bushings. Would that be #14 and #30? Or maybe #31/32? It looks like all the slop is coming from the teeth at the top of #29 and inside #25/26

upon closer inspection I think I was mistaken in my previous post (about #25/26 being bad). If you're steering is loose like mine is, I'd check:

#31
#30
#14
#25/26 can be tightened if slipping
