That's weird. I have the same amount in the heel in my set up and it engages at 4200-4400, I think I have 15,6mm rollers in it. Red primary spring also. But I see now, brand new rollers, probably that's what's doing it. If it was me, I'd break them in with another set of weights. It's acting up as it is binding.
that's what im looking for 4000-4200. im going to add another gram tomorrow and see what happens. maybe back secondary to 60 also. I have an old set of 15's ill try that if the weight doesn't work. thanks

Add weight to the heel
why use 15mm rollers in a srx when they come with 15.6mm?? smaller roller will make you use less weight and be harder to hook up in snow.
read the instructions and they said use 14.5 or 15 and I read on here u said 14.5 are no good ( cant hook up). if your saying 15.6 are better than ill be changing them. thanks I was hoping u would chime in
ok changed rollers back to stock 15.6 and when I took the cap off the red spring has stuck itself in the cap. seems like it is binding anyone else had this happen and if so how did you fix it. i cant spin the spring when its in the cap, catches
it doesn't catch on the sheave spins nice its just the cap. ill try another cap off my spare and see if that makes a difference. thanks for the info

ok cleaned cap and changed cap bushing. got 15.6 rollers in and still engaging around 4600. I got 6grams heel 5.2 tip nothing middle. I took some sand paper and even scuffed up the red spring thinking to much powdercoat causing the spring to bind in the cap.im thinking it should engage lower. any ideas. im using brand new 8dn belt
how much nuetral clearance is there? side clearance from the belt to the side of the sheave?
not really sure if this is what your asking is but primary is off the sled and I took a new belt and put it around it. then I did it to my other primary and I did notice the hc primary wont let the belt down as far as the loaded 8nd20 setup on the shaft. touches the sides before hand. im just guessing and want to see if im learning anything here bad inner bushing? thanks again for helping
Could the spring cause the sheaves to close in due to the added length and pressure?
put your clutch back on sled, install belt like normal. Push the belt towards the outside of the clutch up against the sheave, then take feeler gauges and stick them in between the belt and the non moveable sheave(inside sheave) till you just have light drag, whats that clearance?
then check your other sled and see what it has.

Guess im not learning lol get back to u tonight after work thanks
the sled with the hc (problem one) was .012 my other srx was greater than .026 my father in laws was .023 I put my stock one back on and that one is .023 I pushed the belt to the outer sheave and slid the gauges in the front on the inside sheave to the belt hope this is what u needed
did you use the same belt on the sleds you check?, what your saying is its tighter so if thats the case the engagement would be lower because it would touch the belt sooner, try the same belt and check another sled.
well thats too tight so something wrong with the clutch but thats not whats making the engagement high either it would be lower, the closer it is. I dont know what you have going on there.
You need around .020" side clearance.
