Tech Tip: Adjusting Preload on Front Shocks

When you are adding preload to a dual rate or triple rate Exit shock, it is going to be very sensitive.  Each one of the adjustment groove locations is about one hundred thousandths of an inch.  By adjusting the clip two positions, you can make a huge difference in the overall bottoming resistance and your roll stability.  Find out more below:

A key with preload adjustment is making sure to do it out on the trail so that you can get a true assessment of the suspension in real terrain.  The best trails to test them on are ones with a substantial amount of bumps and whoops to truly test the travel on your shocks.

You will want to take the snowmobile down the trail initially to get a feel for where the shock setting currently is.  Identify if they are set to strongly or softly.  Make small adjustments depending on your desired outcome.  Then take the snowmobile back down that same trail to feel the difference.
