rear suspension advice

[SidewaysInto3rd]

Got a set of Elka stage 4 in my skid and also put in the HD springs

Can't quite get comfortable on it .. mind you I know absolutely nothing about suspension setup. Feels like its harder to initiate a turn than my T3 and keeps wanting to flop back over

Do you run the HD rear springs ? What rider weight are they sprung for

Would you run them with elkas ? I'm about 190 + gear .. not a big jumper .. just wanted better skid control

No experience w/ the HD rear springs, but I did add a fox 1.5 zero C (compression adjustable piggyback) rear shock and Float 3 Evol r for front track shock. I have my rear compression set pretty firm and am using stock torsion springs set on 3. Skis seem to stay pretty planted on my 165 3". I weigh about 25 lbs more than you, plus have a tunnel bag.

What changes have you made to the front shocks?

No changes. Waiting for elka to release their shocks.

On my T3 I had stock shocks with hd front and torsion springs, no sway bar and I was pretty comfortable.

Since there is no hd front spring I'll just see about upgrading the whole front suspension.

I put my stock torsion springs back in tonight. Will ride tomorrow and see if that was the answer.

Much happier with the stock torsion springs.

And yes, have a set of front elkas coming in the mail!
