im a little heavier then you"cough cough" but i tend to run 175 in the float and stock preload on the fox zero. in simple terms the as the rear of sled raises it put more ski pressure down, i have heard of people this year tightening their limiter straps one set of notches. again to aid in less ski lift and more ski pressure. i also have move the rear drop bracket bolt to the bottom setting. i find it helps to keep the skis closer to the ground when im on the pipe going through the trees. hope this helps. plus i only run 85 psi in the front floats.

I installed the Rasmussen steering upgrade. It's worth the effort to install it. They send a link to a video of the install when I bought mine.

I installed the rasmussen piece. Works great and i also installed SLP powder pro skies on my 153" 800. The improvement in powder snow is remarkable! Definitely worth it. It got a little bit harder to steer on hard surface,but you will get used to it. A little "workout" for your underarms ;) Sorry for my english,im from Norway :)
