THE PERFECT FIT

Rear Suspension Adjustments

Shock Compression Damping

Some snowmobiles are equipped with the Indy Select rear shock, which

allows for adjustments to the compression valving by turning the adjust-

ment screw located near the base of the shock.

Locate the adjustment screw near the base of the shock. In half-turn

increments, turn the screw clockwise to increase compression valving

and stiffen the ride, or counterclockwise to reduce compression and

soften the ride. There are approximately three full turns of adjustment

available.

If bottoming continues after the screw has been turned fully clockwise,

the torsion spring should be adjusted (see page 113). Return the screw to

its original starting position after the torsion spring has been tightened.

Optional Coil Springs

Different rate coil springs are available for some shocks if a firmer ride

is desired. Contact your dealer for more information.
