THE PERFECT FIT

IQ Rear Suspension Adjustments

Torsion Spring Preload

To adjust rear torsion spring preload, rotate the three-position cam using

the engine spark plug tool. Adjustment is easiest when the cam is

rotated from low to medium, and then to high. Rotating directly from

low to high will require significantly more effort.
Different rate torsion springs are available if a firmer ride is desired. See

your dealer for more information.

Suspension Coupling

On all Polaris snowmobile rear suspensions, there are two torque arms

that control the movement of the rail beam. Prior to the advent of sus-

pension coupling, these torque arms could move independently of each

other. Rear suspension coupling links the movement of the front and

rear torque arms to each other. There are two types of rear suspension

coupling.

Soft

Medium

Firm
