Hi,
i bought a used 99 srx last year and just had it serviced. The rear end sits very low, compared to my other sled (97 skidoo mxz) and has almost no travel when a rider sits on the seat. from what i can gather, i beleive i want both the rear end to sit higher and also provide a little bit of give. i cannot figure out how to do both of these things while adjusting the springs. i think the rear spring is already maxed out on preload since there is virtually no give in the seat, yet, the seat itself, remains sitting low. also if i lift the sled up from the rear the track will fall slightly (maybe 1"), and then back up into position when it is placed on the ground under its own weight. is there a limited strap i need to adjust?
a little more info: i was told the strap was completely "loose" by the dealer which in turn cracked my w-arm which has been replaced. he found this when i asked him to adjust the suspension to standard settings for a 200lb rider. however when i got the sled back the seat seems to be in the same position. did he forget to adjust it? or do these sleds just sit very low?
