Hey guys amazing video! I recently purchased a 23 scrambler 1000s. Absolutely amazing. However just to be sure I’am I getting the best results out of the shocks, how would you recommend I adjust from the factory settings ? The payload for the ATV is 290 and I would say with my weight (230) plus accessories including gear, I’m currently sitting at around 270. Would love to hear your thoughts
I have a 2021 Can Am Maverick X3 RS Turbo RR that I want to adjust for rocky trails to hard pack dirt. What should my adjustments be? Also what psi should I run my tires at.
Hey guys! I apologize if this question has already been asked in a previous stream, but I'm looking to get into a 4 seater UTV coming up here soon. Would you recommend the X3 Maxx with Smartshox, Polaris Turbo S, Polaris Pro XP, or should I wait for what Polaris is rumored to come out with in January? I'm out of Vegas so most of my riding will be in desert or dunes. I plan to keep the car for at least 3-4 years and doing a pretty good amount of modifications to whichever one I get, most importantly the full RIS Gold package from you guys. Do you think the new Polaris release will be worth the wait VS potentially having a fully worked X3/Turbo S/Pro XP by time I could get my hands on the new release? Thanks!
For high speed desert I would go Max or XP pro. You need to sit in them and decide according to what fits you well. Performance wise they are going to be great. I can't wait to see the Pro R hopefully in January. I would wait if you can. I am.
I found this video trying to understand why my 08 grand Cherokee blows through its front strut travel on whoops and some drop offs on trails. I love the technical aspect and have subscribed! I have 1 year old bilsteins with the original springs. I’m thinking of fabricating mounts to run adjustable Rancho shocks parallel to the front struts. At what point should spring rate be increased?
I know it’s old but I’d be interested in some info about a xp 900 suspension. I’m not ready to buy a new ride yet. I don’t think I even have rebound on my shocks but I was told that someone valved it.
question on RS1 with your spring upgrade for trail riding if it was your money would the next step upgrade be do your internal upgrade or spend extra money and go to the fox RC2 shocks?
If you drive slower, relaxed and chill then do the internal work. If your aggressive then go RC 2. If you drive hard and or jump the factory 2” walkers are not enough. 👍
Took my ‘21 x3 Max Smartshox to get calibrated. (Suspensión fault) I’m doubting they know what they are doing. Guy tells me they have to remove each shock and calibrate them with a “special tool”. Should I be worried?
Hey fellas, love the posts. I have a 2020 YXZ XT-R with the Fox RC2 shocks. I ride mainly moderate to rough trails (Hatfield & McCoy). What should I start my HS/LS compression and Rebound at? Also with rebound, the more rebound the slower the kick back is? Any and all info is appreciated
Hi, I’m from Brazil, and we would love to be a client of Shock Therapy. In this video you talked about standard suspension. In my Pro Xp I just have 3 setups ( comfort, sport and firm). How can I use it from slow to high speed in the terrain smooth to rough? Tks!!!
Hello from Brazil. It’s easy. The stiffer you run your system the slower the compression will be. Soft, medium and hard are the same as stiffening a compression adjuster without the hassle of getting out of the car.
You prolly dont give a shit but does anyone know of a tool to log back into an instagram account?? I was stupid forgot my login password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.
@Ashton Alfonso Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and im in the hacking process atm. Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Only once your tire pressure is set and compression adjustments don’t prevent you from bottoming out. Lower the X over 1/2” at a time and re adjust compression. You have gone too far with X over once the UTV starts to pic up a rear buck that can’t be stopped with a few clicks of rebound.
Trails should be on the soft side. All the way soft on high speed. Two turns on low speed. Front rebound 6 clicks. Rear rebound 8 clicks. Put more high speed in if you can bottom it out too much.
Typically colder temps make the shocks act stiffer. Warmer temps and they act softer. If the shock itself overheats grime use it will act soft then it will become super stuff in the small chop while still bottoming out in the big hits.
