Alpha turbo 154 suspension setup.

[nm2708]

Need help with suspension setup to keep the front end down. Locking out the rear shock is not enough

165” best option

Adjust your front skid shock to lower pressure, and maybe 150 psi in the rear.

Application: Arctic Cat Ascender 18-2020 (Does NOT fit Alpha) Finally, a simple bolt on coupling device for boosted Arcitc Cats Simple effective and priced right. Simply turn the blocks to a new position to go from NO coupling (Stock) to the available 3 positions. Billet assembly bolts on in...

Maybe this will help.

You could try putting the rear skid in the bottom hole. Will give a little more ski pressure. Would be hesitant to take air pressure out of FTS as you do not want to bottom that shock out.

You can fix it to some degree, but thats kind of what a turbo and horsepower will do

Get a coupled suspension. KMOD or similar.

your either going to turn your boost down, or go with a longer track which will help a bit, being an alpha if you want to keep it one you'd go to the 165", OR just accept it otherwise you'd be going back to a twin rail. The skid on the sled already does a nice job keeping the front end down, You'll want your rear shock to be on the stiffer side to reduce the skid collapse. stock these sleds will wheelie already due to the traction and power, now you add more power your only going to wheelie more and easier.

I ran my old pro rmk at 5# boost on a 174 and it would lift that front end up pretty easy. Even the yami's running 300+ HP with how heavy up front they are they will walk them ski's skybound on the hillside in a hurry on a 174.

Shorten limiter strap.

Was told there is a better after market shock option coming in January. Claiming will fix a lot of issues for some guys.

Which company?

I don't have a turbo but my 153" Proclimb still really wanted to come over backward on steep climbs.
I added the Z Brothers KISS coupling bracket as shown above:

I have it adjusted so my front end remains lively but, the KISS bracket stops the sled from coming over backward on a climb.
This concept works and it can be added to any mountain sled.

title of thread states alpha, coupling systems like this only work on twin rails

Good Point! Yes, that would be true!
