Bent my square springs in the rear suspension. '15 T3 163

[Meyersnow]

Anyone ever bend these springs? I was adjusting my suspension and notices that the square spring on the left hand side was tweaked sideways and rubbing into the wheel assembly that it bumps up against.

Do they sell stiffer rear square springs? Has anyone ever bent them back?

What does a ski-doo warranty cover?

Pictures. Sounds like the retainer is gone/slipped. I would really be surprised if the springs were bent.

They do sell stiffer springs, I run them, but you have a different issue.

I've seen them bend and even break, skidoo makes stiffer springs. If you got the cash go for new rear shocks and ditch the torsion springs all together.

Will post pics when I get a chance. This slam sent me to the hospital. Landed way too flat.

What do you suggest for rear shock? Fox doesn't offer anything.

I'm running Nextech fox float conversion (Canadian company so great price with the exchange right now if your in the US), very happy with it. The raptor xm-ace kit would be your best option if you want coil over shocks, price is quite a bit more.

Now with Pics.

Hey Guys,

Here's what I'm working with. Anyone ever bend these back? The replacement piece is only 65 bucks, but I'm thinking about taking my suspension to the next level, so suggestions are welcome. No clue how I did this. TIA.

I know this is a super old post but I did the same thing, did you just replace it? Also, did you have any alignment issues with your track when it happened? Thanks

Just replaced them with new ones. No issues.
