Nytro Alignment

[ruffryder]

Anyone have any problems getting an alignment done on the Nytro? I find it as hard to do as finding the leprechaun at the end of the rainbow. I get it all set up, drop the front on the ground, come back and look at it the next day, and it is off? WTF? I pretty much rebuilt the whole front end, new ball joints, oil lite bushings (huge difference as there is not play in the a-arms). So there is not slop in it at all.

Do you need to do the alignment with the skis on the ground and weight on them? I think that might be part of my problem. Just looking for other reasons, as I only have 2 for why this is such a problem.

1 - I am retarded - seriously
2 - not only am I retarded, I am also dyslexic and can't read a tape measure correctly.

Thoughts, comments, quips?

Do it with the front of the sled on the gound and weight on the skis.

Cool, that is what I was thinking, I am curious that the alignment would change depending upon the travel of the suspension... Maybe it is only at max suspension droop? I will find out tonight regardless. Thanks for the help.

Well, doing it with weight on the suspension was definitely the ticket. Sad that I have been doing it in the air my whole sledding life..... no wonder I couldn't get it aligned before.

Thanks for the help Nikolai!
