rear skid shock revalving; worth it?

[Seabass152]

Having clickers on the shocks is really useful. I mainly fiddle with the front clickers after I get the rear dialed in. I think the revalve is essential to get you in the ball park too. When the snow is deep and heavy I add 3-4 clicks to the compression damping to get the sled to really carve and not just lay over on it's side. On the less deep days or working though the tight trees my Pro seemed to work best on full soft. But at the end of the day it was also nice to add some clicks for the ride out. Offer is still open if anyone wants to trade their excellent condition stock pro shocks off a 12 and $500 for my Holz revalved remote resi shocks that only have 400 miles on them, perfect condition. I am going with Evol Xs up front and a Toms skid with Foxes on the back.

Nice

I put on the big boy shock and am revolving this fall. 2000 miles in deep AK snow last year and I still bottomed out a few times.

At Hamilton Polaris KTM we revalve the shocks to personal applications with good results...we have a great oil that has proven to be beneficial as the first step in suspension improvement (front and rear)...

Washington. Tom gave me a call late Friday that I missed, will know the details on Tuesday. He has the specs for the front shocks, they are shorter and have a little less internal travel stock and he is making up Foxes to match this. I am going with the X's on the front. I really like the extra adjustment of the X's. You get separate low and high speed compression and a rebound adjustment. With the main and EVOL chambers you have five separate adjustments to tune them in. I also like the progressive nature of the air spring. Something that is very hard to do well with a steel spring(although Raptor has a nice spring setup for the Pro and they are cheap, I mean inexpensive).
