We need a little more info on what your riding as well as what type of riding you do and what you want the sled to do and what it's doing
Sorry about that...yes you do need to know that.....2010 M8...stock, deep powder and some trail but mostly off trail having fun in the snow...1st year with this kind of sled and have not had it out yet so any heads up is great
I'd go limiters out all the way, front track spring soft as it will go without the spring keeper falling off, then fairly stiff in the rear. I run about 135psi in the rear float on my proclimb, not sure if the m-series will require much difference in set up or not.
That's it....just one reply on setup.....heard so much about how helpful the guys at snowest are ....so now beginning to
....thanks Vern

There are lots of ways to set it up but advice from a 150 pounder and a 300 pound guy will vary quite a bit. What length track? Do you know of any valve work? Generally speaking 70 psi in left ski shock, 65-67 in right ski shock. Front skid limiters out and maybe three turns of the nut after touching spring, rear 135 psi. This will all vary depending on your size, track length, and if you mainly hill climb or boondock. Personally I re-valved my shocks and did the geo mod. Lowered my front skid mounting hole and lowered my rear shock pressure. Gets up on the snow better but also makes it a little light in the front on steep climbs.
