Congrats @SHOOT2KILL , on the retirement.
I did that a few years ago, but I wasn't very good at that job. I'm probably doing more now with "other" stuff. I guess the biggest difference is the ability to schedule down time. I just need to figure out how to quit filling the down time with "other" stuff.
I did pick up a new to me sled, so I guess that's new. Funny thing, it's never been started so I'm going to be burning paint anyhow.

ordered snow-tracker aggressives yesterday, supposed to arrive on the 14th, now I just have to get at my trailer. Any suggestions of set up or just follow their instructions, not sure if maybe you tweaked set up at all. However, you ride Doo, I'm a Cat guy so I'm sure chassis handle differently but sometimes talking to someone who has used them there may be a better set-up. Whitedust too has stressed to me to follow set up instructions, going to let me use his sled lift.

I follow the instructions except for changing limiter strap. I bring my sleds to a guy who specializes in suspension setup and let him set the strap where he needs to in order to get the desired settings. So strap is set for suspension purposes and not necessarily for snow trackers. Main thing is make sure skis are parallel. That I always do
Brian we can mess with it on the trail but I would concentrate on center shock settings prolly harden up get pressure off skis try for full travel with limiter strap then soften center shock until you have eliminated all push. Darren talking about zero toe in when he refers to parallel skis. Darting should be eliminated at any setting unless way too much pressure on skis. Darren has a guy that tweaks shock and suspensions but unfortunately in Canada

Yes.
I can share some interesting ideas on center shock with you both at our lunch. My guy likes almost zero preload on that shock. That goes against most if not all the manufacturers but the results are impressive when he sets up the sled the way he thinks is best. Noticeable difference.
