Best way to get rid of coil springs in rear suspension?

[skegpro]

I have the ace kit in my 174 but it's different than most ace kits - ordered from powerhouse customs in revvy - I have a pic in the show your xm thread near last page

I am not a climate scientist but I am pretty sure that is a Baker rig??????

And what is this TSS center mount you are talking about?

I'm not sure if it is a racers edge rear arm but probably because the drop bracket stiffeners say racers edge on them - I just know that the setup is Super Deadly - it's like a mix of cr's m-10 skid and cr racing - I would post another pic on here of it but I can't do it from my phone I have to shrink down the pics on my laptop before I post them because they are to big - I seen other ace kits at the sled show in Edmonton and none of em even compare to this setup

I got one for sell, Baker rear shock if anyone is interested

 

[The Kickass One]

Front Fox 1.5 Zero Pro QS3
Center Fox 1.5 Zero Pro QS3
Rear Fox Float 3 Evol with titanium brackets and carbon fiber push rods.



What air pressure and final setup for all shocks? I just ordered practically the same set-up

Got out for a few days during the last storm cycle in Revy and wow was I ever impressed with that Nextech rear shock.

I had lots of people try to talk me out of going with the air shock in the rear but so far I am glad I didn't listen lol.

The sled climbs exponentially better, ski lift is greatly reduced, controllable with out sacrificing playability and no increase in ski pressure. And the shock valving is on point, very plush.

The fronts and the middle shock performed as expected.
The QS3 is really neat, glad I got that instead of the stage 5s cause weather I realized it or not at the time, buddies definitely will not wait for you to count clicks on a pow day.

Ran 2or 3 on the trail, depending on conditions.
And ran 1 or 2 in the Alpine depending on conditions.

Rebound was set a little fast from factory but once I turned that down a couple clicks it was supper plush and ate moguls.

any report with how the fox shock in the rear is holding up? just curious cause every set of floats that ive ever had, or seen usually required pumping back up like 7 times a day because it would loose its pressure and sag rite out. Im curious if you have to do the same or not?

Hey sorry just saw this, I've got about 1500km on this setup so far this winter.

Checked the air pressure a couple times but it was always in spec. Set and forget.

Really happy with this setup, dropped a bunch of weight, soaks up moguls, climbs a million times better and gets up on top of the snow way better.

But do not put this rear shock on if you want to ride around with skis around your ears all the time, cause you can't do that anymore.

Steep climbs the skis will come off the snow 3" ish inches and just hang there.

I am running 135 lbs.
What are you running?

What's that rear setup worth now?
I've finally got a few hundred clicks on my 174 and I love it but reading this makes a guy wonder...
Not sure if it's a big deal for me anyways. I weigh 155 lbs with all my gear and avy pack lol

I am 165lbs without gear for reference.
Can't remember what I paid but you can check the prices on the Nextech/carbonsled website.

If you do one at a time, do the rear first. Best bang for your buck and you also get rid of those ****ty torsion springs.

No more sag.

 

[AaronQ]

Ya the fronts don't really seem all that bad.
Does it help allow the t motion to flex better? What's it cost?

Yeah it really enables the tmotion.
It was about $1000 for the rear with all the titanium brackets and carbon fiber push rods.

ZBroz has a coil option that is supposed to be pretty good and is a bit cheaper.

I'll have to look into it. Would probably clip a little weight off to I would suspect eh

I never did weigh the rear torsions springs but I would bet I dropped 10-12 lbs

 

[skegpro]

Well check this out.
More torsion spring delete options.
