THE PERFECT FIT

IQ Rear Suspension Adjustments

Suspension Coupling

On all Polaris snowmobile rear suspensions, there are two torque arms

that control the movement of the rail beam. Prior to the advent of sus-

pension coupling, these torque arms could move independently of each

other. Rear suspension coupling links the movement of the front and

rear torque arms to each other. There are two types of rear suspension

coupling.

Front To Rear Coupling and the Front Rear Scissor Stop

(FRSS)

The front rear scissor stop (FRSS) couples the movement of the front

torque arm with the rear torque arm and limits the amount of indepen-

dence between the movement of the front torque arm and the rear torque

arm.

When hitting a bump, the front torque arm starts to compress. The

FRSS links that movement to the rear torque arm, causing it to compress

and raise the rear suspension up as one, allowing the suspension to hit

the bump only once and reducing kickback.

The factory setting is usually adequate for all riders and conditions.
