THE PERFECT FIT

M-10 Suspension

Rear Suspension Setup

1. Adjusting the Full Range Adjuster (F.R.A.)
1. Refer to the initial set-up reference chart (located under the hood of

your snowmobile and on page 64) to determine the desired F.R.A.

position.

2. To adjust, loosen the hex bolts (A) attaching the rear lower shock cross

shaft to the rail beam.

3. Using a 9/16” wrench, loosen the jam nuts (B) on the preload bolts.

4. Adjust the preload bolts (C) to the desired F.R.A. position.
5. Tighten the jam nuts (B). NOTE: Make certain the preload bolt is

contacting the slide block before tightening the jam nut.

6. Tighten the hex bolts (A) and torque to 35 ft. lbs.
NOTE: The FRA setting is the primary rear suspension adjustment. It

will have the MOST effect on the rear suspension performance.
If the M-10 is new, it will take anywhere from 25 to 200 miles to

properly break in the springs and shocks. At the time of break-in, the

suspension will get softer and may require the FRA to be re-adjusted
