THE PERFECT FIT
IQ Front Suspension Adjustments
Independent Front Suspension (IFS)
Break in the suspension for approximately 150 miles (240 km) before
making any fine-tuning adjustments.
Settings will vary from rider to rider, depending on rider weight, vehicle
speed, riding style, and trail conditions. We recommend starting with
factory settings and then customizing each adjustment individually to
suit rider preference. The snowmobile should be methodically tested,
one change at a time, under the same conditions (trail and snow condi-
tions, vehicle speed, riding position, etc.) after each adjustment until the
best ride is achieved.
IFS Components
1. Skis
2. Front shocks and springs
3. Rod ends
4. A-arms
IFS Adjustment Options
• Front shock spring preload
• Optional springs
• Toe (ski alignment) (see page 106)
• Camber (see your dealer)
Front Shock Spring Preload
The factory preload setting should be appropriate for most riders and
conditions. Please see your POLARIS dealer for assistance before
attempting to adjust preload.
Increasing the spring preload too much may adversely affect the han-
dling of the snowmobile and the performance of the rear suspension.
Decreasing the spring preload too much may allow the lower spring
retainer to fall off.
