Default 08 Arctic Cat 500 Suspention Issues??

Hey there , im new to this site and was pointed in yous direction for some help with my suspention issues. As the title reads, my stock suspention is so stiff its not even funny. Ive tried a few things,Ive up sized my tires,run beetween 2-5 psi, set shocks on softest setting,and I weigh 200 lbs, its fine at high speed,but when Im hunting and just cruizin I get bounced all over the place. Anybody have any advise on this problem??
Thanx Gene Lasker

Not alot you can do...aside from ordering some 08 thundercat ride in springs. They are alittle shorter and ride a bit better..Aside from that you can go buy some aftermarket shocks from works or fox. There is also a guy on arctic chat .com that makes a flex bracket for the front that makes it ride 100 percent better. I have one and love it. Pm ricktherocket over there

I would check ebay first, then highlifter . com and see if any of the cat boys over there are selling some (they like to swap them out for the normals because they want more gc) so you may get lucky with that.


Or call up countrycat . net and see if they have any used ones, if not they can order you new ones.
