Default Anyone ever run paddles on a Wolverine?

I just tried out my 08' 450 Wolverine with a set of Scat Track paddles on the rear,and had pretty dismal results.I took it to Dumont last week,and found it rode really,really rough and bouncy.So rough it actually broke a weld on my CMP rear rack!I tried it with the stock tires,(Maxi's),and it climbed the dunes just as well,with less vibration.Has anyone had a problem like this?I was wondering if the independent rear suspension could be a contributer to this.Do you need to adjust your rear suspension?I rode a buddies Raptor with paddles,and didn't have any problems.Thanks

The Wolverine has IRS ??????? I have tried to keep up with all the new models, but I have not heard of that option available on the Wolverine, unless I missed something.

This wolverine is not an IRS machine. I was a little confused by this comment as well. Are you sure you have a wolverine?

I have not tried to run paddles on any of my 4x4's on sand. I never felt the need to as they do very well on my mudlites.
