i've been told i'm supposed to have the front shocks on my 99 xc sp rebuilt after the first 500 or so miles. well, it's nearing 2500 and i haven't done anything. does anyone have any light to shed on this subject? the rear shocks are also fox, although the one is the pps shock, which i'm pretty sure requires no rebuilding. how about the other one?
With that many miles, it's time for a rebuild. You'll notice a difference. Every season or every 1000 miles is what most of us do for Fox Shocks; especially if you ride hard. I'm not sure on the PPS though. My local Polaris dealer does them for $25 apiece. Price varies.
i'd say price varies. my local dealer told me $75 apiece. when i think about it, they have faded, and are a lot softer than they used to be. it doesn't seem like they should need rebuilding time-wise, cuz i've rode the sled 2500 mi in 3 months. i'd better check into it one of these days...
wishful thinking intended! no, i bought the sled jan 2 last year, and rode until mid march. come to think of it, it's my baby's one year anniversary- good thing i took her out for a little jaunt. haha
Yea I have wondered the same question about the shocks on my XLT Special. I am not sure how long it has been since they were rebuilt but the suspension seems to be just a little softs for my tastes.

So I am building a small buggy style vehicle and I am using a two stroke Ski doo engine for it.
Never owned a snowmobile or messed with one before so I had a few questions.
Firstly, where can I find a good wiring diagram for the donor sled so that I can incorperate everything back into the...
Just curious what’s everyone riding nowadays, older members, new members doesn’t matter! How do you like it? I finally upgraded from an 02 Polaris XC 500 I’ve had for over 8 years to a 2012 Yamaha nytro mtx and wow was I shocked...
Hello there!
New forum user and new snowmobile owner here. I've bought 1998 Polaris Trail Touring. When I brought it home I noticed unexpected item attached with fishing swivel to the gas level stick. My first thought was that it was fuel pickup filter but it doesn't have a connector for the...
I have a 2004 Polaris 600 RMK vertical edge. Ran it for the past 2 winters with no problems. Recently it starts fine but then after about 10 - 15 minutes of riding it loses power, bogs down and dies. It will restart right after it dies, if I let it sit for a few mins and runs fine for a few...
