FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
 
 
Here at EZRYDE, it is our goal to work with and educate our customers so that they can best enjoy the sport of snowmobiling.  Past, present, and future customers are welcome to interact with our staff to fine tune their suspension settings for their own driving style and/or conditions.  Most of the technical information needed can be found on this website.  However, satisfying individual preferences and performance expectations can only be done person to person.  We are in the process of developing the below FAQ’s.  If you have a question not covered, please contact us.  We will answer your question and add the recurring questions to our FAQ’s.

4.                  Can I keep my EZRYDE suspension when I sell my sled?

5.                  What is the weight difference between EZRYDE and my stock suspension?

 

No numbers right now but we weigh a lot less!!!

 

 

6.                  Can I install my own EZRYDE suspension?

 

The installation of your new suspension is relatively easy.  However, it is assumed that you have a general knowledge of snowmobile repair and suspensions.  Please seek assistance from a qualified OEM or aftermarket dealer if you have any concern or reservation about the installation.

 

 

7.                  What colors are available for the powder coating?

 

Red, yellow, and orange are the standard colors.  Numerous other colors are available upon request.

 

 

8.                  What is the scheduled maintenance?

 

There are two different points on the EZRYDE suspension which must be greased before operation.  There is a grease fitting located on the upper end of the swing arm and one on the lower end.  These are the only two places that need grease and should be greased every 500 miles.  Other maintenance such as hyfax, idler bearings, shock rebuilds, and fastener tightness are covered by regular inspection each ride or seasonally similar to stock suspension.  See our skid and shock rebuild information here.

 

 

9.                  How is the suspension adjusted?

 

A tuning and maintenance booklet is included with each skid to expedite the small adjustment which may be needed to suit your riding style.
