Awesome. I just picked up a krx Tuesday and was wondering where to set. Going from a. X3 I’m loving the kx4 so much better. Thanks bud. Mountain riding over here in Arkansas is all we do.
Just did this setting in southwest Colorado. I like it. Thanks for sharing
I ride all-mountain mostly in Colorado or Oregon A lot of technical stuff, I'm setting both my front and rear at 4 and tire pressure at 6 psi, it's a soft sticky grip. works great at slow speeds. Seams to be real nice on boulders. I love this KRX, I've owned a canned ham and a RX1 rzr, this kawasaki is by far the toughest.
LMAO @ canned ham. That's funny right there.
Here at Epic 4x4 Adventures, we are running full soft front and rear on our KRX rental fleet here in Moab. Like you, we are under 30 mph 95 % of the time that we are on the trail. Of course we are all about the rock climbing abilities of the KRX1000. The soft suspension settings, combined with 35 inch tires with 7 to 8 psi makes for a pretty amazing ride , plus good articulation through Red Rock country. And thats with the sawy bars still connected.
That is awesome to hear! You guys have some sweet rigs for sure!
Joe Riley what brand of tire did you use when you increased it to 35 inch tall and was there anything else you had to do with the clutches?
Joe that's awesome. I am just coming out of a 2020 canned ham x rc because I see so many benefits in the KRX which I just bought yesterday. So when it comes to running 35's, what offset are you going, is it still 5-2? And did you do any clutch work or is there anything I need to do to run 35's? I am mainly a rock guy.
We ride a lot of very rocky trails in the Ozarks. 7-13 mph. I moved the mid collar up 1/2” to stay on the soft spring longer and am 2 clicks from full soft front and rear.
Wayne Engen When you did this adjustment did it cause the machine to lower down that half inch, reducing your clearance?
Douglas Lando no it didn’t change ride height because we didn’t change the spring tension. Just where the big spring takes over.
Wayne Engen so this will compress the top short spring (softer spring)
@@douglaslando6341 no it does not compress anything.
The shock settings I settled on for my KRX is Minus 3 up front and Minus 4 in the rear. That's clicks down (counter clockwise) from the factory settings. FYI from the factory, the front is in the middle -- 12 clicks out of 24. On the rear, the stock setting is at 6 out of 24 and I'm down to 2. So I run the front a bit stiffer than you (it helps with turning on faster trails), but we run the same setting in the rear.
My riding style is fairly fast -- when I can, I tend to haul ass. But that's only when it's not super rocky because I've broken one wheel and bent another. Otherwise, I love playing in the slow, technical stuff. I really want to move to Utah if I can find decent-paying work up there.
Thank you for sharing! I'll give your settings a try!
thanks for the video !! i was worries to adjust and mess up factory ride
* what can you tell us about front alignment ? just looking at it mine looks off
Great informative video. I have been doing a lot of mountain riding with my KRX. Thanks for the advice on shock adjustment. On a somewhat related subject, my machine has developed a lot of squeaking in the suspension. Front and Rear. Is there anything that can be done to fix this?
People are greasing their bushings or replacing them
would you ever adjust the spring as well! or just the shock dial
Also i’ve added a lot of weight . front rear bumpers, roof , windshield , spare tire and gas shock tire mount , nerf bars .. would this change your recommendation of sertings
Thanks for the info I bought a 2021 trail edition recently. I also live in utah and have not had a chance to get up into the mountains yet.
So did u run in high. Or low? I just got a 2024. And low is low
High range for "most" trail riding. Low rang for rock crawling, Moab, loading it on a trailer or pulling a buddy's RZR back to camp. 😎
What tire pressure are you running with the 7 and 2 click setting?
Did you have to adjust the springs?
awesome
Thank you!
Probably a dumb question but did you bring your cat riding with you in the background at 2:01?
Haha! That's funny you saw her! It is actually a dog:)
Jared, what are you doing about the noise that I hear the clicking noise that I believe is from the unloading of the shock. I’ve noticed on the forms people are just in the crossover.
Hi Doug! I have not experienced that nor have I had any customers mention it. Have you noticed it happening on yours?
Douglas Lando Very we’ll known problem...
@@BIGPINESPORTSUT yeah man is real clicky it started on the right front shock and on my last ride it was doing in the rear also
Are you sure it’s not the bypasses clicking. That’s normal for a bypass shock.
🇺🇸
I just bought a 2020 trails and rocks rzr it has the Walker Evans shocks You think it's pretty much the same settings? I just ride trails 20 25 miles an hour
We are unsure on that. You will need to play around with them to get the best settings for you. Thank you! Let us know what you ended up setting them to. :)
@@BIGPINESPORTSUT I ended up with 2 up from the softest setting
I’m having high pitched squeaking chirping noises coming out of the front wheels. Any idea?
Dirt in the caliper. High pressure water... Clean them out really good!
