Chassis and Skid Frame Mounting Locations

The suspensions have several possible mounting loca-

tions in the slide rails and tunnel. However, Arctic Cat

recommends that when disassembling and assembling

the suspension, all stock mounting locations be used as

shown in the following illustrations.

0749-567

0747-988

CAUTION

All stock mounting locations must be used. If any alter-
ations to the skid frame are made, shock absorber and
suspension damage may occur.
