Rear Suspension Condition
Visually inspect all suspension components including slider
shoes, springs, wheels, etc.
Note: During normal driving, snow will act as a lubricant and
coolant for the slider shoes. Extensive riding on ice or sanded
snow, will create excessive heat build-up and cause premature
slider shoe wear.

Inspect stopper straps for wear and cracks, bolt and nut for
tightness. If loose inspect holes for deformation. Replace as
required. Tighten nut to specification.
