Way too soft in the center shock, thiking about a sno pro spring. Should I revalve as well or just try the spring first?

If you are going to do just that shock, you can get away with not revalving it. Chances are you will never realize it being off in valving. To do it properly, you prolly should though to keep things under tighter control. Now that shock is a straight valve change between the standard and sno pro. everything will cross right over. You get into the rear skid shock and they are totally different.

Thanks! I'm going to try just the SP spring first and try it. Tey say the valving is slow stock, so putting in a heavier spring should speed it up IMO. So hopefully I can kill two birds. Now what to do with the front springs? Since the SP's are air, does AC offer a stiffer ft shock spring?

Throw the spring off an 03/04 Sno Pro F7 on there.

That's an idea......I'm going to get out the microfiche and see if lists spring pound rates on the description. It did on the rear springs I researched.

The Springs I listed are 110# single rate springs. Not sure what your stock ones are. I'd have to look that up.
