Spring with X Metal

yes umi works, but i have broken two of them. I am now running the oem with a little bend in it. Here it is but you cant see much with the breather hoses in the way.

So basically you D-cut the bottom of the pole for the cables and just run it like stock with a stock bracket, stock bolt and stock SXR spring.

What kind of bushings are those? Blowsion UMI SJ Conversion or Blowsion AC SJ Conversion?

You got it, the bushings came with the pole(XMETAL).

but i dont get it... the stock spring is designed to point back down into a hole in the pole. where is the stock spring resting on the pole?

The spring is bent and is resting on the underside of the pole.

So I think I'm gonna have some decent springage here finally. Using a trimmed 750sx spring.

Wouldn't work with the WDK bracket, but purchased an x-metal style single tube bracket and it looks like it will line up pretty well. Gonna mock up the bracket on the ski tonight to see if the bottom of the spring that over hangs the bracket will need to be cut or not.

The stock pole bolt is a little long for the x-metal bracket, but I'll just space it out with washers or something.

The spring is trimmed on the top right after where it disappears into the pole as seen in the picture. I thought i took a pic of the spring by itself, but can't find it.

Thanks Surfersmurf for the bracket and WolfChild for the spring.

Finally got the 750sx spring setup on my ski. Springs are a beautiful thing. Rode for the first time today with it and it felt perfect.

Here are some pics
