We have an XLT SP with x12 suspension and an XLT SKS with 136 x10 suspension. The x12 is a boat anchor in anything more than a foot of snow. This summer I'm going to long track both of them to 144. Optimally, I would like to find a couple of Edge 144 skids. If I only buy one skid, I'll just put 136-144 extensions on the x10. I might even replace the x12 with a 136 skid and put extension on that one too.
I was just reading a thread about coupled vs uncoupled suspensions. Is it accurate to say that an uncoupled suspension is better for deep snow than a coupled suspension (since the angle of the skid can change to conform to the ground better)?
I was just reading that an Edge 136 suspension is coupled, and you have to get a 144 to get an uncoupled Edge suspension? Is a 136 xtra lite suspension uncoupled? What about a 136 Pro X? Would a 136 xtra 10 suspension work better in deep snow than a 136 Edge since the xtra 10 is uncoupled and the Edge is coupled?
What suspension would work the best in a wedge chassis for fairly deep snow? I'll be using 8 tooth drivers with 1.75 track. I don't want to try to high mark any big hills, I just want to be able to go off trail and be able to trudge through some fairly deep snow.
