Don't mess with the limiter and put the Z Motion rear link in , it des exactly as advertised, but is still playful and lets you lift the nose if you want and need to. Also stiffen up the rear spring. At 240 in gear with pack I can just get away with the stock springs at max with this setup
I would sure like to here more feedback from this bracket. Sounds like what I need for my sled. I love the way you can get the front up, but its a handful while climbing. Is this the answer or do I need to lock out the Tmotion too?
i've been riding 25 years and never learned to set up the suspension on my sleds. usually just crank the shocks and springs all the way up and ride.
past ski doos with a tunnel full of ice and me start saging down. i had 2 up springs on my last sled and that helped.

T motion Lockout has nothing to do with ski lift at all.
Ski lift is all in suspension geometry and set up.
Propert dampened shocks help a to.

Yes the lock out will slow the nimble side to side capability of the sled a bit , make it more of a strait line / stable sled that way. It will have no impact at all in ski lift ,only side to side.

Just installed zmotion rear link and tmotion lockout washers. Not enough snow to test. G4 does wheelie to much in stock setup. Hampers sleds abilities. Also don' care for tmotion. Makes sled to unpredictable.

Also would add ZRP makes quality products at a good price
Keep us posted if you get a good ride in. Also did you have to drill new holes for the link?

Here in western Montana we just do not have enough snow yet. You have to drill new holes but you use the rail stiffeners holes for a template. Not to hard. If you are installing zmotion bracket it is easy to add lockout washers while you have it apart. It helps to CAREFULLY release tension from torsion springs and supports under rear bumper for install. Release tension by removing bolts holding torsion springs to rails. Job took me about 2 hours but I am slow.

My limiter strap has never left stock hole. I can tell my rear end feels firmer just pushing down on rear bumper. No more sag.
I had a zrp link on my sled. I liked it. I had it on my 2015 2.5" 163 xm it kept the front end down extremely well. It was my low cost version of a toms emotion skid. I slso had custom valved enzo rear race shock that totally transformed the sled even.more. i swithched over to the dark side with a turbo axys this season.
