telescopic steering slop fix???

akmodshop on here makes a good tunnel support.....that with bdx anti slop works well.....the best option to go with is a whole new post with a riser setup....the adjustables are garbage i tell ya!!!! GARBAGE!!!!!!!!

There is no fix, the tolerances are just bigger than they should be (but if they were tighter, it would take VERY little for it to sieze).

The best "fix" I have come up with is a healthy dose of grease, this does three things: #1, it provides a "cushion" which makes the bars feel less clunky (what you're looking for, to an extent). #2, it allows the adjustment to slide smoother. #3, it takes up space that snow will try to work into if you roll the sled, and this will keep the snow from melting then freezing & keeping the post from sticking.

When I used to roll my sled I'd drop the bars to decrease the force on the bulkhead & the post, then later I'd pull them back up. If I didn't remember to do it right away they wouldn't move. Once I greased the pizz out of the adjuster it felt better & this problem stopped.


Still doesn't fix the "garbage-ness" of the post... but that's what I got for ya!

Edit,

btw, rox & fly both make adjustable risers that you can use to have a good post, AND still retain that adjust-ability that you like.

I tried a tall riser on my setup, and now I'm going to an adj riser, so I can be high for jumping, but drop it a bit for technical stuff.





After you sell that adj post to some sucker from SW who wants it (johnmaster... you readin this??? ) you're really not spending much at all to upgrade to a MUCH tougher setup that's also lighter.

post slop

I have BDX anti slop also, it helped a bunch but mine also has about a inch of play. It's a pain, but i say if it isn't broke don't fix it,, i'm dealing with it and when it craps the bed i'll do it up right. don't let it take away from your fun. guzzy a cold one and say fk it
