Last video mentions revised rear suspension geometry but somewhere else on this forum I read that the old fox shocks will fit as they have the same shock length. I am wondering how does it work?

The only thing different in the rear skid this year is the aluminum lower front track shock shaft and the new sliders.

Yes. Its not a Polaris video, its from an independent source doing a review. I believe they got mixed up in what they were referring to.

Polaris on there websites talk about revised geometry and an 850 only skid seems no one has any info on this.

Yep.... User/Dealer type video with mistaken information.

The rear skid, for all 2019 ProRmk's, has the same geometry as all axys according to Polaris Corporate and the Engineers.

So the information on Polaris website is also incorrect? It says new geometry on my 19 850 sled only. IMO they need to get the correct info for us if we are snowchecking starting to lose faith in them.

Thanks MH for all the info. I was just told that due to front end change is where the new geometry info comes from. On Polaris website go to snowmobile and click on pro rmk axys info and changes are listed there takes me to long to post pics.

Ok...I see where it says new FRONT geometry... which makes sense, they narrowed the front by 3" ... and a new rear shock shaft...


http://www.polaris.com/en-us/snowmobiles/rmk

All-new AXYS® RMK® React™ Front Suspension provides riders with the most precise and effortless ride in the deep snow. Effortlessly initiate sidehills and experience less fatigue with the most predictable ride. This new front suspension features:

• All-new geometry with an adjustable 36"-38" stance
• A sway bar designed for predictable handling
• All-new forged A-Arms and forged spindles are optimized for strength and durability and designed specifically for the new React™ Front Suspension

Click to expand...

"Optimized geometry"... which Polaris has claimed since AXYS-RMK's came out.

RMK® REAR SUSPENSION
The lightweight, rigid AXYS® RMK® React™ Rear Suspension design features optimized geometry to control pitch, resulting in: improved weight transfer, better control, and a more compliant ride. NEW for 2019 on select models: new lightweight technology and components, including an all new front track shock shaft which is 0.5 pounds lighter and all new, patent-pending hyfax design optimized for lighter weight (.5 pounds) while maintaining durability. Available on the 2019 850 PRO-RMK® only.
