I have the mt tamer 154 on my xp now for now 2years. I found that the sixth hole on the limiter strap had little to none for ski lift, great when climbing hills all day but not the best boondocking so I got the straps let all the way out. Still there is not near as much ski lift to the stock skid and still climbs without a ton of lift.
Also I did break off the rear drop brackets too with this skid too, but there are people even breaking them with the stock skid too.
The first season with the stock set up floats for the mt tamer IMO they rode terrible very stiff I tried many different air pressures either it be way too soft or way too stiff at the beginning of the travel, i'd still bottom out, and the rebound I found too slow, all for my agressive riding style liking, maybe cause of the regular float shock.
Now I have revalved those shocks so the rebound is a little faster and worked on the compression shim stack, added a nextech ressy on the rear shock. A complete world of differance. Now it soaks up the bumps feels way nicer droping and taking jumps, bottoms out way less. I 48psi in the front track shock and 120 in the rear, as before I had 55 in the front and 150 in the rear. I like the skid but the shocks are lacking, maybe with the new floatx shock they ride better. Mine is the 08 setup with the update kit on it.
