Just picked up an X3 RC RR yesterday, and will break it in this weekend. Look forward to trying this setup. Thanks for another great vid!!

[@CascadingDream]

Thank you. I just bought a new XRC RR and needed a baseline. I appreciate you taking the time to put up a video and settings, it is a big help.

[@pmutah]

You're welcome thanks for watching😎👍

[@jabbathewhats]

Thanks for the starting point. Tried it out, ended up lowering the rebound in rear to get rid of some bounce in the whoops and tightened rear HS compression and its great for my desert. Thanks for taking the time.

[@RandomRedd]

Thanks for the video!! I just picked up my 2021 canam x3 xrs turbo rr and I need to adjust my shocks as well

[@pmutah]

You're welcome thanks for watching 😎👍

[@LOOKFAST]

Love 🧡 the rc!! looks awesome with the 32" BFGs!! Looking forward to all the content!!

[@pmutah]

Thanks buddy😎👍

[@bobbarrett7748]

You could really see the difference in your videos from the first ride to you last couple. Fronts not pointed skyward on acceleration and it doesn’t massively dive on braking. Plus the chassis seems more flat in the high speed bumps. I think Matt hooked you up very well. Great video!

[@pmutah]

Thanks Bob there's definitely a big difference. I'm loving it😎👍

[@MartoriousMartuzzi]

Nicely shown video. My biggest shock when I went to do mine for the fast trails was how sloppy it felt not knowing yet all 4 corners were all over the place for settings. Guys tune these in! Even if not exact how you want get them evened up, the ride is night and day. Same with tire pressure. Once I did this and rode again I was so much more impressed and happier with dough I dropped lol

[@pmutah]

Yeah mine did not feel very good at all at high speed it was just moving around so much. once we tuned it in it felt great😎👍

[@ericmurphy1247]

Thanks for the video I just bought a 2019 x3 and haven't looked at the settings yet. I think I will use the settings in the video as a starting point.

[@crswiker1]

I am also about to pull the trigger on a 19! Would also like to know if the shocks are the same as the 19s.

[@DigitalDanAZ]

I have a 2019 XRC, wonder if they are the same...

[@Kyle-fu6en]

DigitalDanAZ The shocks may be the same model but the valving and springs are different.

Hey Brandon, thanks for the vids. What's your ride height with those settings on 32"? Thanks

[@MrMoronification]

Thanks Brandon for the info. It's helping a few people out. Wonder if he has recommendations on the CanAm rs 4 seaters

[@JR-qz3zt]

Thanks. I just got a year end 19. First ride, wow! Second ride, let's just say, I over estimated how hard I could cruise over a 3 foot berm. And, (I used to race motocross) I definitely need to get this suspension set up. Apparently, Shock therapy has suggestions. ., . Fyi

[@umadbrew]

I just got a '19 too I adjusted to the Fox race tune settings and it rode alot nicer the next time out. Low speed 3 turns High speed 4 turns Rebound 20 clicks Might eventually do springs, but the XRC seems a little stiffer than my dads XRS Max. He definitely needs springs.

[@jaimecasal9915]

Just picked up a 2020 XRC as well, are you still happy with these settings? Or did you ever up the ride height? Mine actually came with the same crossover settings as you have but I did adjust the HSC/LSC as a starting point.

[@AboveandBeyond44]

Thanks Brandon 🤙

[@pmutah]

You're welcome, and thanks for watching.😎👍

[@whuggins4]

Did you have to raise the unit off the ground to measure the spring adjustments? (take the weight off the springs?)

[@soulfastebikes7270]

Hi Branson. Are the settings the same on heavier 2020 RR max?

[@matthewc.westover2522]

Brandon on the front preload setting ,was that 3 1/4" from top of ring to the black mount or threads? Thx Matt

[@dclsxfactory7823]

Is the shock valving on the 18/19 XRC Turbo R the same? Seems like springs are a stiffer rate. Been struggling with mine a little bit, front blows through stroke to fast and back is to firm lol did he give any info on nitrogen PSI? And Whats your ride height?

[@XSteele]

Also, as far as beadlock and wheel lug torque, spec's, are they the same on the 2020 as the '18's ??? Lug nut--111 ftlbs +/-4 ftlbs Beadlock nut-- first torque 124 lbf IN +/- 9 or (converted 10.3 ftlbs) --Second torque 18 ftlbs +/- 1

[@rubenchvz]

Exelent video my friend! I'm wondering if you can send me the settings for my 2018 can am xrc its been hard to figure out :( I just want to fly lol

[@mikemurphy9953]

Soooooo....let me get this straight...you have a 24k buggy but you don't have a socket set?? Lol.... BTW.....great video, it helped a bunch with my tuning on my X3.

[@shannonsmith4986]

The 32 BFGs look great!! Do you know if the gear ratio on the XRC is the same as the XRS? Since the XRS is running 30s it seems it might have been a good idea if they haven't.

[@pmutah]

I believe the gearing is the same on both the XRS and the X RC

[@kenc3842]

Brandon, how do you like the fender flares? Worth buying? Thanks for all your posts!

[@pmutah]

Yeah I think they are I'm still going to put a set of rokblokz on to😎👍

[@rdlewin1535]

Good video. Thanks. Do we RC RR owners need to do the gusset kit and shock tower kit. Ride fast on trails. Thanks.

[@pmutah]

It's definitely a good idea. I haven't got around to gusseting mine yet but I think I probably will😎👍

[@catax1134]

Brandon I like your settings, but would you set anything different for Glamis?

[@pmutah]

Mark they should be good all around the only thing that I would adjust is the compression in the rear if you feel like your bottoming out too easy

[@schumif1champ]

What tire pressure are you running with this set up?

[@boostenmkiv]

Thanks for talking the time to go through these things. Did your previous XRC have 3 springs on the rear?

[@pmutah]

Yes I believe it did

[@boostenmkiv]

@@pmutah mine does and I'm not familiar with that type of set up, time to research. Good luck Friday, wish I could make it!

[@pmutah]

Thanks man should be a fun race

[@MrCarpediempilot]

Thank you for the Video! I just bought a 2020 XRC. I am coming out of a 2013 900xp. I just took this on a break in ride. Mostly low gear at this point. I don’t know if it’s just my first ride in the Maverick but I thought it felt amazing right out of the box. Do you have to ride super hard to set it up like you did or is the way you set it up just even better? I just don’t have much experience in this car yet. The 32” tires and all that travel felt amazing to me. You think your set up will make it that much better? Thanks again.

[@pmutah]

Congratulations man on your new Can-Am you're going to love it there so much fun. I think you'll find that my suspension settings make it ride softer and handle better give them a shot tell me what you think😎👍

[@MrCarpediempilot]

Thanks man. I set mine up just the way you said. It did make a difference. I really like the way it felt. I also used the performance key for the first time! Wow what a difference! I ran it in low as I am still breaking it in. But even at 3/4 throttle it is a monster! So stable! I love this thing! Thank you for the set up tips. The back tires were set at 24 from the factory. I let some out of the back running 18 psi all around. What do you run your tires at? Thanks again.

[@garrymickelsen6673]

Measurement to the rear crossover ring. You say 2.5" but your showing 6.5" on your tape. Am I seeing this right?

[@Cjchass77chassagne]

Are those adjustments just for the 2020? Because I have the 2019 x3 max and I adjusted my preload and dampening per foxes recommendations and adjustments are more turns from what your saying

[@pmutah]

Yeah you're 2019 might be set up a little different. this is what I used on my 2020😎👍

[@reneulloa2437]

So everything is clockwise full then you go to counterclockwise clicks in correct?

[@schiny2812]

Just ordered a 2020 XMR turbo RR, do you think these settings would be alright for the xmr version? On the front shocks at least?

[@pmutah]

You know I'm not sure if they'll work on the XMR but it's pretty easy to put settings in so just try them and see what you think😎👍

[@zombieqtr]

Hey Brandon, Awesome video as always, what are your thoughts on removing the front sway bar to improve the ride quality. Handling is no concern.

[@jeremyhaight1364]

I wonder how this would apply to a 2021 xds turbo rr

[@raulnavarro3582]

Great video, do you think there is a preset for combined use ?

[@pmutah]

This would be good settings for combined use 😎👍

[@ibjammin9763]

What's the ground clearance or ride height front and rear set at from the factory now previous years X3's were know to be shipped low to meet federal roll specs?Great info must be nice to take a shock tuner out with you to dial it in right from the start glad to see your back in a X3 looking forward to seeing your new adventures in the XRC!

[@pmutah]

I'm not exactly sure what the ride height is from the factory but it's much higher than it was on previous xrc models. Very lucky to have a cool suspension tuner right here close to me that will come out and ride and set me up for sure.😎👍

[@marlocantorjr.6626]

With that suspension setup, can you jump it without any issues or worries?? Thanks in advance!!

[@pmutah]

This is a good starting point for a jump set up. You'll probably just want to add more high-speed compression. If you're going big.😎👍

@@pmutah Oh ok. Ima do that then, thanks bro!! Im at Ocotillo Wells right now, come through lol

Thanks again. I'm going through my suspension after this video. Biggest discrepancy was my rear crossovers. Could you please reply with what the factory settings were? I'm really interested in how big of changes you made. I'm sure my crossover diff was the reason I kept getting pitched sideways on certain hits. Thanks in advance.

[@pmutah]

Jr thanks watching the video. I'm sorry I don't remember what my factory settings were I just remember that they were all over the place and needed to be adjusted😎👍

2019 2 seater XRS/XRC had 3 springs on the rear. 1 hard, 1 soft, 1 tender. The 2019 XRS max rear shock only had 2 springs 1 hard and 1 soft. This 2020 XRC has only 2 springs 1 hard, 1 soft. Interesting!

[@DoNotCome45]

So many people went with eibach springs because OEM sagged. Looks like they updated the spring setup. Might be pretty good and worth buying 2020springs for my 2019 instead of eibach ones.

[@umadbrew]

@@DoNotCome45 Noticed this as well on my '19 XRC. Ride height looks much better than my dads '18 XRS max with 2 springs. His needs upgrade for sure. I've only been out 3 times on the XRC 2 seater, but it seems from the get go a lot stiffer. I guess time will tell with sag.

I did this set up and it drove horrible. Low speed setting all the way out made it too soft and to much body roll. Def not a great setup for fast pace trail riding. I switched all the way back to close then 1 and a half back open and so much better after that. I still have to readjust the rebound it’s to slow.
