Canam X3 Fox suspension tune

[@goldbergdanny]

Tip: because you have to jack these things so much to exceed the travel, orient your wood blocks fore and aft (front to back) when jacking. They won’t roll on you that way. Plus, I give you one season, and then you’ll be calling Shock Therapy. ;)

[@redwatts9535]

Front A arm and rear swing arm guards are probably a must for your machine seeing some of the hard stuff you hit

[@jasonelder8089]

They have the best cages for factory machines, i rolled mine 3 times. No bends or dents

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

That’s good to hear!

[@Stupidwon1234567]

Shit I hit a tree sidewalk at a good rate of speed and it didn't hurt the cage much. Pretty impressive for how hard the hit was. I'll build a cage for it soon but I feel very safe with factory cage.

[@p0weraid]

The wildcat xx has the best factory cage, x3 is 2nd.

[@joseph-greatvids.terriblew1748]

Glad to see your starting out with the proper suspension settings. Seeing as the tire pressure settings were kinda out to lunch and suspension settings were having lunch with the tire pressures; might be a good idea to check the rest of the machine over with a decent torque wrench. J.F.

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

Yeah I hear ya there. We gave it a decent once over. Couple more upgrades then time to find some weak links lol

[@steveslootweg4925]

Fyi the square hole in the spanner wrench fits a ratchet makes it way easier to use

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

Learn something new everyday lol

[@cbgranger11]

Good to know...i didnt know that

[@frankandgordoffroad]

As we learned after the first 100 miles the springs will sag. I suggest adding at least another inch of preload. Have adjusted ours twice now due to sag!

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

I’ve heard that! I’ll have to readjust after a bit of riding

[@craneyguy]

Fox shock tune must do. Line wheel bearing must do. Lube driveshaft must do. Love my X3 rc 2019. World best belt must do. Then your ready to have fun. Like the channel and even more now that your in a x3. Keep up the good work.

[@craneyguy]

Oh one more I went a half turn more on the front shocks. Fast and slow compression and the rebound runs good at 15 front and 17 rear. Takes that rear jump out when your in the air.

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

Thanks man! You’d choose worlds best belt over oem?

[@jamesworkman686]

@@BlownBudgetOffroad definitely go with world's best belt. Check out Rocky mountain ATV or SXSBlog for great deals on belts turbos tunes ect. Or evolution powersports

[@craneyguy]

Sorry about the Line word should have been Lube. Yes that belt is awesome. Shifts almost the same as the oem and it won’t heat up as fast as the oem.

[@redwatts9535]

For peace of mind and to prevent nasty things happening it's a good idea to remove each wheel and caliper and pump 6-10 pumps of grease into the wheel bearings. They come notoriously lacking in grease. The over the axle grease tool is cheap and easily available online. There are You tube vids on it

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

I’ll have to look into it! Thanks

[@exclus456]

Great video guys. Just what I needed for my identical X3...

[@markcoleman2960]

Made a huge difference on my X3 RC turbo R

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

For sure

[@DUNEATV]

Keep an eye on the sway bar links...we broke ours within the first 500 miles on our XRC

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

Yeah I’ll likely be pulling sway bar off the front and prolly disconnect the rear for more articulation

[@Hondarider35]

Do your self a solid and get aftermarket front control arms, and gusset kit. I’m not sure if orb makes stuff for the x3. But if they do. That is a great option.

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

Yeah I’m workin on this for sure

[@outdoorzone]

Doug Summers too bad it needs all that beefed up to make trail worthy! But for these guys it’s a must for sure.

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

outdoorzone for the average rider that’s not as savage as us I doubt it’s needed. But for what I’m gonna do with it deff a good idea

[@Hondarider35]

Unfortunately the arms are needed for pretty much everyone. The stock are real weak. Just like the Polaris! I know a guy that folded lower arms on his brand new x3 at the dunes. And he was trail riding fast.

[@outdoorzone]

Blown Budget Offroad prob true especially if it’s a dune machine or race unit!

[@mitchellcates4106]

Y’all should come visit Winchester TN we got a few places to ride with in 30 min

[@mitchellcates4106]

Got miles of creek beds and water falls

[@jamesworkman686]

Ever been to wheeling in the country in summer town TN?

[@joelemire1913]

Learning is a good thing.

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

Always

[@chadandrade635]

Just got one didn't know I had to adjust them, anyways rides smooth from the factory my drinks don't splash in the cup holder lol 😆

[@SXSVideos]

Cool video guys! I cannot wait to see that beast do some work! Nice hoodie Billy! Thanks for reppin SXS Of Missouri! Hopefully we can get together again this year!

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

Yeah man hoping we can get together soon! Have some riding videos coming soon already have them filmed just need to edit!

[@SXSVideos]

@@BlownBudgetOffroad editing is definitely time consuming!

[@TJ-po9ol]

I've read that you're supposed to measure the crossover length with the machine on the ground?

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

I don't think it makes sense with it sitting with weight on them according to fox measurements

[@Richard-gy1fo]

Check width and ground clearance measurements after you drive it to settle suspension

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

We did in the next vid after driving it around a bit

[@Richard-gy1fo]

Ok cool. Good detail in the vids.

[@rileysnow4018]

I have that same flat head😂. Love your guy's videos!

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

Awesome! Haha

[@joelemire1913]

I think the others are sniffing that machine pretty good,lol,I see different brands coming in soon,real soon .

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

I don’t think so haha but who knows

[@jbw5485]

Awesome video. Thanks. Still riding with these settings?

[@00jake00]

Did this help keep the machine from nose diving on jumps really badly like I see online all the time?

[@chadrobertsletsride7489]

Your friends with YXZ,s will soon follow.

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

Only time will tell 👀

[@BigOlson]

I didn’t see it in the video, but fox made a big deal about pressing down on the tire to get full droop before measuring. Did you do that and the tires just stayed down? Or do they spring back up?

[@stacyreid5077]

I love the suspension on it but hate not being able to see out the back of it very easy The way it seems as though I sit in it I feel like a Mexican Low Rider just barely able to see over the hood

[@Randy_84]

Why didn't the dealership have it setup this way?

[@krugererik9604]

I'm a little bit late. Would you recommend doing this tune?

[@futureimage2890]

Question on your Rebound. You say 20 clicks. What I found on fox website is 12? But not sure if it is correct. I’m running a 2020 maverick X3 turbo XDS 64”

[@1ttcobra2003]

Any idea if this will work for my 2022 XRS smart shox 72 inch? It sits very low at the moment

[@jamesdeborde4167]

What website did you get that fox tune info from.

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

I just googled canam x3 xrs fox tune and then in google images there’s a pic of the sheet I showed in the video

[@mikeruder336]

A good informative video.

[@BlownBudgetOffroad]

Thanks 👍

[@slabz710]

Would this be the same tune for a 2020 xrs? Thanks for the video!

I believe so but you should be able to just google fox tune for your machine

You need to drive it good and cycle the suspension then check and adjust...

Right. This was just a starting point for me
