i got mine done at J-H Racing 918-371-0101. Triple rate front and dual rate rear. dropped the height of the bike 2 in their not Axis or PEPs but they sure were alot cheaper (right at 600 bucks) and work alot better than stock.

i had c&d do mine the best mod i have done to my quad it kept me from having to et a longer swinger, it just squats and goes now no more front end issues, even with a built motor and a 13t front, i had just not changed it back out yet on the first ride and even on pavement it still stayed down, it was the best mod i bought for the quad

I have GT Thunder rebuilds and love them. The fronts I got used and are their first rebuilds, but still work awesome. They have changed the design since then. The rear was just redone and I love it. No only does it drop the ride height but it is a lot smoother and no bucking.

do you guys' rebuilds take care of the quick front shock fading problem? cause i can only get about 15 min of riding on my fronts before they are way worse than 300ex shocks
