Looky what the UPS man dropped off today for me!! I can't wait to get some ride time on these. They are the Recreational series tripple rate SSD shocks, setup for XC with a 190-220lb rider. Got free shock covers with them too!! I'm really suprised at how heavy duty the shock covers are. Well, I just thought I'd show off my new bling bling. :blah: I've got more to come later this week hopefully....an HMF slip-on, Kenda Klaw front tires, Kenda Knarly rear tires, Elka conversion on my stock rear shock, and some other misc. items.

I would need the same ones. Where did you get them and how much did they set you back?

I got them from Precision Powersports for $464.99 with FREE shipping and FREE shock covers, it was the best deal I found. It took about a week and a half for them to arrive. They look sweet on the quad too! :blah:

I bought the same ones from the same guy as well. Best money ever spent. What are you doing with the rear? I picked up a stock 400 rear shock w/ ZPS dual rate elka conversion already done to it. Awesome setup.

6858-400ex - More travel and it sits like two inches lower w/ the ZPS. Handles like its on rails now even with stock a-arms and axle. I love this setup.

400exrider707, I sent my rear shock out to C&D Racing and they're doing the Elka conversion on it as we speak. I hope to have it by the end of the week....hopefully.

Ouch? :huh Are you saying you could've beat that price? Or that you couldn't have beaten that price? Just curious....(guess it doesn't really matter now, money is already spent)

Send Jeff@QuadShop a PM, he'll tell you his pricing. His beat what I paid, but not by a whole lot...still could've saved a few bucks though....but I ain't gonna loose any sleep over it. ;)
