i'm looking to get some preload shocks for my 03 KFX 400. If i get preloads in the front would i really need one in the back? Whats a good brand? Should i get new wider A-arms or just leave the stock ones on?
Thanks

works and elka make preload adjustable ones.. you dont need aarms but they give you alot better control of the bike if you get extended aarms then you wil ahve to get an axle and revlave or get a new rear shox....one thing leads to another on these bikes.....customizing is an addiction, a very expensive one

thanks i'll look for them but seeing i don't have alot of money now after buying my 4wheeler and a truck i'll probly just go for the shocks (for now)

btw my 4wheeler has a +2 in durablue rear axle on it (i bought it with it)

thanks

there are alot of afforable front end kits out there...you may just want to save a little longer and get a really nice setup....but even if you get just shoxs now it will be a huge difference for the best

would i want to get preloads for the front and the back or could i just buy um for the front and skip the back cuz i've heard that replaceing the rear shox is a pain
