Extended A- Arms Q

[Moto92]

Just a quick Q,
Can the stock 400 shocks be ran with +2 arms, Im going to run the Houser. I dont have the $$ to get shocks at the same time.

[rob-u/21]

Yes, you can use stock shocks with +2 or +3 a arms as long as they are not long travel a arms. The only problem will be that youre shocks will feel a lot softer because of the longer a arms.

and they will bottom out easily

it can be done but if you jump alot then there not gonna last long.

You would prob. hate your decision. The shocks would feel WAY too soft. And i imagine, if u want +2 a-arms, u do MX riding or something of that nature, and they would bottom going off the smallest jumps

u can do it for a little untill u get shocks but i wouldnt want to run that setup long it is plain miserable especially on MX

[forum]

you should get the shocks first set up for +2's. then get the arms. Even with the shocks set up for +2 they will still work better then stock shocks. thats what most people do. Suspension first!

i would get an axel first, actualy, cause u can run it right then, its cheaper, widens it out, jus a thought
