I would contact Derisi racing or PEP. The wait at PEP will be longer. I have a rear yfz conversion From TCS and I wouldn't do it again. GT Thunder does them also but after reading a post about them I would pass.

I've got the GTT conversions and rear linkage, works great. Just wish I could get the rear seat height down more. Going to try out the CRJ rear lowering linkage.

gt thunders shock conversions are great...and i read both posts from the KID...his side of the story only AND his communication skills weren't the best with us on either occasion(especially after @ moderators spoke against his poor usage of the english language). if he can't communicate with us, could he communicate his wants to the gt thunder employees?

from a local race over the weekend, me on the KFX, my bud on his 450R. Notice the KFX seat height vs. the Honda.

I bet that honda would bottom out really bad if you took it off a mid size jump or hit ruts/jumps wrong. Seems to need some attention on the rear shock. Looks to be sagging way to much coming of the corner!

actually it doesn't, he has gt thunder revalves also. Seen him hit a 30+ foot creek jump with no problems.

I thought when I saw the Kfx for the first time that it looked tall.

I also have a GT Thunder rear conversion and it works GREAT! I couldn't be happier. ;)
