Will the handa 450r shocks make my quad sit hiher in the front? would i be better with ltr or kfx shocks?

it will make it sit about 1" higher. it is really personal preference as to which shock to use. the others will require some grinding or milling of the shock eye on top to fit properly when compared to the 450r shock, but they are also softer than the r shock too. the r shock is a bit stiff on stock arms for lighter people. they can be revalved or adjusted for the most part to get them a bit softer but overall they are stiffer.

I've seen guys with them on their 400exs an they seem to like them. I have 450R Elka's on 400ex framed hybrid with +1 a-arms. They work great.
