My +1's came yesterday, I'm just as excited as you are. I've got custom axis long travels going on mine.

I don't know how A-Arm companies can call thier design "Max Ground Clearance" when the lower shock mount hangs down that far and drags in all the ruts and hits on rocks?

It`s because that`s the max ground clearence you can get without going wider.

Was at King Shock yesterday getting shocks mocked up for this kit.

Went and got the new King shocks today.We tried a few different spring combos and in the end I ended up going with a single rate spring setup.

I'm surprised you went with a single rate setup. Do you mind sharing some more pictures of the shocks and whole quad? What are you doing for rear suspension? I'm interested in how you like the King shocks, have they made many for ATVs?

Not sure on the price since they didn`t charge me for them.:) so far they seem to work well.Need to have a rear shock built now also.These shocks can very easily be changed over to a dual rate setup.:) 3/4 " shafts with large resivoirs and lines for fluid transfer

yes but it`s right next to the wheel so you shouldn`t drag it much.My stock arms use to take a beating to the front of them.even with the GYTR skids
