i plan on doing racing next season with my 300ex and i will be practicing at a local track all winter... any way right now i have 300ex works shocks and 400ex arms i hit 4 foot jump and i bottom out preety bad so im debating on getting just 400ex works but i dont want my quad to sit to high(i used to have stock 400ex shocks and it sat way to high) and the 300ex works are just to low here some pic's of what it was with the stock 400ex shocks and now with the 300ex shock will my front end if i got the 400ex works look like this

i guess for it all to work out on a MX track i need the relocator and the 400ex works cuz stock 400ex shocks are no good

uh i dont think you have the conversion mount do you? you need that then you can use 400ex shocks fine!

i'd just get +2 400ex a arms, get the shock relocator, then get 400ex front works shocks for +2 a arms....seems like the best way to me...u get a 3.5inch wider front end

serarch for post on this topic, there is plenty of info. the best front end is 300ex a-arms (stock or aftermarket) with the 400ex shock relocater and 400ex shocks (aftermarket shocks made for this set up are even better)
