300EX Front Suspension Ideas...

[Live2Ride300]

What do you guys run for suspension on the front of your 300EX's?. Im thinking about gettina pair of works shocks and gettina pair of front wheel spacers. Ive heard the front wheel spacers dont put much stress on the spindles etc. Is this true? Thanks for help in advance

DUDE wheel spacers in my mind are pain in the ***. i have heard that they arent very good art all for the reason of extra stress on the spindles and thy also ruin the rims very easily.(warp,bend etc)
i would buy some 400ex arms or 250r arms. these bolt up and will give you the added width.

for shocks i w ould buy works triple rate shocks. these cost $350 or

You can buy new 400ex a arms for the same price of wheelspacers.

Wheelspacers are bad because they make more bumpsteer and cause more stress on your front end.

NJ300EX, did u put 400ex a-arms on ur 300ex?

[Live2Ride300]

If I got 400EX A-arms , then Id need 400EX shocks, tie rods and a new mount to mount the shocks because, they wouldnt fit with the stock mounts. Id need a new shock tower. Ive been wanting to do this, but I would rather have the bolt on thing that bolts onto the stock shock tower so you can mount the 400EX shocks, does anyone know where this product can be found?
Thanks guys

buy a 400ex, like me charlie. then you wont have any suspension worries....pins and needles, nice to know you, goodbye.....

ya i wish i could have got the 400, then i wouldnt be stuck with problem, ERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR<

those jumps in carpenters pits really take a toll on your quad, maybe if you didnt air it out quite so high, it wouldnt bottom...but who can resist, that lip on the side of the entrance road is irresitable...

you were talking about buying works front shoks anyway......good go ahead and get the works...but instead of getting front wheel spacers get either 250r or 400ex a-arms....you can adjust the works shocks .....

what about getting 400 long travel a-arms, wouldnt that make it so it would fit?
