you might want to reinstall your stockers, those things are just too long for these lil' LT's to keep the front end geometry correct.Originally posted by fattire

I had heard of "goofy" things going on with some of those shocks, that is why I ended up buying works.

mid west mini LT page
Add 1" of ground clearance, and 5" of travel.......purdy cool I will say. $149.00 very cool.
It was a well respected builder/ owner/racer that stated a month or so back that these shocks are a buyer beware situation.

thanks ,maggiesboy,nice quad, about what i can do with these shocks?i've been checking everyones PROJECTS,a arms,extenders,even camber compensators, all seem to need tie rod changes also correct?
midwest mini's site sells "stud " extenders, don't think so,,,,,
i've kinda tossed around the top shock tower mount ,.
idea but i'm afraid that the shock angle will give me probs.
any more suggestions?
you are correct with your thoughts on the stud type extenders, we use the dura-blue ez fits on the front, as they are much stronger.
I don't know of anyone running the compensators. I will look into that some more.
The shock is just too long to fit properly, without a relocated top or bottom mount. If you have a welder, life is good

those shocks are junk but now you have them. we put the james lucky +6 front end extender on ours fixed the camber issue it comes with tie rod ext and ever thing you need.def a plus for the lt front end we also ran a ext rear axle the thing really handles .
thanks guys, talked to my WELDER today perhaps there is yet some hope
whats the deal with the james lucky extenders? is it a set of NEW a arms? what is in the package?
thank you again .
stu
it bolts in and extends your spindles+3 on each side think its 150.00 not sure they have a site i think james lucky.
hello again;
sorry for the time -gap-, busy getting the quads ready ,
i'll be posting my pic,s asap. i WAS able to use them after all, just had to FAB the top shock mount, i used alum, turn out .
thats all i'm gonna say on that ,
thanks for all your input guys!
happy riding,
stu
