firefighterjosh XC King Quad 700 Build

[northwest Texas]

I notice the YFZ front shocks. What did you do to them? Change any springs, revalved, etc?

What are you running on the rear?

My b-i-l has some brand new Raptor SE shocks I may try if they're worth it. They'll be lying around this weekend.

Gotta love those All Traks, eh? I sure wish they made them in a 20"

I need to install a set on my "new" KQ, got em, just gotta take the stock's off.

I am not sure about revavling yet. Once I get it running and can get a little time ot play with them I will know what vavling I want.

On the rear I am not sure. 450R shocks will work but you have to make brackets so it dosen't bind the CVs. My Banshee shocks fit right up, but I am going to have to wait to test them when I can see if they will bind up.

Yes I love the all traks, they will get the ultimate test next year during the IXCR series

Keep me posted would you?

For ****s and giggles, I may take the Raptor's shocks and put them up front. I notice they are a little longer, 3/4" I think it was.

I just wondered if you slapped them on and rode or if there was some forethought going on.

Just take it easy and make sure they don't bind.


YFZs are great up front from what I have read. Its the rears no one has figured out

Air box mods.

Originally I was going to still use the original stock intake but I have decided against that. It will be plugged off. (isn't in pics)

But I have added some other mods to it.

Above the Air box lid is a huge wide hole I cut. This will not get any material over it. On the side I have holes with outerwear material incase of a splash


If its going to be watery race or raining I made a water/mud flap for the hole. tis not going to keep all the water out but it will help against splashes


Side view


I also installed heat tape to help cool the airbox which I hope leads to cooler air.

The king is alive. Running decent. Still has some tunning to be done.

This is from about a 5-10MPH roll. A little over 3/4 throttle. Can't wait to really rip on it. But I would like to get some more hours on it before beating on it too bad
