In a nut shell this is one hell of a kit. Strong, heavy, well engineered and best of all, the easiest mod I have done, next to the clutch spacer removal. If you know how to handle a wrench it will be done before you finish your beer. After settling in, I gained 2 1/4" in front and 1 3/4" in rear. Please note this is the max you can gain without going to longer axles. My shocks are set right in the middle to maintain some assemblance of smoothness. you might gain a tad more cranking them right up.

if your gonna get bigger tires, you should have just went with more lift. because your gonna have to buy gorilla axles once you change to a more aggressive tire anyway.

What size of tires are on it now? They look like 26" to me. How much ground clearance do you have with the lift in it?

That's it for the lift right now. No bigger tires till these wear out, maybe. I want this machine for hunting and want the narrow width. The current tires are 27" on 14" wheels, 11 wide on rear, 9wide on front. 14 1/4" clearence front, 13 1/2" clearence rear.

yup, Gary was nice enough to bring it over so I could document the install, take some measurments for a few guys asking, and take some pictures. Its also always a good idea for me to intall one of my own lift kits so I can answer questions a little better with first hand experiance.

Does that mean I am off the hook with the phone help :) How close were the direction that we came up with. What do you think of the final product. Were my opinions about the design inline with how you wanted the final product. I should have PM all of these questions but I am in the race to 1000 now.

Ya, its all clear on your phone bill now buddy LOL, but I am sure i will get some questions that will need your expertise ;)

The instructions were perfect, it really is an easy install, hell it could be done in like 40 minutes are faster if you are trying to beat a time.

The design is great Vern, again, i cant thank you enough buddy.

The rzr with the lifts did unbelieveable at the arean bog this weekend. I was very impressed. Every Rzr that was in the event beat the others in the first heat and most of them in the second heat. The final 3 where 2 rzr and last years champ rhino. The rzr beat him, but bearly.
