Ok, it is a little too late for me to ask this since I have already gotten the lift kit. But I have heard that they will put more strain on your cv joints, diffs, etc. I am sure this is true if you have excessively larger tires and the lift, but I have heard mixed stories. On my Foreman i have 25" 589's and the lift. I have owned several Honda's in the past (Big Red, 300 4x4, which are still running just given to the other members of the family) and have never had major problems other than routine maintanance. So I guess what I am asking is if this will greatly depreciate the life of the atv? If so then that lift is GONE! Only because that Foreman is a great atv and I don't really want to buy another one anytime soon. Any opinions would be appreciated. Thanks.

it is harder on your cv's and such, but with the 25's you should be a-ok!
