Well we installed my Elka SSDs today and it went very well. Everything fit properly and I didn't have to grind any mounts or anything like that. They seemed to work excellent so far but until I have some good riding conditions like actual dirt instead of snow the serious dialing in will have to wait a few weeks. They lowered my ride height by 2" at least and improved traction and handling. I got more air then I have on the stockers and they soaked it up easily. If I had to complain about something it would be that the clicks you feel when adjusting the compression are to subtle and you can barely feel them. The rear rezzy line is about a mile long and I had to run it down the left frame rail around the front of the engine and attach it to the right frame rail. The good part of this is I can reach down and adjust the compression by hand while I'm sitting on the quad. I know a couple of other guys who have done it this way and they don't have any problems with engine heat and the rezzy. One of them even competes in hour and a half cross country races with no heat problems and he races in Kentucky. That's all for now got to run.

Thats the way most higher end shocks mount, My axis is in the same spot.

 

You mean you ran your rezzy up front near the engine as well? I'm not positive which part you are agreeing with that's all

 

Yes, My rear axis res. is ran up front by the radiator on my R.
