Default 400ex ... Help needed

Okay, i am trying to make my own front lowering kit for my 400. Has anyone made there own and if so could you please post some pics or something so i can get some sort of idea. I was thinking about just getting the durablue one but they dont look that strong [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]. Any help or comments would be really helpful. Thanks in advance.

No, im not changing the shocks, just want to lower the front for some play drag racing. I aleady have the durablue rear strut, but like i said the dura blue front kits dont look that strong, so that's why i want to make my own.

I think I would look into WISTECH's idea about the 300ex shocks. It might be a cheap and easy way to accomplish what you're looking for. What would be easier, bolting in two shocks ( that you could probably pick up CHEAP on ebay by the way ), or fabricating something that might not work like you want it to the first time?
