Yes, sag is good. Sag is your friend.
TCS and AXIS shocks are set at approx 3" of sag.
You can see how low my bike sits by clicking on the link in my sig...
Here are a couple individual pics from my page:

atvrider300ex,
I used to have a 300ex (now 400ex) and a good cheap suspension mod is the works performance dual-rate shocks. There not to expensive($250?) and they work much better than stock. Also, if you want to make your quad wider you can fit 400ex a-arms on (I have some)or offset rims and get either a axle or wheelspacers. I'm from Lumberton where do yall ride at in Fayetteville. Have you gone to the St. James dunes?
2000 400ex, +2 Burgard a-arms, triple-rate works shocks, Big Gun exhaust(162 main & 42 pilot),Uni Filter, +4 LSR axle, CS Racing Ingnition Key, Denton steering stabilizer, 2001 One Industries graphics, Renthal bars, Duncan Racing front bumper, Nac's BP block off, XR400 clutch lever and perch.

I'm sure that with the geometry of the front suspension, there is a negligible width increase, nothing to be concerned about.
I race harescrambles, a lot of the courses are very tight, so additional width is a bad thing. I am very happy with this setup so far, the cornering improvement is impressive.
The TCS's are a tad longer than stock, if I remember correctly about 1/4 - 1/2", I'm not really sure what that translates to at the tire though. Todd at TCS could answer this better for you.
What is the Ironman? I haven't heard of it...

Thanks for the info - The IRONMAN is the GNCC race in Crawfordsville, In. I have never been, so I'm sure someone in here knows more about it than I do. It is supposed to be a pretty tough course, but I don't know. They usually have a write up in Dirt Wheels every year. I see you are from Missouri - Are you close to Macon? I pull tractors & we are going to Macon this weekend.

I'm in Branson, which is about 35 miles South of Springfield, near the Arkansas border. Basically SW Missouri.
I wish some of the GNCC came closer to me, I ride both the Missouri and Arkansas State harescramble series' and love it. This is my first year competing in these events and have been doing well and having a blast...

I have a set of TCS SCS front son mine, and when i first got them, yes it did sit low, but all you have to do, is very simple. At the top spring, there is a circlip, if you pull that top ring down a bit, youll see a circlip. Get the machine so that the whells are off the ground, and then pull that top ring down, and have someone else move that circlip down a few notches. Do this until you want it at the ride hight you like, then start to tune in your compression, rebound.
