Default Lift Kits

If your looking for snorkle info do a search, I know I've replied to at least 6 topics reagarding snorkles so the info is already here on the site.

For lift kits, my personal opinion is that I am not a fan. Most that I've seen for SRA machines are only spacers for the shocks so that your suspension is always at full droop. This causes the rear U-joint and the front CV joints to work at their max operating angles all the time leading to increased strain and wear. (From what I've read) Therefore wiht the parts worn driving in deep mud with large tires may cause breakage.

So your opening yourself up to more trouble for little gain.

Now IRS machines like the girzz and Rincon seem to have some nice full kits out there that are properly engineered and give a nice lift.

On a side note, Gorrilla Axle had a proper lift designed and engineered for the Foreman 450 but they scrapped the idea and destroyed the prototype...too bad I would have had one for sure.
