why do you want it so low? do you not know that lower ground clearence means easier bottoming out. (unless you have ZPS suspension). It may look good, but those pros quads that sit low are b/c of zero preload shocks and they still have all their travel and can hit jumps without bottoming out over the tiniest jumps. and o yea, did you ever get those longtravel a-arms with your stock, or predator shocks? lmao.

i got yall beat i race on the ice here in colorado and my quad can be all the way down to 1.5 in off the ice/ground. i have raised it up some because when a quad is that low it actually becomes lose AKA the back end dosen't have much traction in the corners. if yall don't believe me i will take a pict when i get home from college this weekend.

um well its kinda imposable to lower a quad with out loosing travle. zps or not if your quad sits at 6 inches off the ground and u still have like 10 inches of travle to go through u will break your ball joints b4 u bottom out the shocks.

my front shocks have 9 inches of travle and i sit at about 7 inches off the ground when i set my rear up for jumping. but sinse i have my rear low i sit at 4 inches off ground and still have 9 inches of travle up front.

and im not running long travle a-arms with pred shocks. i have yfz front and im buying some +2 a-arms std in a couple days.
