anyone upgrade shocks on a 2003-2004 predetor with the 2005 fox podium x shocks and/or HPD thriple rate spring kit?? want opinions and if any improvements in ride. i can get the front shocks with rezzies for 160.00 each and HPD triple rate spring kit for $314.00 for all three shocks. please advize.

 

I have the HPD triple rate spring kit on my 04 pred, with the stock shock, and absolutly love them! At first I wasnt sure about them but did a few small adjustments and got them tuned in nicely. They have a much softer ride, with a better bottoming resistence, in my opinion. Cornering is also better since they lower you a little bit over the stock springs, as long as you get em dialed in where they dont have to much roll in corners. I definatly think that they were worth the money! Hope this helps you out a little bit.

 

I have a 04 pred and I had some problems with that kit. the fronts were o.k but the rear sucked. I ended up using the stock set up in the rear and modding the front set by loosing the blue and adding a different thrid spring.
I felt the kit wasn't that good if you are into big jumps. it was great for tt style riding. I also didn't like loosing ground clearance. I talked with darrell a number of times about the kit and I did everything he said to do and still no luck.
I revalved the shocks and added rezzy's and still didn't like it.
