Hopefully the mosquitos will not be on the ocean, lol. I talked to a guy that lived in alaska for a while.... He said the caraboo you see running on tv are running from the mosquitos! He said they're thick enough swarms to kill you. I'd take some repellant just to be safe. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Anything will work.... How much time are you willing to put into it? You will need longer a-arms to take advantage of all the travel or else you'll bust a balljoint or something. Same thing in the back. You'll need a longer swing arm.

Yeah, it would take a lot of cuttin n weldin to get it done. Try a set of 250s shocks if you can find them. They are a little longer than stock, so watch the balljoint binding thing! But the 250 rides 10x better than the 230. You might even find the 250 arms on ebay too.

hey'all Its me again or still or whatever you call it. In an answer to quadsport230 If you measure the length of your shocks from eye to eye ( the bolt holes ) and put those two numbers and the word shock in the e-bay search you will find shocks the length you want ( us smart sellers on e-bay write up shocks this way) I sell shocks all the time to project people, Mostly go-carts.

In all other notes I am theilled to be back. I have moved my business to a storefront location (thus the short item lists) and have just hooked up my new computer and will have the knew laptop by july. YOU GUYS WILL NEVER BE RID OF ME AGAIN L&gt;O&gt;L.

It is awesome to see the same faces here.

I would like to thank poolgod for keeping yall in mind through e-bay. I will be able to script this forum to my laptop as well so I will be checking in daily and reading up on the other tails I have missed besides this ALASKA trip that will be the best time you had EVER.

Yo quadsport230 I just checked out the front shocks and 230 shocks are 12 inches. I do not know how much longer you can go without modifications. I have a set of honda 300ex shocks that are 13 inches. Just thought I would let you know.
