I have lifted my '03 Eiger again to gain 13" of clearance, plus I have widened it out 5". Bike feels and handles awesome! I don't hear or feel any strange noises, and the cv joint is actually not too steeply angled.
I fabricated the front lift kit out of 1/8 plate, and it is nice and strong.Check my photos for pics of the new look.

 

sweet, nice lookin quad you got there. Must handle nice any good in the mud? I'm allways nervous in the mud with a semi-automatc.

 

yeah it look great man!!. me too, i like the automatics in the mud or snow. even though one of my quads are semi auto. i use that one for a lot of trail riding. i ride all of them equally pretty much.

 

yep, it handles way better than it did with stock tires and stock height. you can feel the confidance in the bike now. alot better in snow too.

 

I like it. Good job. What height did you lift the back and front. They are different right? The front of your eiger is standing proud. I think mine needs that look as well

 

2" in rear, and approx 3.5-4" in front. PS I have those pics for you silverbacks.

Hope you can see them. Just click the link, and pm me any questions. These are only the front. Thats all i would lift right now til you get big tires. my bike kinda looked odd with both front and back lifted 2" with small tires, but only the front will just make the bike sit level. i often think the designers designed the "look" of the bike before they designed the chassis and susp.

 

anybody using stud extenders for wheel spacers? and did you ever have a problem with bending or breaking? i have them installed and just wondering how they hold up.
