Will i notice a huge difference in my cornering stability?

Will the back end slide around a lot easier?

i would like to hear from someone that actually has done it.

I'm planning on +2 A-Arms, but that's not for a long time!

Will it really make it a lot harder to steer?

woodswarrior007, Thanks for the info.

""P.S. If you widen the rear, plan on doing the same in the front. otherwise you are probably in for some tree trama in the woods!!!!!!!!!!!""

Does monster know what he is talking about?

I have a +2 dura blue on my warrior.
I ride lots of moto with it and also trail ride with it, it's fine on both. My buddy has a 400ex and has a hard time trying to catch up because I can rail it in the turns with it. If you do get something to extend your axle buy a new axle NOT the axle extenders they will bend your stock axle.

What I am saying is I seen some kid that I didnt know do a superman in the woods,because he put on a wider axle and was saving his money to do the front! Dumb as it may be the front made it but the rear didnt! fotunetly he walked away. Just as dumb as he was before the crash!!!
