Default Wolvey 06' Long Travel Kit

Well I finally got my Long travel kit from perfex for my 06 wolvey 450. Out of the box, looks clean. Nice material CNC cut. Directions had me concerned, they werent very clear and only had two relevant pictures. So I pulled off the front plastic & shocks, Simple. I installed the upper part of shock mounts. Very tight fit, i also grinded of about 1/8" to clear some vent tubes & wiring, No biggie. Now to mount the lower mounts. Unclear which side is which. Once i figured it out they didnt fit the best. It came with washer that i had to grind A side off to fit better, also used some of my own washers to "shim" the shock out better. I also had to use some "shims" on the uppers too to get the space taken up. The spacer tubes supplied were about an 1/8" to long, had to shorten them down to fit. The rear took a little while to figure out too.again used some extra washers to shim. Over all looks good. Gave the body a little lift, not much more ground Clarence. Havent road it yet, ill post back on that. Ill take some pics to clarify. Think the kit could be a little more user friendly.

The rear rack was kinda a trade/favor. I friend owns a place that builds aircraft parts. He had some scrap so i drew up what i wanted and he made it for me. I like it. It sits kinda forward, i hit my back on it now and again but ive gotten used to it.
