Do you only get 2.5 inches ? I thought you got 2.5 just with installing the Elkas with aftermarket A-arms (+2 or +1) and then you get another 2-3 with the SSD option, for a total of between 5-6 inches total. Anyone ?

The "no preaload" feature give the suspension maximum traction and stability at the beginning of the stroke while ensuring excellent impact resistance at the end of it. This feature lowers the height - and therefore the centre of gravity - of the ATV, resulting in easier turns and better weight transfer.

Im getting these shocks, and Elka told me that they would lower the bike by 2.5 "

rr36C / pb36C Triple rate / Remote reservoir or Piggy back
Compression adjustable
TRIPLE No preload / Ride height adjustable

RR46SSD Double rate / No preload
Compression and rebound adjustable
Remote reservoir

I have +3+1 LS Racing Arms

I'm using TCS for TT in the Nationals. I can get them for 1100.00 front, and rear conversion. That would be 0 preload. I had them cut my shocks down to lower my bike even more.They work sweet. Not to brag but I won the open class with them. Just to let you know I raced the first 3 races with out having them cut down and took two 3rd places and one 7th place. After cutting the shocks I took the rest of the races in 1st place. I don't know about you but I think I would say the shocks really helped.
If you need a set pm me and I'll hook you up on a set.
