  1. Still can't figure out pics, here is a link to the page with them till mulletman gets them posted up for me. http://nick906.fotopic.net/c1349700.html
  2. If someone wants to post the pics for me pm me your email and I'll send them over, just took them a few minutes ago.
  3. Not sure if anyone else has done it yet, but I put ltr450 shocks on today. They work great with the rezzies toward the front, look really cool too. I installed without springs first to check for clearance and everything was great, measured over 9" of wheel travel. It sits pretty high, but not to bad, I'll get some pics posted in the next couple of days. Just used some washers to space the shocks as far forward as I could so the springs wouldn't rub on the arms. Hit the jump in the back yard a few times and they feel the best of the 3 shocks I have tried. The 450r shocks would have been a close second if they didn't hit the arm.
  4. I might try a set of these since the 450r shocks won't work. With the yfz spindles, with the front end in the air, I measure 17" from center to center on the bolt holes, so these shocks should slide right in without compressing even. Just a little worried it might sit too high.
  5. Anybody try ltr450 shocks yet, how do they compare quality wise, eye to eye, width at upper and lower mounts? Looks like the rezy's should work fine, might hit the pipes pointed back, but should work facing the front.
  6. Yes, the mount and rezy are one cast piece.
  7. I just went out and just unbolted the top of one side and spun it 180. Doesn't look like it will help any. Its a shame that these shocks won't work because with the yfz spindles it looks to have the potential for even more travel. With the stock spindles the shocks were tight getting them in, but once I unbolted the top with the yfz spindles I had at least an inch to play with. These shocks to seem a little odd though, with everything set as loose as possible the front end only has maybe a 1/2" sag without me on it, and it seems pretty stiff. Felt good jumping though.
  8. I'll try flipping the shocks tomorrow, I'll let you guys know how it looks. Its a bummer they don't fit right. I'm guessing you would have the max amount of travel with these shocks, they just barely squeeze into the mounts. Its the same on both sides, hasn't done much damage to the shocks luckily, but nice dents in the arms, hopefully doesn't weaken them too much. The yfz spindles are aluminum, and if you get them complete, have better brakes. They also hold the ball joints at better angles and it also looked like it has less negative camber when I switched.
  9. I did my install of the 450 arms the other day and used a set of 450r shocks with the res mounted to the rear. I hit my jump in the back yard a few times, was only getting maybe 7 ft of air. Went out today to put on the yfz spindles and brakes and noticed a dent in the top of my upper arm. The reservoir is hitting the arms. Has anyone else had this problem? Would switching the reservoir to the front help, it would make adjustments harder? If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. Thanks, Nick
  10. One day left, should go cheap if anybody wants it. Thanks
  11. Thanks for the help Bansh-eman, I wasn't paying attention to what I wrote. Got the reeds today, thanks for shipping them out so fast. Is there a way to edit the topic, or do I need to start a new thread with the correct description? I am in Rochester, MI 48307
  12. If you want the whole pro flow setup with the filter and airbox I have one. $50
  13. Going with pods, foam filters are in good shape. $60 shipped. If you need the whole airbox you can have it, no lid, just throw a couple dollars more for shipping. Nick
  14. I'll be there this weekend, purple and yellow shee, and a blue jeep YJ. I'm staying at the state park campground. Nick
