mikestudley1 Posted June 6, 2006 Report Posted June 6, 2006 i know this is off the wall but has anyone put or tried to put somethin like HPG skidoo or FOX shock or any kind of upgraded snowmobile front suspension on a quad or is this impossible ... just wondering ...dont laugh haha Quote
dajogejr Posted June 6, 2006 Report Posted June 6, 2006 I've been thinking about that myself. I have a +6 over swingarm...and a stock rear shock that's seen it's better days. Snowmobiles traditionally are heavier sprung and more tightly valved...cause, let's face it...they're heavy... It would pretty much revolve around: Length of shock from eye to eye Position of rezzie (clearance) Spring weight Valving Not to mention, you'd have to figure in any machining work, etc as well. As I'm sure you've read, YFZ modded front shocks for a banshee is a hot item now. While some are against it, most seem to like it just fine. This year, I'm working on the motor and drivetrain... End of this year and the off season, I'm going through the suspension, plastic, etc. Most will argue (rightfully so) that suspension should be first...I just chose to build a motor first. Quote
