Damn seems pretty cool im not to familiar with lowering kits but hope it works ot for ya if it does i might have to see if you can make one for me how much would you charge if it turns out good?
 
if it works out right and i think its safe for someone else prolly like $30 with shipping this one im making mounts in the factory shock mount and runs out and up (simaler to the diamond j kit on ebay)
 
Gonna look real schmick when you get it finished.

Must be a real hard job working with that little end grinder, or did you use a bigger one for the main runs?
 
so we got it done but and as thought with the shocks strait up and down they get to soft. but it works to drop the quad like we wanted and its stong as hell.

looks good and looks like it works well but if you flat track and on a tight budget do you really need works shocks? could sell those bad boys and put some stockers and then buy some other motor mods.

ive had them forever had them on my warrior when i bought them only paid $70 for the set lol
 
Looks real good for flat track, but promise you wont jump that mother.

Is there any reason you fitted the shocks with the valve inside the plates, must be a cow to adjust?

Question, Did you fit squish spacers in the upper shock mounts?
