Do you have any pics of them installed yet! I was wondering how much height adjustment there is?
Will work for sure on all 05-up Foreman 500s and I think 01-up Rubicons.Hi,
Will these shocks work on my 2005 foreman 500 s?
thanks
The adjustment doesn't change the ride height as the bike sits. It changes the preload on the springs to soften or stiffen the ride. At the upper settings the suspension will not settle as much under load.Do you have any pics of them installed yet! I was wondering how much height adjustment there is?
I plan on doing that Tuesday or Wed, and comparing it to the stock ones..It would be interesting if someone would actually measure the height at the firmest and softest settings to see if theres a difference. .
Thats where you insert the phillips screwdriver from the toolkit to turn the adjusters. I mentioned in another post that the screwdriver is not a very good fit and that it might be a good idea to cut the tip off or make a tool from a piece of rod that would fit better.What are the knobs, look like a set screw almost, on the preload adjusters?

YES, the Red Springs are cool looking !!!Are there other advantages to these shocks over stock other than they are adjustable?
I have never ridden an ATV with a Perfex LT on it. BUT being able to adjust my spring preload/height 5 different ways in less than a minute for all 4 corners is not a fair comparison for any Lift kitDo you think this is a better mod than a Long travel/lift kit? It sounds better, I know its not really an apples to apples comparison but do you think there would be a benefit to having this and a long travel/lift kit.
Might they lift happen to be a "badd" lift ?...IF I were to make a Lift kit is would look something like this. A Billet Aluminum one peice lift with a ONE bolt installation ...
