| Geterdun's and my front axles are really loose at the differential. both sides. could this be from the 450R shocks and no sway bar. | |

It depends on how loose they are Ray if the are just a little loose keep riding it.I just fixed mine before the Fall Ride with over 6,300 miles at that time and the front axles were real real bad  | |

| I had 2800 miles on my 08 before I put the Suzuki shocks on it & the front axles were already really loose for a long time before that running stock everything including the sway bar but with a 2 inch lift kit. Our mechanics say that's from normal wear/tear to just keep riding it but keep an eye out for any leaks for the diff. seals could eventually get worn out from it. My 04 Sportsman 700 with 2500 miles on it & all stock is just as bad. | |

Not having them is what beats up the front ball joints and everything else. If the shock is bottoming out all the time like it does with the stock shock then it takes a hard lick just like the driver does. If it feels smoother to you with the 450 shocks think about how much less the suspension is taking a beating. | |
