Lift and tires

I ordered my 2" lift from JBS last night. I will be ordering my new tires on monday. Also going to get the Trail Armor a arm/cv guards. Orderd Monday.

I am going with the GBC Dirt Tamers as they are $100.00 cheaper then bighorns and everyone I know that has GBC's has had great luck with them.

Awesome! U will love it

what size tires are you getting ?

26" any bigger I worry about power loss and hieght clearance on the trails.

i was running 27's for 14 inch rims on my prowler they was itp mudlites but now i am running the sedona rip saw rt in the 26 for 14 inch rims and i love them !!!! the really dig and bite and go but they ride really smooth on hard pack stuff .

you will like the dirt tammers i have a set with 1500+miles and still have about half tread left and they have great traction.

Lift is on. Instructions could be better, but by know means difficult. I have a full 2 1/4 lift front and rear. The rear looks a little different becuase of the skinner tires. I sold them and plan on ordering my GBC Dirt Tamers Monday that will be wider on the back.

Thanks James for the good deal and fast arrival.

Awesome! Looks good to me!

I g






























I Got My Super ATV Springs In I CAN,T Wate To Put Them on

Ok, Minor issue..I hope.

It seems when I was pulling the strut/spring down and out to install the front spacer, as the instructions say, the passenger side outboard CV joint poped lose. I haven't driven it, only moved it 3-4 ft back and forth in neutral.

Did it just pop out or did it break? I can move the axle back and forth and turn it. I hope just a retainign ring popped out. I won't have time to take it apart until monday or tuesday...

Is this fatal for the joint?

There is a lot of angle on what looks like the drivers side , are you sure you have the strut in correct ? if so then you have a lot more lift than 2" and it is probably pulling the Axle out , I had the same problem on mine when I did some service work . Can not tell you exactly was the problem I just remember is being the alignment of the front strut , maybe how it sits in the top comes to mind . I just would not drive it like that , you could definatly destoy splines on the axle and diff .

The lift is 2inches from what I measured before and after. The Drivers side is locked in tight, but I didn't have to completely remove the strut on that side i was able to slide the spacer on with it still under the brace where it bolts on.

The passneger side made a pop when I pulled it out, but I didn't notice it at the time. Whats odd is I did exactly what the instructions say and show on the passneger side and it is the one loose.....

It should be no problem to pop right back in. You can always call me anytime you have questions ... I usually go to bed around 11 but anytime before that is fine. My # is 304-673-2602 .... put it in your phone!

Yep. My buddy is coming over tomorrow to help. He replaced cv joints last fall in his sportsman so it shouldn't take long.

just pop it back in and then keep an eye on it and make sure it stays in. if it keeps popping out you have to much lift.

Thats what I am going to do. I don't think it is the lift. To pull the strut and spring out to put the spacer on you really move the a=arm down several more inches than once you have the lift on and fully exteneded.

Ok I am done, got the cv joint back in with the help of a friend and the new tires and rims mounted.




Don't need the spacers the front tires just work without them

Looks good. Those tires look freakin huge for some reason!

Looks great! I like those tires!

Looks real good Hoojs!!!! Also looks like your ready to ride!!!!
