shock question????

If you have the Roktek lift, the oil reservoir can face the back and no need to mess with the coolant tank.

But you will need washers to make it fit in the shock mounts.

Thanks steve! It's those LTR shocks from WV HOT ROD RHINO.

GETERDUN.......how much spacing did you move the tank out?

Just a couple washers to clear the shock....

Ok here is the final on the shocks! After it stops raining I am going to take her for a spin and see!

Thanks for everyones help and tips! I greatly appreciate it!

Picture saves a thousand questions .

I test drove the RZR today and all I can say about these shocks is WOW!!!

My RZR rode like a cadillac! It drives like it it tons stronger now. It also rides ultra smooth!

Thanks WV HOT ROD RHINO for the shocks!!

Now with all the stuff I have done to it this weekend, it is finally an awesome RZR! The shocks and the jukebox work great!!

Now............

TBone you got any new Wheels & tires yet or you still running stock

im still running stock. I added the RZR S fender flares and my RZR looks kinda weird without a bigger tire. Thats my next project I can save up for. I have not made up my total mind on what to do on that. I have read too many debates on 12 vs 14.

Heck what do you prefer Bobby? I honestly have no idea what to buy for my RZR when it comes to tires and wheels

I'm going to have some 14" T7 Beadlockers for sale real soon with 26" Big Horns on them.

I have always ran 12's until this set I have now are 14" Hey I will sell you my wheels and tires so you can look like your hero Bubba...lol for a real real good deal they have 1300 miles on them they are 26/9/14 front 26/11/14 rear and the wheel lips are already beat to crap but if you buy new ones it only take a few rides to beat them up anyways.

Oh yea they only have one plug in the pass side rear tire

Well I am in the market. I am not going to buy anything til later though. I have spent all I am going to do for now.

I have a ton of improvements. Also Bobby I need to keep the smaller stock wheels and tires for the fall ride anyways. I want to keep the drivetrain light as possible to win the WV HOT ROD RHINO race.

NO NO Bobby! You have to keep your toys debt free! If not, there the first thing to go when things get tight.Thats what my buddy Dave Ramsey taught me. Plus it makes it easier to lie to the old lady about how much money you spent.

Ahem. No disrespect intended and I'm also one of those Polarizukis, but if I were you I'd specify the course and ask for a spot.

Are you guys putting them just on the front or all the way around? Ever since I got the EMP bumper and Viper winch, I am bottoming out more! Gotta fix this problem.

I am now running a set of those Suzuki shocks I got from James ( WV Hotrod Rhino ) on front & rear. I gotta tell you guys this is by far the best $500.00 I've ever spent on my RZR. Even with a 3 inch lift kit I was bottoming out bad with the old worn out stock shocks. I took the lift kit off when I put the new shocks on & I gained another inch of clearance. But now the ride itself is like night & day difference. I got off on some pretty bumpy stuff last weekend & could really open it up while keeping good control where as before I'd be bouncing all over the place. That real smooth ride was what I was really looking for & the extra clearance without a lift kit was just another big bonus. So here's A great big thanks to James ( WV Hotrod Rhino ) & Steve ( Finzup ) for fixing me up on this shock setup. guys

Glad we could help

how much ground clearance do you have now

I have an 08 RZR and I also have a set of 06 ltr 450 shocks and would like to know what springs you have been using? I know super ATV has a RZR replacement spring with 125 or 150lb. Have you been ordering the stock RZR spring? And if so what rate 125 or 150.

125# super atv on front and special ordered 200# for the rear

James thanks for the info, you've been a big help.

No problem ... anytime. We're putting them on the rear too, I have the 200 lb 11-1/2" rear springs & brackets in stock ... I had to have them special made by Cannon Springs.

Will the super ATV spring fit flat on the top of the shock where the spring adjustment nuts are? The stock RZR spring will not slide over the sleeve on the bottom of the lower nut with out mods. Is the super ATV spring a little bigger inside?

Can you revalve the LT450 shocks? And if so are they just oil filled or are they also gas charged?

I have your same springs(except they're 150#) and used a die grinder to bevel the top coil ID for the upper spring seat fit. You barely have to take off more than the paint. Also, I adjusted the nuts down 1/2" to get the pre-load I wanted(225#). I'll probably go a little further.

When you get ready to buy rear springs, ask James what he thinks about 12" 225#. You'll have more pre-load capability.
