I started off with a basic 700-4 new. added razor 550/570 rear shocks to the front to get adjustability. not sure if they are any better than stock. an inch or so short of stock. I added strong made strut relocation brackets which was a bit of a pain, mostly because the factory rear shocks are long enough to really make getting the mounting bolts in difficult . as a side note my sway bars are unbolted and zip tied up and have been since purchased. the ride seemed a bit better with the new front shocks then with the strong made lift it did seem smoother but not so much the average rider could tell in my opinion. overall for the cost im ok with the ride and I can adjust the fronts. I added 27 inch tusk terrabite front 9 wide and rear 11 wide with stock steel wheels cause I like the steel wheels and wanted to keep the larger rear tires for flotation, gravel bars and snow. the stock tires on the front wore down at 1000 miles so I wanted something more capable for the majority of our use. we do a lot of just paved and gravel roads. At the finish I gained an inch or so in the front and a bit more in the rear, feels more stable than stock and in off camber and at speed around courners. Just my take to get a bit better ride and an inch or so lift. I will add pictures as soon as I figure it out. added a bit of width which I believe the pioneer 700 needs. I may do spacers in the future but for now the track width seems equal and I shouldnt need additional mud guards.
