Are the lengths of the 520 shocks the same as the 500? I have Walkers on my 2017 P500, and the new P520 looks inviting as a upgrade. I’d like to swap the Walkers off my P500 if I decide to pull the trigger.

Big improvement? Looking at doing this to our 520.
On the WE site it shows the rears have a remote reservoir only. Where did you mount that?
How long did it take to get yours, website says 8-12 weeks to ship. Thanks

Took 9 weeks from the day i first placed my order im also in canada so it took an additional week in customs for clearance it help take out the sharp joints over rocks I still have more testing to do, I'm also running 26 inch tires and I've changed out the final drive gearing to go faster think I top out over 80km/h with a clean airfilter and two adults in it

Hey there. Nice setup. I'm also in Canada and looking to do final gearing change on mine. Could you elaborate on the parts used and steps to change final gearing?
Thanks

P500 - A faster P5, it is possible.....gearing increase Its the exact same procedure as outlined here you still need to order a speedo drd and i set mine at -12.5% which is just about perfect, only big issue i found was my gears were back ordered and took nearly 4 months to arrive, the dealer even put them in under an emergency order for me as well, now only if my air filter would come in Id be styling

If you look around Amazon you can find some very nice clamps for the reservoirs fairly cheap. They come in a few different mount styles
