P700 Alternative shocks

[Rinconruss]

Let's just state the facts, the shocks on the P700 are just bad. The front end bottoms out way to easy. Fox and Evans make great stuff but I can't bring myself to pay between $1200 and $4000 for shocks on a machine that I paid $10k for. Anybody find other shocks that work? I read somewhere that the front RZR shocks fit perfect on the rear of the P700. Anybody found something that works?

If you can find a set of 2015 and newer fronts for really cheap, they were supposed to be better. And was it Can-am something shocks that were being used by many?

I've got a complete set off of a 2016 700. Which still suck. I changed mine out at 6xx miles. Are you coming to the pioneer takeover in April?
Yes the CanAm Commander xt800/xt1000 will bolt right on to the fronts, the rears will fit once you've changed the bushings out. There is a huge post on here about the shock swap with all the needed details. Commander shocks are a must for the 700

Just did the Commander swap as well. Definitely a must. Rears require new bushings. but was easy enough to do. Thanks to all the people that did this and provided the information.

Can't make to take over. Wish I could... I am gonna start shopping around for some Commander shocks. Thanks everyone!
