Yes very much so. Remember 9 people lol. We always have different loads. Not sure I'll do rears yet. I'll get a good feel for the front pretty quickly and decide then but we've wanted fronts for a year and a half

It looks like the shocks will ship on Friday. They are in stock in all the warehouses, a few hundred sets.
Was told 28 sets showing currently. Weird but maybe he was off.

Yes I think in warehouse 10 there is 28 sets for the 3 seat plus probably some for the 5 seat too. One warehouse back east had over 200 sets for the 3 seat.

How are you finding this info? It doesn't show up on any parts site and my dealer still can't see the parts either.

A generic set of QS3's has a $1600 price on Fox's website. My dealer said he could beat that price significantly, so maybe the factory Fox shocks will be very affordable.

Apparently there is a component to the shocks that being held up at the moment and will not release until complete. Looks like the 5th possibly and aren't taking any more orders till then is what I got but they are distributed waiting on that. Maybe this is only ones from local warehouse not positive on that. They're coming soon

They have a few hundred in stock and the paperwork was supposed to be finished on Friday. Wouldn't surprise me if another few days delay. The spring rate and dampening is different from the 3 seat to the 5 seat so they should be dialed in pretty good. I really needed them on the last ride.

We need reports on the improvements. I know it won't handle like the long travel RZRs, but would like something better than I have

You can ride in mine whenever we both have time smitty. I definitely don't have the front dialed in yet but it's better than it was for sure.

Well the same setup was night and day on the 700 I can't imagine this to be different. Fox is a huge company with lots of money for R&D and worked with Honda on these. I remember seeing pics of these well over a year on this exact machine so there is some time spent on development. Im positive any of the shocks available are much much better then the stockers. I'm sure they will be just fine Smitty
