P700 Looking for more lift better ride and clearance

I removed mine. Many people have. The difference is night and day. Throw some boards out in the yard and drive over them. Disconnect the swaybar and drive over them again. (You can just unbolt the linkages and use a ziptie to hold it out of the way for this test)
Disconnecting the swaybar lets the independent suspension be "independent".
A lot of 700 owners have done this.

WARNING: The swaybar is there for a reason. Its primary purpose is to prevent overturn when cornering at high speeds. I don't drive fast.

Make sure the an arms are forward offset. When I had my 700 I put 28" ITP Blackwaters on 14" 5+3 offset rims. The 700 did not like that offset on those rims. If you stay stock rims then I would stay with stock width on the tires. Good luck

Good info.

Yeah I’m no speed demon either. I’m going to try it. Thanks for the info. I use my 700 mostly for work on the property and cruising. I ride my Rubicon for fun.

No lift but shocks were made to give me about an inch lift. The danny Duncan arms are more than the moorhead and use hiem joints in stead of bushings. Either one will work and give more than enough clearance for 28s. I could have run 30s with no issues what so ever. From different angleView attachment 443091

love it.

Well got it all put together wasn’t too hard. Here’s the list -
-Moorhead racing forward arching A arms
- wheels 14 inch tires Vampire 2 27” very aggressive heavy though
- Fox podium 1.5 shocks adjustable very nice shocks well made great ride 3 different setting. Got about 2 inches of lift.
- lower Keller ball joints. I returned the uppers. Should have just left stock but they’re well made and serviceable
- instead of the rhino axle I took apart and cleaned out the cv and put the oem Honda boot kit on a collapsed outboard boot needed a pair of Oetiker boot clamp pliers good tool to keep or lend to a friend
- super Atv rear high clearance a arms.

I learned a lot from this forum. Made some mistakes but that’s how you learn. Very happy with my P7 got about 13.5” of clearance at the lowest point. It can keep up with the Rubicon and the outlander now without getting stuck( not in speed lol ) . I own a large tract of land in the Adirondacks upstate NY and ride old logging trails skidders used to ride on with huge boulders in the middle of the trail. Cut down about 30 small trees this weekend and dragged them with the P7 to the burn pile . Didn’t use the winch once. In the past I’d use the winch 2 times a day easy.
