My stock front shocks leaked all the oil out and was thinking about replacing with the m1 shocks from rough country. I was wonder what everyone’s expiernece was with these shocks and how long they lasted. Also was wondering how much they actually lift the Sxs if they will lift the full 2” as advertised then I will ditch the bracket lift that I have and eventually get some arched a arms

The lift is "controllable" by you; the user. You can adjust the preload and create lift.

The general consensus is that people like them.

I am not sure if anyone on here has been able to do a direct side by side comparison of brands to the M1.

I drank the koolaid last fall and got the M1's, couldn't be happier with them and a big improvement over the stock shocks. Took a little bit to get the preload right for MY machine but am very happy with the shocks. With my preload I gained about 1 1/4" to 1 1/2" of lift.

I also use the M1 shocks. They raised my P1K about an inch as I had added a winch, front bumper and dual batteries. Definitely get rid of the lift. I’m very happy with mine.

I think I need to do this too…. Done all the lights and winch, but need better shocks From my stock tire/wheel/shock setup.

Winch no winxh, 2 batteries or one. Stock shocks are junk and suck.
That said, foax shocks willget u a higher lift with more to spare and u can rebuild and fill the canister with gas if and when u ware them out. RCyou cant. Just food for thought. But anything is better than stock

Thanks @Remington. Yeah, I have a winch, single battery, and stock junk shocks/tires.
