So have you had a chance to give it a good work out yet, and if so, besides the extra travel, did it improve stability?all in all definitely not a bolt on system and i still want to angle the fronts in an inch (move top mount) but this was so worth the little bit of work
I hope it holds up to your riding. I'm not sure that one cross member can support the impact of both shocks where you relocated the tabs without further bracing material. But time will tell and hope it works out for you.came out good thoView attachment 15225
i thought about that also i did have a heavy wall c channel to put on top for extra bracing but it was alittle to short so i have to get another lenght of it todayI hope it holds up to your riding.

a "good" work out no not yet but i did take it for q few quick loops in the trails next to my house the rear feels amazing and the fronts are alittle stiff im hoping either the springs will settle in a bit or i still want to angle the tops in some so i still have playing to do but so far they have been greatSo have you had a chance to give it a good work out yet, and if so, besides the extra travel, did it improve stability?
Ok sounds good. After you've got them mounted just the way you want them, think them best, of course I'll be interested if it improves the stability, and makes this notoriously "tippy" machine less tippy, that will be a breakthrough for P-5 technology!a "good" work out no not yet but i did take it for q few quick loops in the trails next to my house the rear feels amazing and the fronts are alittle stiff im hoping either the springs will settle in a bit or i still want to angle the tops in some so i still have playing to do but so far they have been great
LOL the term "Tippy" or less tippy to be more precise is very subjective. The machine may experience less body roll due to firmer suspension but the width, height, and center of gravity are virtually unchanged thus you will never defeat the laws of physics, with the shock you may just less of a leaning (warning) before it goes over.Ok sounds good.

Of course it's subjective. Most everything discussed here is. Are you denying that when compared to the UTV's with much greater articulation (shock travel) even of the same width, that the P-5's tippiness isn't more remarkable? And inquiring whether or not shock modifications improve stability, isn't quite the same as asking if the law of physics has been conquered, lol.LOL the term "Tippy" or less tippy to be more precise is very subjective.

Sounds less tippy already!oh i can already tell you the handling is amazing i was stuffing turns without any worries at all
