Bansh-eman Posted October 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 ill tell you i was kinda scetchy before i bought these, but now that iv got them, they got me sold. ill turn everyone i can to them, your not going to find any arm with this quality for 350 bucks. im one of those guys thats always spent the extra mony for the name brands, but now im starting to go with the off brands and seeing they are just as good, and at times even better. these guys with big names normally have shity customer service casue they already got the big name going for them, where as the little guy have to make a good product and give awsome service so they can compete with the name. iv asked the guy at wicked several questions over the last fews weeks and it didnt take more then a few hours to get a respones.

magiksc Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 So would 450 shocks be the good way to go with one of the wicked long travel kits? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What shocks are you guys running with these a-arms? im going to be running Marvin Shaw Hill Shooters now. So would 450 shocks be the good way to go with one of the wicked long travel kits? no, 450 shocks are not long enough to be on long travel arms. you need to get longer shocks or your bike is going to sit low.

Michael Jackson Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 450 shocks are longer than banshee shocks, so if you use them with standard +2 a arms it will make the quad sit higher up, and for the money people spend on these 450 shocks, then they pay to have them shipped , and revalved, dual rate spring coonversion maybe, by that time, your better off just buying new shocks that are built for you and your bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bansh-eman Posted October 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 The Works Pro Series front and the Quadstar rear is a good setup if your not looking to spend a fortune. They have better but I'm not sure what your budget is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
