Here are a few photo's of my teryx with Long Travel From HRT and shocks from Steve Chase at makin Trax. It was put on the day before I left for Pismo so I still have adjustments to make with everyones help. Springs, some valving etc... However as anyone who knows who has switched over to LT night and day difference. Just wanted to show it off.


PS the pick going away from the camera was me heading back to camp for dinner I did not want to be late...HA HA

why do some long travel kits have that bend in the upper a-arm, the bend that dips down were the shock mounts up, just curious

I am just guessing it makes the shock mount above the arm instead of between the tubes....Todd or chris would have to answer that...

Bad ass.
Never seen pics of that LT kit before...those boxed arms look tough.
How are those shocks performing for you?

In this case it has to do with keeping the upper ball joint from binding throughout the suspension cycle. others it may be for a heim clearance issue.

these arms are all laser cut chromoly plate with inner plates welded into them, all Tig welded, and yes they are very tough. these are the same arms we race with. :D
