Does anyone know of any companies who are doin conversions for the ltr shocks, such as a dual rate/ssd conversion?

Posted by: kyleschonert

I know the iShock company is. And I think TCS is. I saw some rebuilt ones at Loretta's this past weekend and they looked to be TCS. But I am not possitive.

What all is done on the conversion? Do you have any pics?

Posted by: jfarrar30

revalve and removed some internal spacers to add length.about 3/4 of an inch (up front).i can get some pics but looks basically like a stock shock without the plastic black piece.depending on your weight the stock spring will most likely work for you just as well as any tripple rate spring.gt thunder is offering a dual rate spring as well.

We will be offering a triple rate front and dual rate rear conversion for the LTR very some. The conversion will look very similar to or trx450r and YFZ450 kits. The conversion for the ltr will include new valve bodies internally in the shocks which not only allow for better valving but also allow us to increase the front and rear travel. As with all of the conversion we do here at C&D Racing the spring curve will also be tunable by the user( this is a feature you can not get from a progressive spring) We also will be rebuilding the rear compression adjustor to make it more functional. As soon as this is available in the next couple of weeks I will post more info

Here is a link to the new dualrate kits we have for the YFZ www.exriders.com/vbb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=249553
