kfx/lt 80 long travel kit

Posted by: cmiller120

that kit looks bad ***** a little to pricey for me though had the guy send me more pics of it looks great but damn to much money

Posted by: hanzito

it seems like it is about 100 to 150 too much

Geez! I thought it was 399 for all of it.
Now I see it's just the a-arms. Then 130 for the rear end THEN you have to have the modified CT pipe for 260.
I question their numbers. In my jig, I measured the rear wheel travel at 5 inches STOCK.
I'm also told that most good shocks start out at 13" not 11 3/4.
I'm also sure that extending the rear end will result in even faster case breakage.

i have heard teh 13inch thing before also. could hte case be braced ot make it more reliable. or is it just a weak point htat will have to be worked around.

It's a weak point. I/others support the cases and they still will break with enough abuse.
