I was kicking around this idea yesterday and wanted to know if anyone else had been thinking of this.

for the IRS models does anyone think it would be possible to have a-arms made to move the wheels rearward? My big question would be do you think the joints would bind on a +1 or +2?

I've noticed since the 540 kit that launching has become a very sensitive situation. regardless of if I'm in the sand or the dirt I've noticed that my 2nd gear starts either bog out or wheelie very hard. Anyone else have this issue? I'm wondering if the cheap fix would be to use a 6 pack rack as a wheelie bar and just ride it till she sits back down.

Probably a bad idea unless you want to tear up your frame!

Why no just fab up a removable wheelie bar for the rear? Remove it when you are not dragging!

that's a pretty good idea, especially since the IRS has so many exposed frame points on the back of the quad.
