Thanks.

Better off buying an extended axle instead of spacers. The stress that spacers put on an axle bends them very easily. After you bend one, you will wish you bought an axle to begin with..

As for the front.. Save up for extended arms. spacers change the steering geometry too much and whatever stability you might gain from the extra width you will lose turning control. The wheels pivot further off axis than they would sitting over the hub the way they are designed.

I would start with an axle first and take it from there. that would be the best improvement to do first. No shock mods are necessary either.

Once you go wider in the front you need to change the shock valving as well because now you are changing the overall wheel travel.
