Not sure exactly what i think I was duning at the jaggedx crash with a guy with that kit and it didn't seem to work to bad but the rear spring rate was only something like 175lbs and it was obviously to soft. I know they have added some bracing don't know if it was enough. What made you choose this kit over FST??

Re: DFR 6" LT kit

I recently put the Elka's on my machine and have no complaints at all. I would say they were the best investment on the machine yet.

Re: DFR 6" LT kit

Did the Guy your talking about have ELKA shocks or the fox shocks I know DFR tried the FOX shocks first. I quess the reason I went with DFR over FST was Todd @ DFR seems like he has a lot of desert racing exp he also wanted to sell ithe worked with me a little if I was willing to get a few mor DFR items I also got the full exhaust clutch kit and EFI programmer. I know you sell FST stuff and I really liked ol Seth overthere at rigid nothing personall thats just the way I went.It's great so many guys are building stuff for he RZR It's gotta be helping the economy or at least the Credit card company's. Shane (guess i'm not the only one)

Re: DFR 6" LT kit

if Elkas are an option go with them, they are worth every penny. I have the elites on my rhino and they are sweet.
