Over those two, I also would choose LSR...

Re: CST or LSR? help

Im Partial to my utvcrap.com 6" kit with Walker Shocks as I own UTVCRAP.com but I had the kit designed for me as I wanted the best money could buy so I went to the guys who where building the kits that where winning a crap load of races around the U.S. and not breaking and turned on a dime so yes XMF builds the RZR kit for us If I thought there was a better kit out right now I assure you I would I would be running it on my personal RZR ......so good luck and only you will know if you made the right choice

Re: CST or LSR? help

I think it's worth waiting a month or two for extra money to get a six or even an eight over kit. $4K is alot to spend when a true L.T. kit is only a couple of $k more.

Re: CST or LSR? help

Go 6" for sure and I will say my UTVCRAP kit is awesome. Best money I spent so far. I did a lot of research before buying. But you need to do the same, this is a big decision.

Re: CST or LSR? help

$4K is to much to spend for kit that can use stock shocks and does not give much wheel travel. Buy 2 inch wheel spacer's and flip you rims and run like that until you can save up for a true L.T. kit. Before I got my L.T. kit I was amazed at stability gained for such litle money spent.

Re: CST or LSR? help

one is you don't get that much of travel on the front, second when it comes to tuning its hard to reach for the font suspension valve and third if you don’t get rid of the front sway bar and do some fabrication work like cutting the front sway bar bracket before you put the suspension on you might damage your shocks when you test it.

What?? Not much travel and uses stock shocks??

How about it uses "stock length" shocks, not stock shocks, and gets almost 13" of travel all the way around. More than enough for most RZR owners. Even LSR will tell you the longer arms are really targeted for guys running MX courses. We are landing 50-60 footers at 8 feet in the air like butter on MTS kits with Elkas in the dunes...

I should have said can use stock shocks, I just think that you can almost match the performance of mid travel with spacer's, flipped rims and a set of properly valved (for extra leverage) stock length shocks for closer to $1000 than $4000.
