I've been on the fence for a while now, trying to figure out what I want to do with regards to "fixing" my stock RZR (non S) shocks. At 500 km, the springs are sagging too much for my liking and I'm losing valuable ground clearance out on the trail. I thought I was going to go with Makin' Trax progressive springs, but I'm still stuck with the stock shock bodies and limited preload adjustments even though I have heard tons of positive remarks with these springs.
A good friend of mine has the ELKAs on his RZR and is very happy with them.
I've spent a great deal of money in the USA for my RZR and numerous mods (I live in Canada), and with the far and few Canadian manufacturers of offroad gear, I decided to sink my dough into ELKA (based out of Quebec).
It's very easy to get into the thousands of dollars for aftermarket shocks...and I didn't want to go that route, so I decided to get the Stage 1 shocks for sidexsides. The fronts (E36)only have preload adjustment, and the rears (E36R) are dual springs with rebound adjustment. These are the specs for my customs built shocks - spring rate on the front is 275pnds/in and rear is a dual rate set up (2 springs on the rear shocks), top spring is 900pnds/in and main is 250pnds/in

I'm looking forward to getting these shocks bolted up...I will be sure to post pics once I get them in a couple of weeks.
Anyone else have these shocks and care to let me (us) know what you think of them???
Thanxs
