Title: GOT MY NEW WALKER EVANS SHOCKS ON THE RZR LAST NIGHT!
Post by: r6realtor on September 23, 2008, 10:54:02 AM
Well they finally came in last night, they were actually a pretty easy install except for the rear a-arm guards as you can see I had to chop them up pretty good to make room, the dremel and grinder weren't doing the job so I had to bust out the saw zaw(spelling?) then finish up with the big grinder. I only had a chance to take it in a couple of ditches and the street but the ride I can tell is much nicer and makes you want to jump it because it so soft. Right now it looks like I have about 11" of clearance in the rear and 12" in the front, I did get the heavier duty springs from walker evans though, anyway heres a couple pics hope to do some testing in the coming weeks.

not really, just a couple of ditches and the street but I can tell you that I can hit those ditches and fly over the colverts 10x faster than I used to!

Cool. I guess they are worth the money.

Well when I had my rhino the absolute best upgrade I ever did to it was the Bilstien shocks I put on it and that doesn't have half the speed or power that this rzr does so I would imaginge this should be an awesome ride once I get them dialed in.

Hey buddy! I definitely will, how that rhino doing? I looked through one of your photo albums last week from your trip to brimestone??? I think it was called, it looked awesome, you guys seem to be really enjoying that thing!

Got any helpfull tips to set these new shocks up? these have the ressy's on them with the compression adjustment and I am trying to dial them in.

I must say that we had a blast up in Tenn. with the Rhino. It exceeded every expectation we had and then some.
From experience I would not know on a side x side but I would set the compression to the softtest setting and increase it only if its starts bottoming out a lot.
