Yea I know, it also depends on if the a-arms will mount the shocks right. If they are too long the wont. If they are to short they wont. If they are a little short or a little longer than stock they might. If most cases you buy a tad shorter shocks. Or buy shocks to accommodate your a-arms. Most make their quad sit lower. Which in most cases is a good thing.

haha the motor looks likes a little 80 in the pic, but it sure is as heavy as a 250, and for the radiator ima have the z400 plastics lifted at an angle in the front so that it kinda scoops the air, but yeah those are aftermarket z400 plastics i payed $115, they were a great deal.

Here is what I did. I plan to shape them more so they look and fit better. Zip ties and an old plastic box!
