RTV 500 Heavy Struts

[DIXIEDOG]

Someone here must have installed the heavy duty front struts on their RTV 500, I was curious if when those shocks were installed if the front ride height went up at all? If so how much 1/2"-1" ?

It goes up an inch or 2 in the front..Rides rougher too..Keep the soft ones for the summer

Thanks for the info, I'll make sure to set my old ones aside for the summer playing.:thumbsup:

is there anything to raise the rear as well? the ground clearance on this thing is ridiculous. i have been stuck 4x in a year due to the frame bottoming out

Not to any meassurable amount...There may be small lift kits out there. I never looked. Didn't want to impact the COG on mine. I really never had a clearance issue when i had mine. Never went into the bogs though.
