There should be an adjuster on the spring...the spring try cranking that up...I'm guessing he's had so much weight on there that he has compressed the spring...Other option is to watch the classifieds for a wreck or for someone who has upgraded and snag a stock shock cheap. :wink:

I go riding in that area a couple of times a year on bikes. There is a cross country ski resort just north of Flagstaff and we stay at the owners cabin just north of there...Beautiful area.

If you can get your ATV to Georgia...Atlanta area then no problem. For tie-rods, all I need are measurements or an old tie-rod and end sent to me in Iowa.

I manufacture tie-rods for several companies that are especially designed for the heavier 4X4 ATVs and larger sport ATVs. I'm constantly searching websites and forums for information on other makes...
