Hello! Did not know this site existed! i have been on snowmobile fanatics but my Yamaha ? hardly ever answered. My ? is will a 05 Warrior suspention go under(and work) my 1997 Sx 600? I would like to get a little more travel ,better ride ,even if just a shock upgrade would do I would go that way! Thank you!
 
Welcome! this site is 10x better than snowmobilefanatics, they are a bunch of polaris biased buttheads that pretend they aren't. Enjoy your stay.!
 
yes the warrior suspension will bolt in, but then you also have to get a longer track. Why not just get either a long travel kit from Pioneer performance or Maxximum performance, or just by long travel shocks, limiter straps, and control rod spacers either off of someone on this site or ebay? Much less hassle for the same or better ride.

I have talked to Max per about there shock upgrade $350 & for not a whole lot more I found that warrior suspention but I am open to anything! See I live here in KY so I have no one to help me at all so anything I plan on tackeling it is all me! Thank you!

you can get long travel shocks from a viper or sxr for much less than that though

Well I will start to search! my sled is a 1997 but it looks like a 99 the guy put all the 99 upgrades on it, but the front shocks are not the clicker they are the ohlins probably need to ship to someone and have them redone!
 
if the front shocks are ohlins KEEP THEM! Just long travel the rear however you plan on doing it, and then put advant-edge extensions on the front ohlins, or get a set of drop brackets, or you could even leave the front at stock height if you so chose.
 
Well the guy at max per acted like these ohlins (not being clickers) were not as good but I figured I could have them rebuilt!
