I have a 02 Viper with a 151 track on it. I removed the transfer rods to improve the weight transfer but I have not installed a Mountain Performance transfer kit with the straps and I am wondering if anyone could tell me if there would be any problems caused by not doing this? I have pushed and pulled on the suspension all ways to try and find a problem but I can not see any. Any insight would be appreciated.

I was told that if you remove the rods all together you will need to install some sort of spacers, I was also told that the MPI kit will keep your suspension from folding over. I bought the kit it is only $55 and you still can adjust your transfer to whatever you want.

What he said
Itll work fine, took mine off 5 years ago and it has never folded over. Make spacers to put in place of where the transfers hooked on, and if you really want to for insurance, get a piece of strap from anywhere( I used an old gym bag strap on a friends), use a heated nail to make nice holes in the strap, load the suspension a little and rivet it up, youre good to go.

I kind of figured it would be fine because I could not make the suspension go in that direction no matter what I tried. I made a limiter strap kit like MPI offers for less than $10 just because everyone on here swears I would have issues. It is good to hear that someone has went for a while without problems though. I made the spacers by cutting up a set of non-adjustable rods off of my old 97 700SX. thanks for the insight

can you just take the adjuster nuts off and leave the rod in to keep it from over extending?

I thought about that a couple of times also. ??????
