How much longer are the Viper radius rods than the srx rods?
If any one has a set around I would appreciate it if you would measure them, and let me know.
I want to make a set for my Long travel SRX.
Thanks,
Jim

I've got a set of viper trailing arms and radius rods for sale, but I can take a look. It might be cheaper for you to make me an offer on my rods and ends than to make your own. It would probably be easy for for me to sell just the trailing arms later. send a PM or let me know.

You want about 16-3/4" end of rad rod to end of rad rod. I just did a BLT wide front end on mine. You want to end up about 18-5/8" centre of eye to centre of eye. You will also need longer steering rods, and a spacer on each side for the sway bar.

SRXER you rock.
Thanks for reply.
I put some 04 viper shocks on the front and 04 viper skid out back.
The front springs seem a little weak. Any suggestions?
Did you loose much top speed with the Ripsaw?
P.S. Nice Avatar pic.
Thanks,
Jim

I haven't run the Ripsaw much yet, but I figure the Expert will pretty much offset the loss from the big lugs, man the track rolls easy around it. I went with Works on the front of mine. Maybe you could score some new springs reasonable for your Viper shocks? Is that your Banshee?

SRXer that is a Suzuki LT250R with a MXZ583 rotax
That is my "LT583" . I live in southern Ontario where normally the rivers and lakes freeze over for 3 months but we dont get much snow.
So my ATV was not quite fast enough for those 75 mile lake runs so I built this thing my buddies call the creation.
It will run 105 MPH all day long, put the flapper to the bar and hang on.
I was at a drag race event recently and I took it down the quater mile
it went 96MPH in the eigth mile and 102 in the quater @ 12.5 seconds
I drive by most of the sleds around here.
It is no where near as fun as my SRX but when there is no snow I still wanna ride out front in the clean air.
4 strokes are like tampons every pussy has one
Thanks, again for the info
