Difference between Viper and SX front end

[jwiedmayer]

I bought a sno-tek power rak front end from a viper and want to install it on a SX. I read in a Maxximum Snow article that there are slight differences between the sx and viper kits and Sno-tek says the same thing. So what do you guess think the differences are? I think the tall spindle of the viper trailing arm might change the geometry a bit. So I plan to swith to them. Are the bulk heads the same between the viper and Sx?

Any other ideas what could be different? I'll plan to ask sno-tek when I order a replacement radius rod.

Thanks J

SX to Viper the caster is 2 degrees different, different radius rods, different tie rods, and I believe different stabilizer bar also. And of course the spindles are different.

Radius rods and tie rods will not effect the sno-tek kit they get replaced. Maybe its the caster and spindle are enough to warrant different geometry.
