What do you think? That is alot of extra leverage on the Pogos. I was thinking with the Vmax Pogos on my Phazer 2 I would only need about 2 inches more to match my M10 skid. I may have a guy who can machine the whole thing from the bottom part to the ski.

I can understand wanting to keep the balance with the higher M10 and as you said there is alot of force with longer leverage so, mounts would need to be made strong.

Looked fine before he did all that. When you sit on the sled it sinks a few inches so would it not be level then?

You are correct that the rear suspension will sink a few inches. That is called sag. But it also means the front will sink. I would like to try and have it as leval as possible.

Front wont sink anything like the rear though. Looks goofy to me.

Putting a lot of faith in those extensions... guess it all depends on the fabricator and the rider/terrain, wish I could throw a good suggestion in here, but that is a tough one...

The problem I see is the front ski brackets. Still has limited travel. I would think adding the extended travel shocks would have been better. The rear drop brackets are fine if located correctly. The height is a little tall for me. I am interested, as I want to lift and extend a 540 V max

I think what he did to the front is great, just as long as he doesn't turn or hit any bumps.

The only optional extended front TSS I know of (not that I have been around the block and know all) is from a Vmax. If there is another available, I would love to know. I'm sure bender and all those guys back in the day made all kinds of cool stuff but finding any of it is the tough. Then the real problem is the condition of the parts being that old.
I am putting the vmax TSS on. This should give me about 2". I am just looking for a little more (never said that before) to balance it out.
