Any one have feed back on the Pioneer Performance Wide front end kit installed on an '04 Warrior ?

45" kit
I have to say my Rx-1 is the best handling sled I have ridden with the wide front end kit from pioneer. There is almost no ski lift and I can power thru turns without having to muscle the sled so much. Compared to last year when I had springs, 13mm sway, and updated links there is so much improvement I cannot tell you enough. I was so fatigued after riding the sled last year having to hang out to keep it from tipping over. It actually rides better then the apex!!!!!! The Apex GT has a bit more ski lift than mine, but I cannot tell you about setup since it was a floor model that my dealer and I were testing compared to mine. I will admit it's got the wide front end, 06 RTX mono-ra skid, and simmons skis.
The only down side is the really wide stance.
Hope it helps, but I would do it again in a minute. My only regret is that I did the front end and the skid at the same time so I cannot tell you with the Proaction what it will be like.

- Which one? I have 6
I've got it on mine and it rails. C&A Pros, 13mm sway bar, heavier rate springs worked well but this year went with the Olins on the front. Better overall shock and does not fade as much as the stockers over hard riding. Best handeling sled I have owned. I even prefer it over my sons GT.

Got the Wide front end kit put on , (wish I knew in advance a set of deep , thin walled shockets were needed for install) anyone find caps to seal up the ends of the arms to prevent snow and ice acumulation?
