RX1 suspension swap

[builtnotbought]

I have a 2003 RX1 with a 121, i was going to buy extension to make it a 136. But then again i would like to completly swap the suspension to have something a little better. What kind of suspension should i be looking at for the easiest and cheapest way of installation ? ski-doo, artic-cat......

Ski Doo, Cat, Polaris. Actually each brand has a few popular suspensions that have been used. Suit yourself if you have a favorite or even experience with one of them. There are plenty of guys that have done most of them that you can get mounting dimensions from - if you can't find them here already. Actually, I don't think there's another chassis out there, of any brand, that has had this many different conversions done on them. For Poo, check out: http://jbshocks.com/tech.html

There's even some tips that might apply to any of the other conversions there as well.

When shopping - make sure you understand what shocks are on the suspension you are talking about. They can represent half or more of the value in a skids price. Doing some homework here ahead of time will pay!
Best of luck!

Suggest you play with/figure out the "search" feature here. There's a ton of stuff here on TY regarding both tracks and suspensions. You're in the right place. If you have questions regarding anything specific don't be shy. Post away!
