Just rode mine for 3 days on my 163x3 Axys. I liked the 36" stance a lot. There are two downsides though. Having to transfer the heim/ball joints from factory arms to these is a huge PITA and also strongly detracts from the value of buying them (they are cheaper than other front ends, but they should be WAY cheaper). The other problem is they require a lot of material removed from the spindles, and the instructions are garbage so it's pretty much guess and check.

The right way to run this kit is to use zbroz spindles and shorten your ski shocks to 16.25". I really like how they handle with this set up.

I bought Exit shocks along with the 36" Zbros front end. Not sure of the length on the shocks, but I presume they sent me their 'ideal' length shocks.

I was going to run the Zbroz until I realized the geometry was no good with stock shocks. I couldn't choke down spending over another $k for the Exits. Kmods 37" seem to be liked on SW.

According to them you can still run the stock shocks with a 36" front end. Havent rode mine yet but the look and feel is already way better than stock sitting in the garage.

Please let me know how it works. I'm not interested in changing out my shocks either

I just put an Alt Impact 36 on my pro and was able to use sway bar and retain stock shock length. I would assume his Axys kit would be the same, no spindle BS or bushing pressing. Its also one of the better price points i believe. Z bros kicks ass if you can run their entire setup, just pretty spendy.
