If you plan on keeping the sled I would do the gas shocks for sure will make it ride much better. I would also put a set of plastic skies on it or at least some plastic ski covers on the skies.
ok i did it too both our machines, my friend bought the parts and i installed me. time will tell if the shocks make a difference.gas shocks. plastic ski skins. and a 07 seat ? it sits lil higher for my worn out hips.
