Hey anyone I have a question.Does anyone know if a set off piggy back shocks that are 18"center to center will work on the Mach .it looks like mine are 15"center to center and I have a chance to get some piggy backs if they will work.Any thoughts would be great

They will work, although you'll notice the sled is a little less planted in the corners and you may have to play with the rear skid (limiter strap, preload and torsion springs) to get the sled to feel balanced again.

I put them on a week ago, put on 720 km, I loved them. Brought the front bumper up 2 to 3 inches. I drilled and move the front of the skid down. Now the snow is gone, so I need to look after the back side. I have put the 2up springs in the back but the shocks are poor. I am not light (255 lbs) and pack gear on the back. I would like to know if anyone has install the X package piggy back kit

If so how did they like it.



So if you ride rough trail, and give up a little high speed corners I think you would like the 18 inch center to center shocks.
