I need a set of JD A-Arms for my Raptor 660. I assume my existing 660 shocks will work with the standard travel +2 JD A-Arms? Will my 450 resi shocks fit the Raptor 660 JD A-arms +2 without modifications? I assume my brake lines are long enough for the +2? I assume the Raptor 660 arms look like this picture? http://www.jdperformance.net/pics/arm4.jpg
That is the exact color I am looking for also.

Hey Dynomite. The stock shocks will fit same with the 450 ones. Your brake lines will reach also. The arms you posted are the long travel ones. The standard travel ones look like the ones on my quad a few post's up.

I am looking at your JD Performance A-Arms in black? You have resi shocks....so I assume for my Raptor 660 the JD Performance +2 will take the 450 resi shocks? So.....these are the long travel.....which I want standard travel...what color are these in this picture http://www.jdperformance.net/pics/arm4.jpg since I would want the same color in standard travel +2.

Does anyone realize that if you get a 17.5" shock verses a 18.5" shock the only difference in wheel travel is the thickness of a match pack? I got this directly from JD.

Yes mine are black.The resi shocks will fit yours too. But the 450 ones will lower the front end a little. If you didnt want it lowered look for the 700 SE shocks. Im not sure on the color. Id have to ask Dave@JD

My original 660 shocks are 15 1/2 " eye to eye...my 450 resi shocks are 15 5/8" eye to eye.....so 450 shocks should raise the front end a bit on my Raptor 660....I assume standard, +1 or +2 make no difference in front height...just width.

the 450 shock springs arnt as stiff i think thats why it will lower it just a little, sell them bad boys and get yourself a set of 700SE shocks you will be happy

I might just do that......but then again I do not want to make my 660 a better ride than my 700....LOL.
