Long Travel Shocksfor Yamaha Rhino

When developing our Long Travel Suspension Systems,we first weigh each vehicle at all four corners.We can determine the weight difference due to engine,drive train locations.This will allow us to determine what Spring rate and interal valving to start out with.

Shock Performance

Because Shock performance is one of the most important parts in your Suspension.This does'nt mean that you have found the right combination of Spring Rates and internal Shock valving.It's just a good place to start.

AXEL'S

Some companies sell there long travel kit's with what is known as 300mm axles with the the use of your stock cv's that you the owner have to take apart and reassemble them.

SHAWZ METAL FAB INC. prefers to use the 40 degree high angle axle's and CV'S made of the highest quality components.Axles can break when abusing your long travel Rhino suspension.Some axle manufacture"s cost more than other's.And there are new axle company's entering the market to compete against the most permanent leaders in the industry.With the same type of quality and warranty offered by the most expensive axle manufacturer.

CUSTOMER SERVICE

We are one of the few manufactures,who will stand behind our products.If for any reason you break one of our 4130 chromoly arms.We will replace the part no questions asked,at no cost to you!Replacement parts for our kits are readily available at our shop,or at any one of our dealers in CA.We at S.M.F. STAND BEHIND OUR MANUFACTURED PARTS,you have our family name on it!

Washington state is a state of mind... With the wide open places and over grown forests there is plenty of riding to be done.Up here there is plenty of deer trails,steep mountain sides just daring you to test your machine out. I came out here four years ago and have been just waiting to come back .

I contacted jim and some of our other customer's to see if they would'nt mind riding with us for the day. The types of utv's that they took along were a Kawasaki Teryx 6",Polaris RZR 6"and a 4"over kit,And course a Yamaha Rhino 6" long travel that we customized for thouse guys they didn't disapiont me they took us for the ride of our life!!!

jim has a Rhino 6"KIT 07 EFI, that rhino can climb some of the steepest mountain sides.and he was not worried about rolling to say the least.

jammie has the only pink arms we have ever had powder coated.That Polaris RZR,wow it fit's down some of the smallest trials even with it having a 6"long travel kit on it.

George has a camo Kawasaki Teryx with a 6"LONG TRAVEL SUSPENSION KIT on it.He raced jammie on the trails sorry to say he just owned her. He said his foot was to the floor the whole time but he sure was not worried about scraching it all up he said thats why its painted camo!!!

Rick has a polaris rzr 4", he was going down the smallest trails and would have had no problem chasing down a deer,which we saw plenty of.

I took some sweet pictures but, you know how the airlines are they lost my lauggage. maybe ill get some up if they ever return my bag!

(a special thanks to all of our customers for all the fun ! see ya next time.hopefully sooner than later. there's always this winter contact me.
