  • tail lift for 95' kat?????? can any one help?

    Hi, I really want to lift the back end on my 95 kat 600 but can't find any jack-up/tail lift kits. Has anyone done this or can recommend a reasonably simple alternative!?!?!
    all suggestions appreciated!

      option #1....Make shorter dogbones 10mm less between the holes will give around 30mm at the rear

      option #2 .... make ajustable dogbones then mess around with your ride height to your hearts content

      Warning thwe above options require patience & a small amount of fabrication skill

        option #3 - cut the lower brace on the subframe, bend the upper bars slightly, insert new material between lower cuts and weld back to raise the tail but keep your suspension stock.

          Use a smaller, non centred font. It's always worked for me anyway

              Since it is a pre98 600...those are the curved dogbones with bearings...so make sure if you change them out you make sure clearance doesn't become an issue...also the rear frame is part of the main frame so other than cutting it and re-welding it I don't know of any other way of lifting it..are you looking to do a SF style rear??
