Don't know if anyone has seen these, or even if they have already been posted, but I thought I would share for those maybe looking to lower their '95+ KDX. Says stock and up to a 4" drop. https://soupysperformance.com/products/ ... ring-links

I don't know if Id trust something like that, looks to be just a couple of Grainger catalog heim joints with a coupler nut.

Re: Unique Lowering Links
If you look at their website they are not heim ends. They look to be machined so a normal KDX linkage bolt sits down in to the ends.

Re: Unique Lowering Links
Ahh okay that’s better. Adjustable links would be great for testing different linkage ratios! once a good length was found, I’d assume you’d want to make it out of a piece of billet. Aside from that, not sure how much you’d be adjusting linkage length. Would be crucial to make sure both sides are adjusted precisely as well.

Re: Unique Lowering Links
Saw them in reviews on utube with nothing negative so far. A lower seat height and electric start and they could dominate the market all over again.. I'm sure the tree huggers would shoot it down big time..
