I'm going to send my shocks to Ron next week for some of his tripple rate magic and want to know,how the JB modded a arms work with his setup....

What would be the benefit of spending the $350 on the a-arm mod,is it worth it after Ron re-works the shocks? Or am I just throwing money away?

I have not run WP's with the modded arms but I ran my Axis with stock and now JB modded arms. The shock stroke feels a lot smoother and seems to give a more plush feel. The lower arm gusset he installs also helps cut out flex quite a bit.

JB mods: definitely improves the ride "plushness" you will need more spring rate as a result of the increased leverage,

Ok so anotherwords,he would have to set it up differently then if I had stock a arms..Cool thanks!

Yes, the leverage ratio changes from approx 1.5:1 to 1.9:1. Also, if I remember correct the extended shock length needs to be 18 5/8" but it would be best to check with JB.

The JB modified stock arms are setup to suit the Stock WPS length shocks

Ron's setup worked awesome on the first ride.Fairly plush yet able to take big hits off jumps.The tripple rate setup is the bizz!

Thanks Ron!
