G4 Rear suspension upgrade

[motox54]

Hey everyone! So I just bought a set of Fox float Evols for the front of my 154 850 and I'm excited to see the performance gains over the stock front shocks however, I am now looking to upgrade the rear suspension. I would love to get rid of the torsion springs. Right now I think the two best options would be the Exit coil over upgrade for $699- $799 depending on exit series shock or Toms E motion. I think I could potentially buy the exit upgrade this season however If Toms is better then I might have to wait to next year. I was hoping those who have either of the set ups could provide me with some opinions or feedback on the set ups to help me find the best direction to go.



Info for suspension: Rider weight 205 geared up, Ex-Snocross racer so I love to jump and ride aggressive, Mainly ride off trail in U.P with one or two trips out west to Idaho a year. I currently have the T-motion "locked out" with a munster delete.

Both are good choices.
I personally like Toms stuff.

I also believe he is running a special on different kits. Some inventory over stock reduction. Worth a call.

X2 you already have floats on the front might as well keep them on the back.

This. Plus, at $1295 you aren't that far off the Exit option. It drastically improves the ride of the sled. I wouldn't go any other way.

I see on his site the 175 can’t be ordered with the lockout option is that just the website are not offered all together?

Just a website thing, I believe . I have lock out on mine.

I'd go with the coilover option if I were you.

Elka also now carries a coil over conversion. Good quality suspension!

Why do you say that? Have you had a bad experience with air shocks? The reason I ask is it seems a lot of people that bash on the fox air stuff are people who have never tried it.

I have a set of rear fox shocks if you're interested

give Raptor a good hard look and call Jake over there. I've had Tom's Kits and Exits and Raptor blows them out of the water by a long shot.

I've been running Tom's stuff for years on all my sleds. I think it's a must have for the G4 as the stock skid is horrible. I just got the lock out kit and have yet to run it but it looks like its going to be a game changer for the 154. I think for the money you can't beat Tom's stuff.
