I have a set of Blaze front Ohlins and a typical rear Ohlins.I would like to convert them to ZPS,do you do that?If so,do you have a ballpark price?Thanks.

No I havent gotten into doing spring conversions.TCS makes a nice conversion.Not sure they have ever done a blaze shock though.I did ZPS a set of Blaze myself for use on my Raptor.Worked well.I used 2002 Arctic Cat SnoPro zps springs and collars which I believe I machined to fit.Sorry I cant be more help.

Thats okay.Any other tips in lowering the ride height?

I do have two TCS converted rear shocks. Would part with one for $150 shipped. Not a bad deal when you look at the cost of the conversion kit alone is around $275.

$150 is a steal! grab it fast!

That would leave the front end high.I talked to tcs,$450 to convert to zps.Gotta get my motor work done first.I do have a lowering kit for a V-force I recently sold,might try to retro fit to see if it will work.Thanks for the offer Peter.

You can adjust the preload of it to get your ride height correct. While you might not use it now its too good of a steal to pass up. I already have 3 zps rear shocks, so no need for another. haha
