Moose 2 inch lift

I had cranked the adjuster nut down on our sport shocks (rear) to try and get the ride height I was after. Since that did not work I installed the lift and left the shocks set where they were. After install I had 14 1/4" to the bottom of the hitch plate. Since that was more than I was after, I backed the adjuster off to factory setting and now have 13" with 25" tall tires.

i still dont get how yours is so much i cant remember what mine was but i remember talkin bout this with you a while back

^^it looks alot closer then it really is^^ (i'll try and get a bteer picture)

picture took with back tire off ground a good as i could get w/ no one to keep weight in the rhino from flipping

yup, i talked to the guy at Yamaha today... it's on back order, but he said they(Moose) told him the estimated shipping date is the 14th... that's not that bad of a wait, i guess.

only 2 more days aint bad at all...i bet your excited :face:

thats what they told me

called and got an update today.... est. shipping date is the 21st, tomorrow. so... i'll call back next tuesday and get an update.

irritates me that they don't call me and give updates... i've already paid, it's the least they could do.


anyways... i'll post when i get it.

they told me the 24th

is that Moose or the dealership craig? i guess it doesn't matter... as long as i get it within the next two weeks... i'm not waiting longer than a month. i'll go with another manufacturer if i have to...

me too !!! there out now :evil: u must have got the last one :pirat:

i can get them to you in 2 days for 150

Us receiving the lift in a timely manner came at a premium. We have had no chance to ride since it was installed. Not going to get to ride this weekend either. Might have to give the lift away to break the curse!!!! I want to ride. Hey Telli, you want a lift

i hated to give up on the order... but, i was hoping to have it by my birthday(today). not a big deal... but, waiting forever for a lift is... so, i'll just put the highlifter on and be happy. can't be that much difference.


one thing i found out about the highlifter is that it can be changed from 1-2inch depending on what you want. i thought that was cool. not sure if the guy was full of sh*t or not... but, i'll take his word for it.

happy birthday wheels...

I know it sucks when trying to order stuff for these toys and it doesnt pan out... best of luck.

thanks RC... appreciate it. yeah... i'm MR. Immediate Gratification when it comes to mods for the rhino...



maybe we can start a support group for that.... :D

1" or 2" .... must depend on the way the bracket is mounted. The Moose only fits one way.

Happy Birthday Wheels

yeah, that's what i was thinking Wingman...

thanks for the birthday wish.

i have a question concerning the install:

I tried last night and i couldn't get the shock compressed so it would fit. and the a arms wouldn't go any further down b/c of the axle. I tried zip ties and vice grips... with no luck. is there a secret???

i thought about keeping it on the ground and while the shocks are compressed a bit... putting some zip ties on the springs to keep them there. this would work, but i'm still not sure about the axle.

oh, and to those of you that don't want to grind... there is no grinding for this lift even though the directions say to. I guess they changed the 08's b/c the instructional pictures are different from my rhino.

any help would be appreciated...
