Grampaw is right, you little whippersnapper!:cussing: :cussing: :cussing:
The last picture is the night I finished putting in the ProAction. I had to take the mast off the bumper to put the chainfall on to raise the back.

Very nice Shark,
you have the PSI triple angle 47/44/39 helix along with the secondary spring from hell if you know what I mean.
That PSI setup works SWEET, huge wakeup call from the stock lack of backshifting, binding Yamaha setup!

Looks great!! I see your sled sits higher in the back than mine. Are your transfer rods longer than the ones I have on mine? Could this be why mine does not sit as high as yours?

[mark the shark]

rules - I was very happy with the performance improvement over the stock setup.
bly123 - I'm pretty sure my transfer rods are stock. I rotated my bolt pattern so that I could mount the rear bracket as low as I could so I could get more tunnel clearance. It looks like mine is about an inch lower than yours, which would raise the back bumper closer to 2 inches.

I`ve seen it in person, and it looks great!!, i crawled around the floor of his trailer checking it out (which was probley pretty funny looking LOL) but anyway, it is a kick azz sled!!

You were crawling around looking at my sled? Geez, I thought you were going to give me a piggyback ride. Good thing I didn't jump on!:D
The sled's in the barn now. The next time you come over we'll have to fire it up. I gotta think it's gonna sound good on that cement floor!

Check out this thread: http://www.vmax4.com/tech10wildmax/proactionWildmax.htm
I wish I had this information when I did mine. There are a couple of pictures with more dimensions that are missing from this thread. I'm not sure why they aren't here, but I have them in my laptop and can email them to you if you need them. You need to make spacers for the inside of the tunnel because the ProAction suspension is about 1" narrower than the Vmax-4 suspension, and you need to reinforce your tunnel to prevent it from cracking.
