Does this post http://www.vmax4.com/tech2.htm Still apply to a 2001 srx skid??? Did the skid change after 99?? I can get a 2001 skid for $100 with less then 3000 miles on it. This installation looks easy and it's time for a suspension upgrade.

lower W arm,check it all out good before install...

WHY WASTE TIME AND PUT IN A SKID WITH NO ADDITIONAL TRAVEL? YOU CAN CONVERT THE SRX SKID TO LONG TRAVEL VIPER SPECS BY CHANGING THE SHOCKS AND LIMITER STRAP. BETTER TO JUST LOCATE AN RX 1 SKID. FOR THE SAME EFFORT YOU WOULD HAVE A MUCH BETTER RIDE.

:agree: Same effort, might cost a few more $$ but will be worth it!

Is there a new link to the above discussed skid swap?

I believe in 2000 they changed the length of the control rods for better weight transfer, that's the only differance.
