Hello all. I am mounting a timbersled kit to a 2008 KTM 300 XC-w. I am making my own fit kit. Have access to machine shop. My question is does anyone know the length of the strut rod? Is it just the length of the shock? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

If you want to save yourself some time and guess work, I got 2 guys who upgraded to TSS kits and will sell their old fit kits for $125. thats hard to argue with for what your going to be into that with material and time.

I have a ktm 300 kit fit for sale for a 15 that would probably work. Also have jush the swing arm bushings off of a 2009 ktm 450sx that you could start with. Let me know if your interested

Will those fit kits work for a 2013 300 XC?

I'm guessing you're talking $125 for just the strut correct? If it's for the entire fit kit, ski spindle hardware included let me know. Thanks.

I've got a couple ideas along these lines in mind. It would be nice to have an adjustable one to be able to fine tune. If nothing else, just for curiosity to see how changes affect handling.
