Just wondering how much difference in terms of boon docking and downhill turns there is with the narrow a-arm kit. Curently running a 2007 M8 with bushings on outside of ski. Ski stance is 39" center to center, is 1.25 per side enough to make a big difference?

I have some alt impact ones on mine.

Of all the money I've thrown at random crap for that thing, that mod alone is probably the best for moving around in trees on slopes.

Do eeeet.

I also am running the Alternative Impact front suspension on my sled. That in addition to the Raptor shocks I installed last year were the best upgrades I have done to the sled. A little more tippy on the trails but that isn't what I purchased those for.
I wouldn't hesitate to go narrower.

What all did you have to change? I assume the tie rods need to be shortened. and the shocks would need to be shorter?

Look for a thread started by alt impact announcing he was going to make these. That thread served as the 'figuring it out' process for rod length, shock shortening etc
