Lets all be factual in this. Lets compare rear suspension weights so we can really see what they weigh. I was very surprised at the weight difference between my IQR skid and my ez-ryde


151" ez-ryde skid compleate-46 pounds, 4 wheels and fox coil over shocks with resivors.
121" polaris race skid-66 pounds.



I will see what the dragon skid is at tomorrow when i pull it out.

My 05 M7Limited 162 suspension weighed 50lbs on the dot(no scratchers)

My 162 EZ ryde with a two wheel kit is 46lbs with scratchers.

Both were weighed on a toledo platform scale.

My buddy's D8 162 timbersled with carbon fiber rails and carbon fiber two wheel kit is 40lbs(on his scale, I didn't see it weighed)
