A reviewer on another site noted that if the bottom was not open then the suspension would bottom out. True? Do I need the optional slider rails?

The part has a range that it will work within. If the tension is not set high enough in the spring, then it will bottom out by design (safely bottom out, no worry of damaging anything). I did not buy any optional rails and everything has worked out well. The only issue I had was that there was not as much adjustment range for mounting between the mower and seat as I would have liked, but it had enough for me to be happy with the final result.

I think you would be better served to buy a riser that already has safety rails on it. My problem, which this solves, is that I had a difficult time getting off the toilet because I have bad knees. This is perfect for this problem. Why not call the mfg?

Tom, the shocks are shorter than your stock shocks. They fit, but the ride will not have the travel of the original shock. So if a much stiffer and easy to bottom out ride is ok, then this is a solution to lower your ride.

Make sure you have all 3 (or more) legs attached to bottom. Mine only came with 2; had to throw it away.

You will have to either modify your stock tracks or buy a aftermarket seat track. The sparco sliders wont bolt to the stock mounting holes.

Yes that is the lower trailing arms. Would caution that these have urethane bushings and should be replaced with the upper arms for the safest handling and ride.

You attach the wheels, so they can be removed / not attached. I would recommend it, the legs did not have a nice finish on the bottom. The wheels can be locked in place too, there is a turn-key on each wheel so you can lock the individually. Don't really need to, it is very heavy and does not roll by itswlf

The vertical lift joystick of the controller stays where you leave it, not spring loaded to return to bottom. It does come with a controller, however, you can also buy them separately elsewhere and use the same controller for two if one is resting.

howdy you would mount the springs just below the frame rail so when the vehicle squats from a load the springs will pick it up..

You have to adjust the shocks for the given load. You can tighten them up so they won't bottom out with a "normal" passenger, but you will need to loosen them back up when she gets off, or your looking at a very rough ride.

I have them on mine, I used them along with a rough country BB lift. It raised the rear end up so it did not look as saggy with the BB. It does ride a bit more firm but if I had to, I would do it again.

i would think the downrod is optional...it is a short downrod and suspect you would want to use it for appearance if not anything else

You would need floor brackets designed for side mounts so that the sliders sit wider than the seat. Sparco makes them such as the 600 series seat base, there is the LOW model, which I bought for my 89 240sx and those would be able to work with sliders. Some floor brackets are made for bottom mount and if you bolted the sliders up, they would sit directly under the seat making side mounts impossible

I have two ARs: flattop with Magpul MBUS front and rear, the other with the A2 front and MBUS rear. No riser of any kind was needed for either.

Yes, you need a riser to keep the front wheel from moving around. I had tried without a riser my first time and it did not end well

I Had a similar problem. The chain guard wouldn't let me mount the motor low enough to attach It to the bottom rail. I bought a new bracket from kingsmotorbike.com . They have just about any part you would ever need. You could possibly get a longer bolt from home depot . You may have to get creative . Goodluck
