Much appreciated to all the input with the suspension. Just trying to come up with a plan before the $$ starts flying. I’m currently looking at the rough country vertex shocks as well for the p1k6 but not wild about having wheel spacers. If I stick with the M1 rough country I’m good without. The overall plan is to change the suspension, keep the factory wheels and go with bigger tire. Looks like 28s will fit no problem but I’d really like to try a 29. Especially in the terrabite. (It seems they run small). Thoughts?
Some manufacturers apparently don’t care a bit about the difference between the size printed on the sidewall and the actual size, in both height and width.
A 29” tire that measures 28” should be marked 28”. Not 29.
What’s next 35” yard sticks?

Upgrade your shocks. If you intend on operating your machine at speed occasionally, you won't enjoy not having a rear sway bar. Removing will promote body roll. This can be manageable, but it will ultimately reduce ground speed and make the experience like driving on black ice through the corners or unexpected off camber offsets. Removing the sway bar allows more rear suspension articulation which will give you more traction in slower obstacles. You never see a short course or dessert machine without a rear sway bar, never. If you're looking to enhance your driving experience, look at the Fox set-up and having them set-up for your intended driving needs. This set-up appears to be the best bang for the buck, and many on the Forum are running this set-up. You're going to drop a little coin, but this option will be $$ well spent, and you'll never look back having done so. I went the step beyond and have no regrets having done so. I was at the farm yesterday giving my Girl Friend's Children and Grandkids rides around the farm in my P1K5. Lot's of smiles and big eyes
Would you by chance know how long the shocks are on a P-1000 ( 2020 model) eye to eye! Thanks 😊
