www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07...
this was a super simple change, and if under 100 lbs I believe its an upgrade that is worth it! Thanks for watching!!

[@ryand5041]

I smashed my fangers! Lmao 🤣 jkjk Nothing wrong with having a spare, especially in this day and age. Great videos wish you had more!

[@biointheknow]

easier if you do the lower bolt first, then you can raise atv frame with one hand and slip the top one in easily with the other hand

[@14mirage]

Great video...just took the 11 year old out today and your video was what I needed to see. I bought them. Edit... subbed!

[@Carolinakeith_1]

Thanks!!! Glad I could help, have fun out on the trails!!!

[@joelsoto5065]

Nice video thanks

[@bryan10444]

Get the 340mm shock of that same brand.. rated for a higher weight plus more travel. Installed one on my BMS 150 sport and it floats over bumps

[@fjg2372]

Happy Belated Birthday. God Bless.

[@lundexplorer1]

I can't find any information like this and I love that the video is a few years old I hope I get a response so it was 320 mill in the front and 280 in the back after 3 years how did that hold up

[@Carolinakeith_1]

still works great, would do it on every chinese atv.

[@takuacuhracing851]

could you still use the 320mm for the back i messed up and bought two pairs of the same size

[@treballellis2871]

Can u send me link to where got that rear shock

[@kerm9807]

I have a tao tao 125cc atv its it's new and has play in the steering shaft and the vibration is high,I know a guy fitted a grease nippel and helped, any ideas

[@kerm9807]

Is there a different exhaust system for these atvs or will a big bore pitbike one fit? Good video's mate

[@Carolinakeith_1]

I haven't tried one, but I'll say that I haven't experimented either...this is something I should look in to. The exhaust is fairly free flow, I've already hollowed out the muffler on this one lol

[@kerm9807]

@@Carolinakeith_1 I have done the same I have swapped out cheap bolts for stainless steel NGK spark plug Mikuni m22 Carburetor Same shocks as yours but running 2 on the Rear. Bigger k&N air filter Wield up steering shaft and turn down on the lathe to stop steering shaft play and fitted 6mm grease nippel.

[@Carolinakeith_1]

If you dont have the wheel spacers, I HIGHLY suggest them .HUGE improvement

[@Carolinakeith_1]

[@evanseymour4172]

Seriously excellent video series. Lots of great ideas! How do you like the wheel spacers? How have they effected turn radius?

[@Carolinakeith_1]

Thanks! Actually the wheel spacers seem to have increased the turning angle 🤷‍♂️ ...they are only on the back. That's probably the first thing I'd even buy, massive increase of stability when installed. Kinda crucial for any kid

[@evanseymour4172]

Keith Oh wow! I’m surprised. Thanks, this teaches me something. I will for sure use your spacer idea on my kids atv’s! 🤠

[@Carolinakeith_1]

Like I say in one of the videos , they should come installed from purchase

[@tjjankowski4480]

I havent watched all your videos yet but I plan to, wondering did you find a fix for the vibration issues with these chinese atv's? I have 2 125cc and 1 150cc coolsters. Thanks TJ

[@Carolinakeith_1]

Yes, we just put a simple bunjee cor around the battery, not the best fix but it works much better to stop vibration of the battery. I may need to think of a more permanent fix

[@suyung4714]

Where to search for these atvs ?

[@Carolinakeith_1]

Local people all around us sell them, but you can buy them on amazon, or ebay

[@oneplus8121]

How can I make a tao tao quantum tour 150cc a little faster and I also want to drop it and stretch it. Is it possible?

[@anthonylambes7789]

Hey bud my 5 year old son has the same ATV it's not a terrible ATV for the price at top end full speed she moves she starts up everytime and idles no problem I love the suspension upgrade and spacers on the rear you installed and we are gonna steal your idea and do the same I can tell it makes a world of difference just seeing it ride in your video the only issue or complaint i have is the low end at a dead stop she would get stuck on a pebble did you have the same issue if so did the carb and sprockets upgrade fix the issue.

[@Carolinakeith_1]

Sprockets made a world of difference low end...3 or 4 times the snap with the throttle when we got them changed. Changing the chain is also highly recommended as the chinese one is flimsy at best.. you can buy both sprockets and the chain for $75 total. It will take some top speed away, but it really isnt about top speed at this point in his riding abilities lol. Glad you like the videos!!

[@Alisonhouser5]

Shocks and spacers for coolster utility quad 150 is what I need!! in a bad way! In the process now cleaning my carburator with no screws to open carb but I used my nail file to make some slitz so I turned the flat part into a a flat head screw!! Duhh!! Chinese trying to make things hard on me!! But it worked!! I got it opened! Now I gotta figure out how to put it back on ATV! I took pictures but kinda confused! Keep working at it! Lord mercy!! Loli just wanna trail ride with my dog! And if anybody knows where I can get some kinda dog kennel for quads! And maybe plow, winter coming!

[@kabirwalia9280]

Hey what atv company is that?

[@trey6909]

Hey I have a 150cc version of the green one you have do you think the same shock setup would work? I don’t know what size to get since all the videos I see are 125s.

[@Carolinakeith_1]

Measure the shock from bolt hole to bolt hole...convert that using a calculator, from inches to MM, then search for the amount in MM on ebay or Amazon. They in "320mm shocks" or whatever the number of MM you have is...you should see tons of options.

[@trey6909]

Alright thanks man

[@g.m_styling3571]

I checked and the trackrods were loose!! Amongst atal other things so thanks again. I really want to change the front drums to disc. Their so bad!! Any ideas?

[@Carolinakeith_1]

You'll need the master cylinder and handle/lever, lines, spindles, and all brake hardware + accessories...there are some go carts that have the parts you need, maybe you can find a parts one to scavenge off of...otherwise it's a pricey upgrade...

[@g.m_styling3571]

@@Carolinakeith_1 yh somebody else said it might get abit prices. The market over here is not that big yet. I will keep a look out tho. Cheers

[@liza200471473]

Question what kind of carburetor do you recommend on a Chinese atv upgrade??

[@Carolinakeith_1]

Mukini carburetor from Amazon or eBay $20-$30 ...also the throttle cable that comes extra is worth the $.

[@dashholley]

Are this the same size shocks you used for the front?

[@Carolinakeith_1]

No, the rear shocks are 280 mm. The front shocks are 320 mm

[@aa-bv6nm]

Should I buy these on all your videos I have a xpro 200cc and top speed is 36mph ?

[@Carolinakeith_1]

Its worth the $ for the carb, shocks up front, wheel spacers, and the different sprockets. The chain is your choice.

[@aa-bv6nm]

@@Carolinakeith_1 will those make it faster like the carb?

[@Carolinakeith_1]

The sprockets will change your acceleration down some, but make top speed higher. Doing smaller sprockets will make the acceleration better but cost you top speed. The other parts make it ride better, as that's the main problem with them.

[@panaplexi5708]

Do you use a bike pump to fill the shocks with air?

[@Carolinakeith_1]

I used a small air compressor

[@jimmymuirhead1716]

Have you had any problems with the spacer I just installed them and noticed you can’t

[@jimmymuirhead1716]

Put the nut on the bolt it just sits flush in the spacer I was worried it could back out

[@Carolinakeith_1]

No, I didn't have that problem. The kit came with extra spacers that I could use, but the ones in the marks already installed were the correct size and. All a TV's are a little different, spacers are easily found at the hardware store, or just different bolts.

[@moparsrt885]

You filled it with air?

[@Carolinakeith_1]

Yes, its an air shock

[@kalebsmith4379]

Hey with a 390mm rear shock work for an atv with the the bolt hole dimension being 391.16

[@kalebsmith4379]

I just realized what I asked was the wrong thing nvm

[@justinmyers6552]

Need new videos on the atv ??

[@thra5herxb12s]

Hardly an upgrade, the worlds cheapest rear shocks, and I should know I use them myself 😂

[@Carolinakeith_1]

100% better than what comes on it which = an upgrade. No, they aren't $500 fox shocks, but Jesus christ...🤦‍♂️
