YES, the largest they make. However, if you decide to do this, let me give you some advice.

First, dont over "shock" them. Go with a lighter setup and just adjust them to a striffer setting.

Second, dont set the initial setting to 24 degrees. Start with 15. 24 is wayyyy to steep and take a lot of pressure to flatten them out. otherwise, they drag too much and will slow you down.

    back on the water today and WOW....what a difference a fresh drive is. I cant imagine what kind of vibration I had, cause now its all gone. I fell in love all over again.

    Dont have the bill yet, but Im sure it will be around $2200 when all said and done.
