I was thinking about upgrading my fork from a jr-t to a new 2005 Boxxer, maybe WC or Team. And i was curious if a 8" fork would rake out my bike?

no it wont… your jrt is already 7 inches right? also a boxxer would be a good choice.

i had a 888 on my BIGHIT and it def. racked it out to much…

but a 8" boXXer is not as tall stack height wise…

the new 05 boXXer would be a awesome upgrade…

I run a shiver on an older big hit (03 big hit comp, same as the 02 dh.) When run in the lower bb setting its a lil raked, but fine in the upper setting. The boxxer should be fine.
