oooooo ok so you want the ones that look like banshee shocks not the ones that look like blaster ones i get it
Okay so i hear alot about the yfz shocks for the front and i see that everyone says you need +3 +1 a-arms. I have burgards on mine which are +2 +1, i believe. so i was curious what clearance issues i'd have? and if maybe there would be a better option for me?
the reason people dont use the yfz shocks is because there too long. your a arms are meant for standard length shocks, so the yfz's will be to long. however you a arms droop alot more because there is no stopper so they would probly work without any problems. but you can find some used works for the same price as yfz shocks so...
and welcome to the forum.

If I'm getting a +4" swingarm, what shock would I use if I didn't want to raise the back end up that much?

has anyone tried to use the link assembly from an ltz400 shock and shock on a blaster with sucess??? im planning on running ltz400 shocks with rezzies all the way around and welding a mounting bracket for the link in the frame. i want tp put an adjustable link on it so i can set ride heights. it is all set up for mx and tt but has a stock rear shock that uses a lowering kit. the front works shocks are beat and need rebuilt so instead of putting a bunch of money in them i was going to purches some ltz 400 shocks form ebay for all the way around it!!!
