hi I am new here. I just got a blaster, I have a friend that has a polaris predator with fox shocks on it. He is lowering it and asked me if they woud fit my blaster, if so he will give me them for 100. do you guys know what the stock blaster shocks measure eyelet to eyelet, or if these shocks will fit?
Predator Fox Shocks will they fit a blaster?

I might be wrong but I believe Blaster fronts are 14.5" stock, Preditor shocks are around 17" or so. I put a pair on a z400 and their about .5" on the long side for the z.
so i guess they are way too big, it would of only been 100 for 3fox shocks.the back one was what I really wanted. sounds like I will be sticking with 400ex on the rear or yfz. Which I've heard arent the greatest. do to the height even after doing the +4 swing arm.and they said they look funny being so high
im sure they are around 15 inches something like that you can put a way better shock in the rear lots of bikes are compatible with the blaster so upgrades are no prob
i measured the fox shocks they are 19" eyelet to eyelet measuring to the top of the bolt holes.dos any one know the stock rear shock length
thats what i was thinking lol. like man, either that, buy em and be like oh sh*t they dont fit and resell them for more.
man, i belive stroker has fourplay +4+1 long travel a-arms and his elka's measure 19" so do that. unless these fox's are trash but if there what im thinking of, defently try.
ok i got measurements all 3 fox shocks are 19. I decided not to get the front they are not piggybacks. i think stockers revalved by fox .i am getting the rear I measured my rear shock it is 15" middle to middle of bolt holes. i think my friend measured the farthest part of each hole if i measure the outer part of the hole it is 15 ½. I read the yfz are 4 inches longer if so what is the best way to do the swing arm I will want to extend the axles too. I think this the best way is to use banshee axles if i read it right. .now i was told that the yfz made the blaster to high and didnt handle right? do to the 4"of extra length. or is there a reasonable swing arm that corrects the length is there a what to post a pic of it here. I am going to try to search for how to correct the 4" difference with a swing arm or anything else.
its possible to make all 3 fit but also difficult. the front ones have a whole lot of travel and unless you go like 5 or 6 inches wider it will be to much and it will be really hard to jump and all that fun stuff. but the rear will work really nice with an extended swinger. alot better than the 400ex imo. i had a blater set up with pred. shocks and it was awesome especially in the sandI:I
If he extended his swingarm 4" before the shock mount un like mine and many others on here, behind the mount
would that work for him? I'm thinking it would and look sweet to boot.
