So I recently bought a new pipe that won't fit around my custom shock and I hav not decided yet whether I am going to replace the shock or the pipe but if someone is interested in the shock It might make the decision easier
So this is what I have, A custom built YFZ450 rear shock, I originally bought it off 1Bad442 an old member here when he parted out his blaster. It was built by HLS suspension at GTThunder and has an eibach dual spring kit that allows it to sag to the stock blaster height at it's lowest adjustabilty setting ... so stock height but can be raised from there. The bottom cas been re-shaped and re-drilled to be a direct fit into a stock blaster or AM blaster swing. The top comes with custom bushings and turned-down bolt for direct fit into frame. It is set-up for 160-170lb trail riding. The shock has been polished and 442 painted the spring kit which could use a touch up though it is not bad. This shock was serviced after I bought it and has about seven rides on it since servicing.
This link will bring you to full pictures of everything ...

I am going to take a big loss either way, but cannot let this shock go for less than 250. Compared to 600-800 for a rear works/elka I do not think this is a bad price at all especially for the amount of work that went into converting this shock correctly for a blaster and the fact that it is definetly not a stock YFZ450 rear shock.
If this thread dies i'll assume no one is interested at that price and I'll just keep it rather than take a loss and explore other avenues ...
If interested PM me ... ill bump this a few times and see what happens
