they look good to me

I hear they cost a arm and a leg to rebuild. They don't make rebuild kits for them anymore. Other then that don't know if its a decent shock or not

For that price id go for it but that's just me they look nice

Looks like the hoses to the reservoirs could be replaced, I see a couple frays or cracks or something.

Will 87 shocks fit my 98?

Yes but they are 3/4" shorter than your stock shocks. They make seals and stuff for them. Any good place that rebuilds shocks should be able to find all the seals for it buy measuring them...

Not sure I wanna jump into these, don't want pay far out the ass to rebuild them. Plus shorter front shocks with my 660 rear lol. Come on guys talk me into buying these lol

 

[87warrior917]

You can get them extended or shortened when they get rebuilt. Figure about 250- 300 for a rebuild on both, even more if you need springs

On a side notee it cost 117.43 for me to have me at steelers reworked by works seals and all

I'm gonna pass on these. Going to get some works shocks when I order some +2 a arms

 

[beastlywarrior228]

eh even im not 100% pleased with my works. they handle a hell of a lot better than the yfz'z did but they bottom out too easy, i cant plow whoops like i want

 

[duneracerweston]

^^ditto ditto go witht the fox floats 10x better then the works

 

[Hdale85]

And a lot more money too...... I just don't think I can bring my self to spend like 1500 on 2 shocks for just the front! And then the rear is that same price and it's only 1 shock.......sickening lol.

 

[duneracerweston]

were are you pricing these things at? you get them off ebay for around $660 or so new

 

[Hdale85]

The air shocks? Must of been the higher end ones I was thinking of lol. That's still a lot though considering the ATV was 800. But I guess none of them are likely to come with shocks of that quality anyways.


Why is it that the rear shock is generally just as expensive as the front? Seems like it'd be cheaper to make since it's a single unit. But maybe there is more involved?
