They will not. The top eye on the YFZ is way to thick to fit in the 400ex frame. I know guys who have made new shock bracket and welded them onto the frame. Or take the top eye of the shock to a machinist and take your stocker. Have him machine the YFZ to the thickness of the YFZ.

SEARCH- THIS HAS BEEN DISCUSSED OVER 100 TIMES!

Why do you guys always ask this>?......WE wanna try putting $200 shocks on instead of $1000 shocks.:huh

These little 400ex are NOT friggin race quads.The damn front shocks are harsh.Spend a couple bucks and get what ya want.Seems simple to me..:ermm:

Besides....it's "grinding/machining/fabbing...apparently all ya gotta do is shave some off the top.
