Ok, I've heard that YFZ450 front shocks will fit on a Banshee. Is this true? Stock a-arms or +2+1? Who has actually tried this - and what luck have you had?

I read your tutoria, but I'm unclear about what has to be ground down to fit - is it the a-arm or the lower shock bolt? lAlso, how much of an improvement over stock shocks are they? Any problems with this conversion so far? Thanks!

The lower part of the shock where it bolts to the lower aarm has to much metal on it and has to be ground down for the bolt to go thru the aarm.

The banshee stockers are very thin at the bottom but the yfz's have 3-4mm of acess metal down there.

I havent had anyproblems with mine, I love em so far.
