I dont think so but call elka, works, gt thunder. ect. they can tell you. If they can it would be better and probibley just as much to get some works dule rates off ebay. I bought a set of blaster shocks for my banshee of there for like 200.

You can probiblley use warrior shocks. I know banshee shocks would fit. Rapptors might be to long. YFZs wuold be to long. You would just have to messeur an see. You really need somthing with a resivor for mx, for xc it helps. I have some stock banshee shocks.

i no your not asking me but banshee stockers never were really good i had numerous friends with them and they all said they ride still your best bet is to go with a rebuild if u dont wnan spend the money for aftermarkets

you cant revalved blaster shocks. you can only revalve and rebuild shocks with rezzies on them or after martket shocks with no rezzies.

go to projectblaster.com forums but ohterwise banshee, warrior, and lt250r (quadracer) front shocks fit but there really not much of an improvement. I had banshee front shocks and was not impressed at all riding trails or on a track they are a lot stiffer but some what of a worse ride but good improvements on a blaster rear shock would be a 250r, 400ex, or 450r rear shock. I would try to find used works or elkas before you go and buy banshee shocks and put a 400ex rear shock on.

i really dont think they will they may help out some being the blaster weight is less then the banshee but everyone i know that has a banshee says they stock shocks ride like ***

they are stiff.good for jumping, bad for trail ridding.

I agree with bansheexcracer2. They are stiff shocks. I have ridden a couple banshees with stock shocks and they are bone jarring on the trails even compared to my stock 300ex shocks. If you can save your money for a cheap set of new/used works shocks.
