I have a set of yfz shocks on my 300 with the relocator bracket and everthing worked great for the first time out . 1 month later I go out to the shed to clean it out pull the quad out and when I sat on it the whole front end just sat on the ground. You cant even turn the front end just flops all over the place I can push it down to thr ground with one hand and it doesnt come up maybe an inch. These shocks were brand new .

Can I try and put some air in them to see what happens or will it damage it

Air? what good would air do in a nitrogen shock? Sounds like they need a rebuild perhaps?

this is what happens when you use shocks from a different quad on another quad.

Found the problem took them to my dealer had them check them out they filled them and said they were fine. I told him my setup and he said the a arm and shock bracket are not the same geometry and when the shock is compressed it bends and thats where all the nitrogen went. Is this b/s ?
