Hey Adam,
Are you talking about the fronts or the rear?
The Rears will differ from the 04-05 to the 06-07.
I am pretty sure that the fronts are the same. I think the fronts are 16.5" long if I remember correctly.

fronts on 450Rs are 17.5, or very close to it. 16.5 if 400ex length shocks.

Find some 300EX shocks! That's what I have heard of others using on 450Rs for drag purposes
