06+ swinger on an 05

[#22blaster240]

is the 06+ swinger any longer then the 05?? if so do they bolt right up?
thanks Stephen

It is 3/4 of an inch longer, and yes it will bolt right up, BUT you need a shock and linkage for an 06+ for it to work correctly.

shock,linkage and pushrod too !(the y shaped piece) also 2 more links in the chain. ask me how i know ?

[#22blaster240]

oh ok so how much do you think it wood cost totalt?? about 200?

[86250rrider]

shock $60-75

linkage pieces $25

swinger $75


i went with a gtthunder revalve on the 06 shock with his x/c link that was like $275 more i also opted for the high flow valve assembly

its like night and day from the 04-05 setup very much worth it

i didnt use it with the stock 06 components though

super plush and no kick anymore to speak of

oh okayy so sinc eim racin TT could i still run the 05 shock? ive been looking into the lonestar or gt thunder linakge

[86250rrider]

if you running tt ...i wouldnt think the longer swinger would be of any advantage. i thought they shortened swingers for better hookup.

[#22blaster240]

yeah they usually use shorter but im gonna put the 06 cuz i want it to handle a little better and for the dunes. whats the difference between the 2 shcoks?

[86250rrider]

i didnt compare but they are different. i would imagine the 06-07 is a little longer.
