just bought a banshee, and wondering if yfz 450 front shocks fit?

Yes, I believe you have to grind the top of the shock slightly to fit in the mount.

My cousin has them on his banshee.

Oh yeah, with some modification you can get the a-arms to work too and they act like +2 +1.

Havent seen you around in a while. I was wondering if you had any current pics of the 450r plastic set up?? Want to see how it looks currently since im throwing around the idea of doing it.

Thanks man. And one last question (sorry, lol)

Were their any areas that had gaps or spaces that made it look off, or half-done? Or did everything end up fitting pretty well together where it looked like it was made that way?

Awesome. Im going to have to look into doing it.

And good luck with the shee, they're awesome quads.

If you ever need help, you should definitely sign up on hillclimbersforum.com lots of nice guys over there and everyones laid back with knowledge on banshees. Awesome site and so far no tools.

i have a set of those a arms you are talking about. they are raptor 660 and i would recommend using raptor 700se or yfz shocks with them. i used banshee shocks and it sat 2 inches lower than stock. it was fine for me i race flat track. you interested??
