its around 16 inches? and the resevoir is built onto the shock. if i turned it upside down would it work?

[m0t0xk1d]

if its 16 inches them im pretty sure thats to big whrere the stock one is 14 inches? if you did you would have massive ride height problems the back would be WAY to high. i would suggest a cheap shock off ebay. you can prboably do it but you quad would be way high in the back

[m0t0xk1d]

[m0t0xk1d]

its a custom axis shock you wont get a rear shock thats any better then that.
