What do I need to do to convert my Fox float shocks to fit my 05 450R? The shocks are coming from my Kawi 450R.

call fox. from what i was told by them before is that they really cant re-do shocks to fit different applications. they said it would be just as expensive as buying new

Talk to a suspension builder (M@ul Tech ATV, or GT Thunder) about converting them. They might be able to work with you more.

The biggest thing to know will be the shock length. If the shocks are different length then what you need for the Honda then it would be better to just sell them and get different I believe. Only way to change shock length is new bodies, etc on these so the parts get expensive.
