We have a kasea with elka shocks. Im trying to figure out if you can adjust the height of the rear of the bike with the shock. we are new to this and to the bike. Any info would be appreciated

I measured eye to eye it looks to be about 12.5 to 13 inches. Are there any longer elkas ? Or can I change the height by adding stiffer springs?

you can move the shock mount on the swingarm in closer but the futher in you move it the worse the rear shock futher away for that certain degree.. and more as a up and down angle for that shock to do its best job. There is shock mounts relocator's brakets on ebay. just tach it on your frame but at the same time its the same has moving the bracket on the swingarm in closer. Adjustment on the spring is what it is. The tighter you go down, yes the shock wont give keeping it higher but is pretty much a worthless exspensive shock. You did check the measurement when the quad was off the floor right.
