I am looking to replace the rear shocks on my FL350 Odyssey.

Shock length must be no longer than 15 inches eye to eye and must be able to support a 600 pound vehicle.

Works makes a set for the Odyssey but I am too cheap to buy a set for 500 bucks. Other than the Suzuki LT F500F I don't know of another vehicle that uses a 15 inch shock.

Any suggestions?

The only problem is the LT250R only weighs 293 pounds. I need something that will support the weight of a 600 pound Odyssey.

Thanks for the reply though!:)

With that kind of weight I doubt any sport quad shock is going to be the answer, without doing a respring or revalve. You're probably going to have to go with a utility shock. Only problem with going that route is the lack of adjustments. A search on grizzly front shocks show them as 14". I couldn't find the length on any of the other big utilities I searched.
