fastrthnu Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 What is the difference or advantage of having an Elka rear linkage? Elka said they can only be used with their shock. ???? I think theirs beside looking better, its for adjustable ride height. Other than that I dunno. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Washburn Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 I have the Elka elite shock and dual linkage and it rocks. It gives you more travel plus if setup correctly youll never bottom out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POORBOY350 Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 i was wondering this also.but... adjustable ride height sounds good to me! and you prob wont know the advantages til you ride on it. it may make a world of diff and yea i dont see why it would only be able to be used with the elka shock i'd think they the same damn size i have elka rear shock. what do these things go for!? price.

And how do you adjust it? does it have predrilled holes like a lowering link? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 I received your message but wasn't able to respond to it for some reason. I don't have a donor shock if i understand whayt your asking. The rebuild cost depends on the type of riding you do. Rebuilds start at $400. Your guy locally probably won't be successful in rebuilding a Banshee shock. They aren't the same as others and there is a special technic used to take them apart. The front shocks on a Banshee aren't rebuildable. Shane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that guy does awesome work but since he said he hasn't touched a banshee shock before it doesn't give me much trust. that is too bad about the fronts not being rebuildable.
