Thanks alot bro Andrew 422577[/snapback] You could have Elka rebuild your rear stock hock?.....the front stock hocks belong in the trash can, replace those, and yes a rebuilt stock rear hock is better than a stock rear hock from a 225 ZFY.........

KoStOnE Posted October 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 Alrite thanks alot. So elka could rebuild my rear shock and around how much would that cost and what would they do just replace the old parts with new parts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racer Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 ya. but instead of having what the factory considers good for all around it will be sprung and valved for your weight and riding style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justintoxicated Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 They change the internals, Spring and Valving. The stock shock is decent when setup right. I'd either get the Elka Aftermarket or have TCS revalve the rear. I hear TCS has much better valving than elka. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoStOnE Posted October 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Alrite and how long would rebuilding your rear shock last forever? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justintoxicated Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 (edited) as long as any other shock probably, although the elka may last longer (???) but it's also 3x as much money...Rear shock housing is similar to aftermarket rear shocks on other quads...the internals are what suffer... It makes a pretty huge difference having your rear re-done...I was suprised.. if you planning to get an extended swinger do it at the same time so you only need to valve it once. I feel it will likely last longer than stock, since they are using better internals. Edited October 5, 2005 by Justintoxicated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
