jesse1004 Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 does anybody know what the stock shock length is on a banshee and also are raptor shocks and banshee shock the same length? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

royxc800 Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 what about the stroke? I am trying to fit some fox shocks on a banshee. I found some shocks that are 14.25" long with 4-5/8 stroke. I think the problem will be finding the right spring rate. Thanks Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racer Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 if youre talking about some 2.0's i dont think find the right spring rate would be that hard. just weigh various things, you, your bike. measure some shit, mainly leverage ration on teh shock, and the angle its leanded too. then do some math and it should give you a ball park estimate. however i dunno if the coil on a 2.0 will clear the upper a-arm, but you could probably work around that.

royxc800 Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 I am thinking more like the shocks from the front of a snowmobile.I have all the tools to rebuild and revalve them so I would just have to find a spring that is close to what comes on a banshee, as sleds are a bit heavier.I even have a set of reservoirs that I could put on and have adjustable compression. the stock front shocks kind of suck if you ask me. the stock banshee springs dont fit over the fox shock either. A nice dual rate setup would be killer to find. So does anyone know the stroke of the front shock? I think the shocks from an older polaris would be perfect, like a 93-94 wedge style. Probably fit with no modifications too. Later Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
