Larger shock on lt250r
« on: February 05, 2014, 06:34:42 pm »
Alright I have a set of trx450r shock. They are 16.25 eye to eye. What is the best way to convert the mount to accept the bigger shock. I was thinking to cut shock plate in a angle and bend it up enough to accept the larger shock. Then weld new plate in for strength.  Another question probably want to keep the shocks in their current angle. Or Iis their a better angle that works better. Im looking for a way to get better shock.. Or atleast a better section. Since alot shocks are 16 .25. Any info would be great.

Are these the shocks you found? In order to run these shocks since they are longer, the lower shock mount needed to be adjusted outward on the a arm. Shown are metal tech a arms for a Zilla. Iirc I measured 16.5" eye to eye on those shocks.
