Basically yea. Your very picky aren't you? You want cheap but you say it doesn't look sturdy. Your gonna ether have to go cheap or go elkas or works.

not cheap, i dont mind spending money on stuff that is worth it but i dont want to have my freakin shocks snap off in mid ride  :lol:

it would be just as much to get that 80 dollar piece and yfz shocks as it would to buy elkas and get them set up for me specifically

Hey, I finaly got some pic of my yfz on the warrior, well it don't fit bolt-on, they are too long, there's too much distance for them to fit.... Here's the pictures





sorry it don't fit bolt-on, unless you do a little bracket.

What i would do if I were to really do this swap, i would make a bracket that bolt to both OEM upper shock mount then extend it to fit the higher upper mount of the shock, that would do the trick, but it takes time...

ok i just measured my length of my shocks from eye to eye its almost 14.5" and yfz shocks are 15.5"....

so... does anybody know the length of something like 400z or 400ex shocks?

im open for ideas here lol

Peelz

get the lowering bracket vreds. Or maybe the dimondj +2 extension, but just for the a-arms, leave the shocks at stock. SHould stretch it out enough to give you some room. Or, give me the shocks. :lol:

I don't want these on my warrior, it was just to show what a yfz front shock look like on a warrior and why they don't fit ;) they're on my 700 now.
