I have a warrior and busted two front shocks already. I wanted to know if anyone else had this problem. And i want to replace them with works or some other kind of shocks.

Wow, you must be getting some big air. The only thing i ever broke a shock on was a wolverine. But then again I was also jumping it 8ft in the air and landing on flat ground, anyway I would recomend some works at steelers dual rate set up for motocross. I have a brand new banshee and it is in the shop right now because I got a little too high myself/

If your going to buy shock ,may I sudjest purchasing then from graydon proline the have exilent servess and will custome valve the shocks free of charge ,And I found that there 20-50$ cheaper then every one else when it comes to shocks. sorry about my spelling

I've also broken a front shock on my Warrior. I broke the right-front. Depending on where it broke, you could get it welded. Thats what i did, but i might buy worx shox anywayz. Where did it break??

If anyone is in need, I have a pair of front stock shocks for sale off a '93 warrior. Let me know

Does anyone know of a place to get the rear stock shock revalved? $600 is a bit steep for a new ultra-cross rear shock. Ouch!

Yep!! I broke me shock down there on the bottom weld. I took it to the dealer for them to look at it and they welded it right there for under $30. Not bad considering a new one cost like $120. So, its just as strong, if not stronger than b4.

Try calling Total control suspension, there # is 562-945-4473. But beware I've talked with them and Works and everyone is behind on building shocks. I just recieved my Ultracross shock for my warrior yesterday, I ordered it the 3rd week of February. Good luck.
