They will fit with just a little grinding on the shock mounts, nothing major.

Yup, you will have to grind the shock mounts down a bit for clearance. Not a big deal, and the ride is worlds better if you are fast or jump.

I'm thinking of doing the same thing for flat track racing, I was out last Saterday and the stock shocks are Not going to work. Do the yfz shocks compare at all with elka's? or will I want to up grade?
