I'm considering putting a fox shock on my blazer and was wondering if anyone has done this and if it made any differance ???
I rode a 400 scrambler the other day and was surprised at the differance in ride.. I know that the 400 had a fox shock on it and thats why I am thinking that it will make a differance.....

The Downside is it raises the center of gravity. It's your call, but if your the donut king Id stay with what you've got!

I have one on my 99. I would say that it does
help and it does raise the rear up about 1 1/2
inches. On jumps with the stock shock, I could
bottom it out fairly easy. With the Fox shock
its alot harder!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They make 2 differnt rear shocks there is the long travel one an the standerd one I have the standard one on my TB an works great. I jumping high an landing hard every friday night an have not had any problems.I am clearing a 40' double to table top jump. It is worth the money to buy one.

I'm no expert but if putting a fox shock on will raise my quad up a little in the back won't that be a good thing considering they seem to sit lower in the back than the front stock ??
