I don't know if it will fit, but I do know that even if it does fit that it won't work right at all. The warrior valving etc is not designed to work with something like a LT250. The leverage ratios etc are all different, the swingarm length / pick up points are different etc. About all that warrior shock is gonna do is hold the back of the quad up....barely.

Dang, your prolly right...

Ive spent alot of money on my LT and want it to run and ride correctly. I dont race it or anything but we ride tons of trails and open fields etc and i love it, but this shock is all mest up..

I had the local dealer recharge it after my dad made a mistake and let the nitro out or whatever was on the inside...when i took it to the dealer to recharge i put it back on, and now i can make the backend bounce all around like its filled with air or soemthing....

Looks like my best bet is to find a used lt shock or take my current shock back off and take it to the dealer and have them order the parts from that site like i needed..

sigh...

No I don't have a 300ex shock on mine, I just measured both since I own both. A warrior shock may not be valved right, but it would definately hold the rear end up. The warrior is a heavy tank and the LT250 is pretty lite.

White Brother's did our 91 rear shock. It took a total of 2 weeks including shipping time from Arkansas to California each way, and it cost us $150 shipping included.

I got a quote from MXTech of $220 to rebuild my rear shock and replace the spring. However, when I sent it in they told me it would cost another $130 because the shaft needed to be rechromed.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] I was able to locate a rear shock from an 89 LT (it has adjustable rebound and compression unlike my 86 which only has adjustable compression) that was already at Elka for rebuilding. They rebuilt it, revalved it for my weight, and replaced the stock spring with a dual rate setup. I paid the same $350 it would have cost me to rebuild my old one.
