I know front blaster will fit and banshee are longer so you need adjustable a-arms or the camber will be off. Raptor rear shocks work but I'm not sure about front

only the 01 rear raptor shock with remote rez will fit as I have heard since the piggy back will hit.

I actually tried the front shocks from a raptor on a warrior, they were a very tight fit the ride was VERY plush but pushed in the turns and bottomed very easily. I just did it for ***** and giggles, rode it twice like that.

Banshee shocks MIGHT be slightly better than the raptor fronts but not much, and not good for real riding.

Blaster shocks are a little softer but your best bet is get some works or go all out like I did and pick up some elkas[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img] but you run into a lot of $$ then so your best bet is works unless moneys not a issue

I put works shocks on my Warrior and sold my old ones on ebay for $80ish. You should be able to find OEM shocks in good shape for under that. Mine were like new.
