has anyone put the front shocks from the yfz450 on their raptor if so was it a direct fit?

yes, they will fit with a little massaging. A shot with the grinder and they will bolt right up. Length is about 1/2 inch longer though.

They are just a hair too thick, and need minor thinning to fit the stock mounts on a Raptor. But many people have done it without any problems. BIGSCARY has pic's on his gallery of his Raptor with YFZ shocks.
