Default 250r and banshee shocks on a blaster

i know i have asked this once before, but i want someone elses response, maybe you can help me. i really want to improve the suspension on my 94 blaster so i can jump at least 8 feet in the air at the dunes( would stock be sufficient enough?, i want to put a 250r rear (this one http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=43972) and banshee fronts(these: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=43974)

would i be able to mount these with only some minor grinding? or would i have to revalve them and what not.

wouldnt the ride be alot higher too? i hear you can adjust so the rear sits almost stock height, is that true?

also, would wheel spacers help the tippyness go away? thanks for your help.

i tryed to put 2002 banshee shocks on my warrior, but the springs were not strong enough, so all it did was bottom out, but a blaster is alot litter then a warrior so they will probably work really great, also for the front wheels just flip your rim around, but you will have to flip the original valve around so it is on the inside, and drill a new hole for the new valve on the other side of the rim, and for the back just check to see if you can take your rims and flip them, but for those you don't need to redrill the rims !!

i have the stock white rims 2 but i painted mine black, just take off your front wheels, then flip them and put them on backwards , so they are off set, the original valve stem on the rim will hit the brake caliper, so take the tire off the rim, then take the original valve stem out of the rim, then put it back in the opposite way, so it points toward the inside of the tire , then drill a hole on the off set side of the rim, but make sure it is the right size to put the valve in, then put the valve in, and put the tire back on, and for the back, just flip those rims around so the valve is near the axle .
