Default Blaster rear shock- will 400ex fit?

I noticed that some people here have a 400ex rear shock on their Blaster. (with the piggyback res.)
What do you need to do to make that fit?
Any help and pics are appreciated.
Also, how do you make Banshee front shocks fit, since they are longer?
Thanks

I've heard of people putting 250R shocks on their blaster and 400ex might work, I'm not sure...does the 400ex have rear linkage? As to front shocks people put banshee/raptor shocks on it without a problem. It puts some extra stress on something or other though

One problem the longer shocks cause is the front end of the blaster will sit 2 or 3 inches higher than normal. This causes another problem of the ball joints wearing out rapidly and breaking from the increased stress on them.
