Blaster suspension upgrades

The shock bodies are going to be to long for stock Blaster arms. Not sure what you might need to do to the eyelets to make them fit either. They would likely be a waste of $$ as you are going to end up raising the ride height in the front with them. Hub spacers are a decent alternative to wider arms/axle for the time being as long as you aren't jumping it or constantly banging into trees and stuff. They do tend to cause premature bearing wear and add to the bump steer.
Just my opinion, but suspension and width upgrades are usually worth every penny, and will make you faster pretty much everywhere but the drag strip.

Wouldn't a Warrior rear shock be a bolt in? the 400ex shock has a lower shackle mount you would have to fab a mount for, the Blaster has eyeholes top and bottom, just like the Warrior, and the Warrior comes with a remote rez too. I have seen several kits on eBay that use new mounting brackets to use the stock a arms, but moves them out 1.5" on both sides, you just need longer tie rods, and it has new bolt on mounts for longer shocks. Best bet for the back if you want wider is a better axle, spacers make it easier to bend the axle, the stocker cant take the extra load on the outside edge if you jump a lot, it will bend right next to the axle hub. Find a good used aftermarket axle on eBay and it will be wider and stronger than stock, makes your quad corner a lot better.
