One of my front shocks on my banshee had the shaft bend and now it sticks. I have a friend who is thinking about getting aftermarket shocks for his raptor and told me if his old ones would work on mine i could have them. Will this work???, or are they too long and make it high in the front. If the won't work, would you suggest buying used banshee shocks on possibly ebay, or an aftermarket pair?? I can't afford to buy new stock shocks or really expensive aftermarkets.
Thanks!

Buy some aftermarket shocks off Ebay. The stockers are horrible.

I think I have seen a post saying that Banshee shocks on a Raptor will lower the Raptor. So......

nope they won't fit. the shee shocks are shorter. i gave my stockers to my buddy to try on his shee and they are longer. they wouldn't even go on without compressing the raptor shock. yes the banshee shock will lower the raptor and vis versa. raptor shock will raise the shee.
