Title: Suspension question for a Raptor 660 Post by: lovles2274 on August 15, 2006, 03:00:15 PM Hi everyone....I know that a YFZ450 front shocks will fit on my Raptor but I've heard that the rear shock won't fit. I want to know what would be a good upgrade for the rear shock without spending the cash for a new aftermarket piece. Is there shock from another quad that I could get to upgrade. Or, have I heard wrong and the YFZ450 rear will fit???
Also, I've heard that the new LTR450's front shocks are set up stiff from the factory. I have +2 a-arms so if the stock shocks from the Suzuki would fit I think they might be a good setup for me (240 pound rider)... Give me some input...I think my rear shock is defective (worn out, seals blown, something). Its a 2004 and I can't tell any change when adjusting the compression. The rebound adjustment still works... John Title: Re: Suspension question for a Raptor 660 Post by: klutchbuster400 on August 15, 2006, 03:12:34 PM Get a re-valve for the rear,
What kind of suspension do you have in the front? Cant be stock if you have plus 2 a-arms. Unless you are running standard travel, then you couldnt use lt-r shocks becuase I think ( dont qoute me) the lt-r has long travel shocks.

Your looking at 700 bucks, but people swear up and down that Laz does a great job and makes it just as good as any other shock company out there.
