1) So if i buy 400ex front shocks there will be no mods required? do they need to be the older kind? Can i do the same with yfz front shocks?
2) What mods so the 250r rear shocks need? what year shock would fit the SMS +3 swinger?

i wonder if a banshee rear shock would fit. Maybe i f i give my dad some beer

the 250r rear is very easy, you only need a dremel/angle grinder or something similiar to grind the bushings down and yes it will fit with an extended swinger

another cheap shock that some one should try on thier blaster is a Raptor 700 rear shock fits a Q-Racer 250R and it is the same length as a blasters only .13 difference in height not much at all

I have the Diamond J +6" widening A-Arm/Shock kit for the front of my blaster. With retrofitting YFZ450 fronts, will this increase my ride height or go right in as the stockers do, with the wide kit?

Tossing around the idea of the 450 fronts but do NOT want any major height increase...
