Change the rear shock

[01blaster_freak]

Well you wouldn't be doing anything to your blaster, you make a bushing to fit the top shock mount holes where your able to use a smaller thickness bolt then you add some washers to take up the space. a front blaster shock will bolt on the rear of a warrior, you just grind a lil off the bushing on each side of the front blaster shock an mount it on the warrior. Because i had to replace the shock on the warrior with something, Lol

im talking about a rear blaster shock on a warrior

 

[01blaster_freak]

I know but if you had an extra front one you could always mount it on the rear twice as easy.

 

[B14573r]

but wouldnt it just bottom out when you ride

 

[01blaster_freak]

It didn't bottom out an this guy that weighs 190 was riding it, i wouldn't recomend it for jumping just regular riding. Plus you said you don't ride it much anyways.

ok well im bidding on a 250r rear shock now so ill probably just go with that

 

[blastermaster14]

no i dont think you should need to remove the swingarm butits possible

 

[suprex]

did the 250 shock fit?

 

[B14573r]

yea but it raises the back up 3 inches and it is way too stiff

i agree go with 400ex or z400 shock!!!

Yes stock rear is junk, get one off a 400. They work great.
