a buddy of mine had this laying around in his garage and told me if i can use it, i can have it. so i'm gonna see if i can do anything to make it fit and see how it works. i measured it and its about 1 3/4'' longer than stock, so well see. i'll post pics in a bit, i'm going to the garage to see what i can do
 
i know people have put 125 shocks on before, said it jacked the ass end up quite a bit and was a bouncy ride, worth a try though
 
verdict: it doesnt work :( oh well lol it was free. the bottom of the shock bolts up with no issues like it was meant to be there, and if i had some bushings for the top, it would go in easily too. the stock bolt will be a little big for both top and bottom, but i just mocked it up with something to hold it in place to see what it was like. the problem is that it sits like a monster truck in the rear end and when you sit on it your staring at the ground lol. and like blasterdude said, it bounces like an impala in compton. heres some pics
