    Banshee.
    Any year.
    Mounts upside down in Tecate.
    Does not work with some aftermarket swingarms.
    Have to enlarge the Tecate upper mount hole.
    Be sure to get the bolts/washers/seals with the shock.

    Length is slightly shorter than stock.
    Spring rate slightly higher than stock.

    I've used them on 3 different 85 T3s. I'm very happy with them.
    Should be no problem on the 84.

    I've bought them in nice shape for as little as $25 but that was a fluke.

    Plan on $75-$100.

    Why not rebuild the stock shock? For 50 bucks you can get a new seal head, bumper, and oil. Rebuilding it yourself is not that hard, that way you save on labor.

    Not sure a Banshee shock is going to be much of an "upgrade." The 2001 Raptor 660 shock also works with minor mods--larger mounting holes, I believe. It has a remote reservoir but it's a bit longer than the OEM shock.
