Replacement 86 200x rear shocks?(will other atv/atc ones fit?)

[travis712]

I have no idea on this, i'm kinda doubting it. But will a 250r/350x rear shock fit on my 86 200x? Or would any ATV shocks fit? Like 250ex, 300ex, 400ex, etc.

LMK! Thanks..!

I know a 250r, 350x shock wouldn't fit, I also know a 400ex shock won't fit. a 200x shock is a no-link and has a ceratin kinf of mounting point. there is a reason why I bought a new works shock for my 200x, instead of getting another model shock to fit. I have a 86 too.

Did you get the QuadStar's? If so, w/ or w/out rezzie? How much did they cost you?

[deathman53]

I don't remember what I got, they were I the think they best they offer for a 200x. It cost me something around $500. They come stock with a rezzie and the works had a longer line, so you can move the rezzie to more plces than the stock. It works alot better than the stock one, and It was well worth it, my stock one wasn't worn out or anything. I upgraded the front end to a 84 250r and I figured I had to do something about the rear.

Damn 500 is way too much for my budget. I emailed them about there quadstars and i'll see how much there going for.

I paid about $800 for the rear shock on my atc250r if you think $500 is too much. I have a elka zero preload longer travel shock for that.

They still quoted me 510+ shipping on a quadstar w/out rez. I'm just gonna look for a used one.

Anyone here ever get a stock shock rebuilt by works?

Sure did! I got my 350x shock back from them this winter.$179 plus shipping. A great investment. Bob
