Best shock replacement

[Lukeatc185]

Whats a good replacement for a worn out rear shock on a ytm 225 dkx.

and did they make a wider axle for this trike? its a 93.
or am i stuck with wheel spacers?

Im not sure on the shock. For the year you mentioned, you meant 1983, and not 93, RIGHT?? The wider axle will be Super rare and hard to find. Im not even 100% sure if they made one for it, but I saw one on ebay a year or two ago that stated it was for the DX, and it was a durablue that was pictured. Spacers would definatly be the way out.

Buy the wheels and hub from a sport yamaha quad. The stock yamaha aluminum wheel are offset from the factory.

i am looking to replace the rear shock on my 85 200x and body got any info n a good place for shocks for decent prices and where do i haveto measure from to order a new one

200x shock ^^ Ebay has loads of them. Is yours blown? You measure the rear shock from center of eye on top to bottom. I dont really know of any replacement shocks for it that would'nt take serious modification. The biggest problem is how the bottom of the shock mounts, with the wishbone style mount not a lot of options there. Good luck.
