Front shock swap?

[Cobra429]

Will clicker shocks from a 2010 Nytro XTX fit a 2008 Apex LTX?

I don't know if Nytro shocks will fit but I think all Apex front shocks are 16 1/2" center to center if you have the measurement.

They'll fit but are an inch longer. To get your ride height correct you'd need to drop the preload a bunch. This will effectively reduce your travel though.

So then the question is what's better, the stock apex shock or the Nytro clicker cranked way down to get the height correct? The clickers came off because a friend of mine went to the fox floats instead.

I personally wouldn't use them without replacing the shafts to make them the right length. Might not ever be a problem, but I could see things bending.

I tried running some nytro shocks on my 07 attak. Rode like crap. They lasted on there for all of one ride.
