Need some more help/advise 2014 AC XF7000 ELKA shocks

[race24x]

So I found a guy that has a set of Stage 5 Elka shocks off his Arctic Cat XF7000 137 Limited for sale. I want to upgrade my shocks and these seem like a great deal at 650 Canadian plus shipping. I am just not sure the suspensions are the same and if I can even use the shocks on my 2017 Sidewinder. I like my suspension, but it can be so much better and my rear has no adjustments. Does anyone know if these will fit and if that really is a good deal?

CRAZY DEAL

650$ canadian for the 4 shocks?!?!?! Wtf ..... Maybe they are from my buddy sled that has ben stolen.....

Viper 137" and your SW137" it's almost the same valving setup.... shock lenght are the same.....

Chek for the spring rate, some speed shop are making stupid spring setup.....:-/

This is just for the rear, but I assume this is a pretty decent deal? I just want to be sure they fit and not buy some shocks that wont even fit my sled. I am a little worried about buying across the border, but hopefully credit card protection and or Paypal will protect me. Anyone know of other ways to protect yourself or check out a guy in CA selling something?

These came off an Arctic Cat XF 7000 limited so I wasnt sure that was the same as a Viper and Sidewinder

If they are from a 137” and your sled is a 137” they will fit. That said I just dealt with a set of the Stage 5 Elkas. The ice scraper in the fronts was so tight on shaft the shocks were sticking. They also use a seal made of plastic rather than a normal oring or x ring. All this can be fixed or maybe the set I worked on were defective but look for any leaks and push the shocks through entire travel before putting them on.
