I am looking for some one that replaced their original cheap shock that came on 2016,2017 & 2018 Vectors & 2016 & 2017 Apex's. What i need is the measurement from the center of the top bolt hole to the bottom bolt hole on the old shock.
Thank You

i would measure my spare but it is out getting serviced but i had to return the stock 16 one when they gave me the 18 one for mine.
I had the new updated air fox shock in my 2018 Vector, but it has a leak in it that can't be fixed so I can't measure the distance when filled. I order a Elka shock stage 2 & want to make sure it is the right length from hole to hole.

I have the updated air shock. I can measure that for you.
The original went in for warranty.
Here is a couple pics of the original air shock and the Elka when I first got it.

OK, thank you. What is the measurement from center of 1 hole to center of other hole on the shock.

16 3/4" center to center on bolt holes.
Thanks for the information. Do you happen to know how many miles it is from Marquette to Munising by trail ? I always wanted to attend one of Tom's rides in Munising but could not hook up with anyone going through Wakefield, Michigan.

If leaving from the east side of Marquette By trail it's 50 to 60 to the Borders Hotel where they ride out of on the east side of Munising. From the west side of marquette add a hour to it.
By trail it is 50 to 60. Is that miles or minutes.

50 to 60 miles of good trail riding from the east side of Marquette. First 20 miles are rr grade the rest is forest roads. All groomed of course.
Thanks again for taking the time to answer my questions.
