YRSS conversion

[Jon Lenz]

i’m currently on a ‘06 apex rtx with fox floats, i’ve heard a lot of great things about the updated front suspension and was wondering if there are any kits for conversion into my older sled.

i do not know about kits but i do know that era gytr shocks fit on my 2011 and 2016 apex xtx. bolt right up with no issues so i cannot see why you could not mount a set on yours.

@kinger was actually able to order the complete shock assembly as this is the part number for it: 8LB-237R0-00-00

@ a little over $850, might be a viable option. I know kinger is planning on putting them on his Apex or may even be in the process of doing so.

I know this is a super old thread, but did you ever do the swap? How did it turn out?

I think Kinger covered it in his “garage” post. I’d love to get my hands on one for my ‘16 Ape.

If I'm not mistaken, @kinger ordered everything right off Partzilla.

My budget can’t quite handle purchasing everything new right now, maybe down the road.

I’ll see if ordering direct from Japan can drop that price.

Partzilla shows it at just over $800 for the complete setup. Seems cheap for the shocks

That’s US, convert it to Canuckiztan money plus shipping/brokerage and things get out of hand quite quickly.

Didn't consider that!

Japan prices on some items can be less than 1/2 of USA retail. The YRSS part needs to be quoted… but as an example, the base Apex front shock 8HG-2376A-00-00 retail is $783.99. It can be purchased for about $560 USA, or $306 Japan + Shipping and customs.
