Do Blaster quad shocks fit on these buggies? front or back or both? do other shocks works? I'm just looking to replace the stock junk ones with something decent and preferrably used. _________________ Baja Reaction 150 ~ Uni Filter ~ 128 Jet ~ NGK Iridium Plug
Yes, the will fit once you grind down the eyelets and add a shackle to compensate for the additional height. For $80, you can upgrade to new ones that bolt in from Buggy Depot. _________________ 08 Joyner SandViper 250

I appreciate the asnwer, but i didn't quite understand what you meant by both statements. Shackles? and the ones from buggy depot... is that for all four shock or front or back?

The Blaster front shocks fit the rear of the buggy. If you get 14" shocks you only need to shave/grind the eyes, so they will fit in the mounting brackets. Guy, a former dune owner made shackles to accomodate a slightly longer shock. As for buggy depot If it's an upgraded shock i would assume that is for each shock. But the blaster shocks are fantastic. If you find some front shocks for that Reaction let me know.

I think the BD shocks are priced per pair.
A few shots are below of the Blasters with upper shackles.
Pghruby; would Travis' shocks work on the front of my Carter GSR ? Back shocks perform OK (some damping there), but front are basically just springs
Glade at Edgepowersports, looking into getting Carter parts for me, now I got Bad Wheel bearing on the GSR Need Carter Parts !!! Gotta ditch my local dealer
At least the Sand Spider ready to ride & holding up well, _________________ Team Farm...

What length do you need? The Buggy Depot front shocks are 9.75" and the rear are 14.5". If you are close to that length, they should work. They are softer so you will get more compression at idle. _________________ 08 Joyner SandViper 250

pghruby, I measured 13.5" back.... 12 5/8" front. I have some blaster shocks coming from ebay. I'll let everyone know how that goes in the next couple of weeks.
I was riding my buggy this weekend and the past few weeks i've been telling myself that these shocks can't get any worse and every time i go out They Get Worse! There's one trail that i used to ride on and now it absolutely violently shakes the living s**t out of me. it's murder. Hope i can resolve this shock problem soon. _________________ Baja Reaction 150 ~ Uni Filter ~ 128 Jet ~ NGK Iridium Plug
