One has a carrier, one does not.

The 86/87 Westcoast was either never made or very few were so it would be very rare; I'll take it off your hands if it's an 86/87 200X Westcoast :D I call dibs...........

The back will have a tube diameter similar to your stock one if it's 83-85, or about 1" larger if it's for the 2nd gen. X........

It could be for a different year/model altogether? who knows.......

How do we know what reaches when we don't know how long it's extended?? Getting too far ahead of yourself.......

I'd get myself a longer nice new SS braided hose anyhow....

The 83-85 adjusts the chain at the frame. The 86/87 has an offset carrier you rotate to adjust the chain.

The shocks are different, mounting, geometry, lower link - everything.

It could be done but one is made for one and one for another.

Where's the pic?? That would answer this real fast :D
