I've got a fox podium shock from the back of a cannondale quad, but I'm going away today for 2 weeks. so I'll try it when I get back.. might be a good alternative if it fits.

Craptor rear shock and run upside down. No need to remove air box. Been working for me for years.

Well i tried to swap the shocks!! it's not far off but is about 1 inch too long and the ressie pipe connector coming from the shock body needs to be changed.
I've spoke to the dude that builds the shocks on my kfx450 i race and he said he could fit a spacer inside to shorten it an inch! i'll try and post some pics of the shock.
