First timer here! Pick up a Fire Fox 620 and fitted a Pred 459cc. I'm looking at replacing the original shocks but can't find much information. My real question is, measurements of shocks are those from eye hole to eye hole with Max, Min, or in the middle on the adjustor? Currently mine are both set for max travel and measured 14.5" in the rear and 15" in the front. Or does anyone happen to know the true length shocks it came stock with?

• 12 inches (approximately 305mm).

• Common Upgrade: Many riders switch to heavier duty or stiffer motorcycle-style rear shocks, which are often slightly longer at roughly 13.4 inches (340mm) or 14 inches, though this may alter the ride height or require modifications to your lower mounting tabs.

These are factory sizes. It's going to depend on your plans for use. I would look more into how stiff the springs are and how you want it to perform.

Good luck, I'm sure someone else will chime in soon.

Welcome to the madness!
