Hey Guys and Gals, I have 06 mach z with piggy back shocks, would like to take these off and put on shorter shocks. Where can I find some, I heard the f-chassis had pretty short one's. Or can I run my stock one's with out spring and would it drop front end. Thanks

Those are good shocks I would get them revalved and shortened with spacers :cool:

Where do the spacers sit, I thought they make them stiffer and where can I get them. Who revalves them. Thanks

Check post #12 on this link for a photo of the spacer installed ski-doo snowmobile forums - DOOTalk.com

In Alberta there is Tim at Enzo racing who could do this or in Ontario there is Frank at Shocktec SHOCK TEC

What's wrong with your shocks? I actually have a spare set of piggybacks sitting around that are 17.5" long (shortened 1/2" from stock). Didn't want to sell them really but if you're in a panic...

Nothing is wrong with shocks, just need to shorten them up for racing. So it looks like you take out the shaft and install spacer inside to keep the shaft from coming all the way out, alot cheaper to do that then buy new shocks.
