Any recommendations on using a newer rear suspension? I was wondering if I could install a skid out of a newer Apex or Vector. My skid has the two rear shocks and square tube control arms. I see the newer skids have one rear shock and round tube control arms. I think I have the Pro-Action? I'd say its the "Con-Action" HaHa! It doesn't have much rear travel and seems to bottom out easily. Are the shocks rebuildable. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks.

the rear shock on the war suspension is not rebuldable. all the rest of them are. shock out of a viper works and is rebuildable for a decent price.

Of all the versions of the pro-action over the years the skid in the warrior seems to be the best for ride quality(According to SNOWTECH mag).While the rear shock is not rebuildable I had Frank at Shock-Tec install a remote reservoir onto the stock shock(This made future rebuilds permitted).The high/low speed compression was a nice benefit but the cost was about $500CDN(Pricey but still cheaper then the OEM shock or Ohlins).Stick with a viper shock for cost savings.Front arm of these skids give a sharp hit on square edge humps(Already been had the arm out twice for welding/bracing due to cracks which are common on this skid).FRA on bottom setting(Bolt in lowest position) helps a lot in big humps.
