125D Front Shock upgrade

Hi Guys,

Can you recommend a decent shock upgrade for a 125D? I was looking into RFY shocks -

Those shocks work well on my Rhino but they're a longer size. The seals started to leak after a year of hard use so I replaced them with the same type. They are rebuildable so I'll replace the seals and use them on another bike.

Looks like the same ones I used, bought them on fleabay. I also did the rear. the single shock was to weak it bottomed out. so I did a duel shock conversion.

Cost me about $3.00 to make the set up, all you need I two 4.5 inch bolts and the lock nuts to go with them. I used the bushings out of the old shocks to make up the space in between the mounts. There's a video on you tube that gives albite more detail and a closer look out how I did it.

Nice job. I just ordered two sets of the ones in the original post. One for a 125 and one larger for a Bull. Hoping to get the 125s tomorrow and the other ones next week.
