    Question Post info of Model & year with questions for better results and answers

    SC20121010-112012.jpgHey Jim, not trying to be a smartazz, but if you post info about what model, year & if its an SE5 or SM5, we can better help you with answers. Not knowing this info, I just took a stab in the dark, pulled up the BRP Parts Fiche, and put in an 09 RS SM5 and as you can see here, the front and rear shock numbers are different. I'm thinking if they were the same, they'd have the same part number. I don't know this for fact, just seems logical & trying to help you out. Dav n Ted~SC20121010-111911.jpg

    Front and rear shocks are quite different and not interchangeable.

    thanks D & T seems logical that front mand rear would be different because they have different functions, just thought i would kill mtwo birds with one stone.
