2010 RT front shocks

[StriperKing]

I have not been on here for a long time but I still have my 2010 RT-S. I installed Elka shocks on my Spyder in late 2010. This weekend I broke one on the Dragon. It snaped/came apart on the inside. If you push it back and forth the shaft moves and clunks. I ride very hard so 8 years of abuse is not so bad I guess. I also have the Baja Ron sway bar so what shocks I use is not as important as they would be otherwise. I do not want stock by no means but Elka, Fox, etc. would do. I found a deal on some 2016 F3 front Fox shocks. Will these fit on my RT? Are they they the same length? If not does anyone have an Elka shock they want to sell. Mine is the one without the reservoir but has the dampening wheel at the bottom.

Shock re-build

Why not have your Elka's rebuilt?....I think they do this in Ohio

That was my first thought.

F3 shocks won't fit. They are a different length from the RT with different top mounting points.

Thanks for the replies. Do you know where I can send them to have them rebuilt in Ohio?
