[QUOTE="brianinpa, post: 167025, member: 2394"] So I wanted to add to this thread since I am modifying these 412 shocks to work on an 1100 frame with a 1200 swingarm. The 1100 calls for part number 412-4222C The 1200 calls for part number 412-4226C The difference between the two is the length of the dampener (1100 is shorter). As it turns out, the only thing I needed to make the 412-4222C's that I have work, is a larger size ID metal sleeve that will accept the larger diameter bolt for the 1200 swingarm. How did I find all of this out? Simple! On Progressive's website it shows it: [ATTACH type="full" alt="Capture.JPG"]12785._xfImport[/ATTACH] They were helpful enough and to the point where they could tell me exactly what parts I needed to convert the lower end of the shock to fit the 1200 swingarm. Yesterday the parts arrived: [GALLERY=media, 28531][/GALLERY] Notice that these are the same as the ones above? [GALLERY=media, 28532][/GALLERY] These are the difference! As far as price goes... well I am not sure as they haven't hit my credit card yet, but it was quoted about $7 plus postage. [/QUOTE]
