      Does the dtx shock fit straight on the dtre? Is it the same length etc?

        @bananper I changed my Dtx shock for a Dtre (I think). It was notably larger but bolted right in.

          DTX and DTRE are the same. Check the part numbers on fowler's.

          DTR shocks will fit but they are different in every dimension

              @bananper yeah slightly. The damper is also different and the spring has bigger coils and is wider if that makes sense.

                    In terms of stiffness I can't say I felt much difference, it feels slightly higher with the R damper.
