I found a set of Fox shocks from an Arctic Cat but they were only 14.5 inches so I had to lengthen them to 17 inches

Cut eyes off the bottom of the
Fox shocks and cut a 2.5 inch section off the old shocks and welded them to the Fox shocks

Just need to make a coller to cover the section welded together to have more of a factory look.

See how the bottom needs a little attention still but they look good on the ole Husky

Great pics, I liked your idea for the shocks. Much more reasonable considering the cost of new ones.
