Looking for frame options, and I have a 200x51mm fox shock, and wondered what needs to be done to make it 57mm stroke.....

Yes I think so as you can get the 57mm converted to 51mm.

Yes, I asked Loco the same as I thought I wasnt getting full travel, but the shaft length is the same, 51mm just has some internal limiting gubbins.

Different length sealhead usually, changable if you have the parts (Mojo won't sell them to anyone) although may have a suitable item for a stripped 'test' shock depending on model and year

Cheers for the replies....
Think I'll stick with is as it is, as changing the shock was the tip of the iceberg of things I'd need to do for a different frame!,

Just use some negative reducers.
