Does anyone know the answer to this? I have a set of raptor shocks that I have on a 23 and want to love those to the new 858 when I get it. Given that the spindle and a arms are different, does anyone know of those raptors will still fit?

Based on what I've observed being used on some of the RMSHA race sleds they will probably fit. A quick call to Raptor should give you confirmation.

If it helps at all, my old Fox Float shocks from my 2018 Mountain Cat fit on my new Catalyst M600 this year. I changed the valving a bit in the swap, but they fit fine. Thus, the geometry is essentially the same -- at least the eye-to-eye lengths are the same.

My friend tried some Raptor Kinetics from his Ascender and the spring was too wide and was rubbing on the arms.
