I've been looking for a set of piggy back shocks for my yeti, havnt found working ones. Only ones for the XL. I want adjustable ones, I know there's the king shocks but from what I know they are cosmetic only.
 
AFAIK the only working piggyback shocks that exist are the Gmade XD Piggyback and I can't recall if they make one long enough for the rear of the Yeti.
 
Try Boomracing. I never tried it, but I heard it has working piggyback and are 'G6 certified'.
 
G-made 93 mm XD piggy backs work great on the front of my Yeti, they just require a little trimming of the cage to allow for the piggy back reservoir. I have never found any long enough for the rear ( without using a tab mount ). I have not used the Boomerang shocks but I do not believe they have any "pre load" adjustability ( for ride height ) as they are unsprung.
 
I think you really would like the Boomracing Type-G's sold by Asiatees as mentioned by Sideden.
They come in 100 and 110mm, various colors, with 3 different springs and you can position the reservoir at your place of choice. You only need to fill them up with oil of your choice. I used 30W and medium springs.
At the moment i am running them on 1 rig and they also will be on a new build.
For $31,- a pair i believe they will not break your bank. Preparing and installing isn't rocketscience.
I just switched out the black stock hoses for transparant ones and colored (red Tamiya) oil. Adding some awesomeness to them 8).
