Scrambler 500 rear shock

Hello, I have a 2002 scrambler 500. It seems to be impossible to replace the rear shock? Mine has a 19.5" fox gas shock, and no longer functions. Fox is local here in Brainerd MN and they told me they made that shock proprietary for polaris and can't get parts to rebuild it...Polaris dealer told me the shock is discontinued, they can't get a new one or parts and I should take it to fox to have it rebuilt. The aftermarket world doesn't have a direct replacement. Has anyone found an aftermarket shock or other rear shock that will work here? At this point I would be willing to weld new tabs to make different bushings fit so long as the shock is reasonably close to the correct spring rate and length.
