Forks for Frames

Hi all, i have snapped my old Shogun XC 300 frame, will the forks from this bike fit to an MTB Frame triple butted?

Many thanks in advance.

What size and type are your forks?

The most common are: 1" and 1-1/8"

Plus you have to consider the exact geometry of frame (steerer angle) and fork (trail and rake). If you mess this up the bike will be unrideable.
