If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.
Same length and diameter? Try it. Should work, and the fork action will be better, they are better forks. You may have to use different wheel bearings and axle, can't remember the diameter of the 850 axle.
Use the brake calipers from the 850 too, they work a lot better.
The 850 is not an L model, is it?

If the axle is at the bottom of the fork tubes, there should be no problems.
If the axle is beside the bottom of the fork tubes, they are from an L model.
If that is the case, you will need to also use the triple clamps from the L, as they have the proper offset for those tubes.
