You're missing a clamp on your right side airbox boot to the back of the carb....

Awesome

What about Doug eichner in all his wins on the shee? He didn't gncc though.
These wins were on Duncan built motors running twin carbs and twin PT pipes.
The motor builds varied some based upon the type of racing event. -
Bummer on your tie rods....
I'm assuming those were oem? -
How does someone get discouraged with hardware like that laying around the garage?
He has several very valid reasons to be discouraged with these money pits that we play with, but I have no business expressing those reasons on here.- 2

Good luck finding Brian. Haven't seen him in awhile. I think he is hanging up the Banshee stuffs.

Eh... He and I talk regularly.
He's a little discouraged lately, and for several good reasons.
I don't think he's totally out though. -

Good post Tfaith

ride.race.live speaks truth
Proper suspension setup and investment is key to making a Banshee rideable if you have any sort of desire to ride aggressively -
Just bought a Serval thanks to this thread...Me too lol

I think the old design had the 2 bars in the heel guard area

Gotcha. I haven't looked in a awhile.
I have the AC units that are similar to these except with the solid heals guards, no nets, not the old school little heal guards, but the newer full size with the same shape and height as yours. -
For banshee

Copy that.
I was thinking this design had been discontinued for the Banshee.
Thanks -
Little bit of bitching, drilling, and bitching and they're on. I think they sent the wrong nets though but they fit for now.. Lol I still like em
Gonna throw 4 new tires on tomorrow. Ripped a nice 3" hole in a back one the other day.

Are these designed to fit a Banshee, or a different bike? -
Duncan or a polished AC racing bumper

Duncan - first choice
AC - second -
Sounds like you need to do a leak down/pressure test once you button things up again. Make certain you don't have an air leak.

Do you know what jets are in your carbs?

*Good deal*

No, not that I know of. We planned on using that linkage and Fireball was sent the specifications.

Gotcha
God deal -
Custom Fireball stock length swing arm. Not sure if we are sticking with it. long travel linkage.

Did you experience any fitment issues with the swing arm and the Elka linkage?
I know of two other members recently who ran into clearance troubles with the shock and swing arm when using the Elka linkage.- 1

Yeah im not sure what is available gearing wise, havent even gotten that serious. That doesnt concern me as much as just the hassle of driving a damn truck thats 23 feet long and wide as fuck. I have to park in a parking structure at work, that is what i think will drive me batshit crazy.
You will surprised at how well they turn and navigate especially for a crew cab.
That Dana super 60 front axle allows those trucks to turn very sharp. This drastically improves how they feel and their tight access maneuvering.
My 550 will turn almost as sharp as my two regular cab trucks that have the old school Dana 60. -
No doubt, the question is not whether ill love the 450 for towing, its how much will i hate it for daily driving. I dont tow my 5th wheel a whole lot as i dont seem to be camping or riding much anymore. When i haul my gooseneck its usually only from farm to farm (less than 20 miles) and not all that often really. So the question is will the benefit outweigh the pain in the ass. I guess if i was a baller id get a 1/2 ton for daily and then a dedicated tow rig but fuck all that wasted monies.
My 550 rides and drives surprisingly well. Very smooth. But it has a heavy steel flatbed on it with boxes full of tools. The truck is 12,500 lbs without fuel in the slip tank.
It would be worth asking@f1hdr how his 450 pickup road empty before he converted it to the service body.
The main thing for daily driving is the rear end gearing. I think the 450 pickups come standard with 4:30 gears. I'm not sure if the new alumaduties offer other options...?
My 550 has 4:88's, which is perfect for heavy towing, but definitely too low for dd use.
I plan to add a Gear Vendors overdrive to my 550 for driving empty which will give me the equivalent of 3:73. That will greatly improve milage and extend motor life when running empty.
