    Very nice Craig !! That is the setup I would like to purchase ... how do you like the floats ? How is maintenance intervals ? Do they need to be adjusted with drastic climate changes? Such as seasonal temps

    I like them. I have had them for about 1 year and have no issues with them. Haven't had to do any maintenance so far.

  5. Timing plate?

    I know my eyes aren't as good as they were years ago. Having a hard time reading this timing plate. Looks like it's @ +7 right now. Can anyone confirm this for me? The + & - marks aren't very good. Thanks.

    Just wanted to update this. Picked up another frame from Sheerider11 [ thanks Rob]. I also bought another set of drag a-arms from Turbo chassis. I tried the Tyson drag arms on both frames and could not get good camber alignment. Thur. the arms showed up from Turbo chassis and I got on it after diner. Turns out the original frame was bent and the Tyson arms are off. The new frame and Turbo arms are straight and alignment was no issue. The shitty part was I had to start all over cutting all unwanted tubes off the frame and grinding all of it down. So far this is how it sits after the weekend. I will need to do something with the foot pegs because I am just to tall for this chassis. Not sure if I should just lower them or go forward too.

    A little update on this. I talked to Tyson yesterday and also sent him pics. He said that these Banshee frames are junk and that his arms are welded in a fixture, so they can't be off. I told him I was going to try someone else's a-arms and see how that goes. I ordered a set of drag arms from Turbo chassis and I am not going forward with this project until I'm sure the frame is usable. Keep Ya posted.

    I'm starting on a new drag bike for 1/8 asphalt. In the early stages of mocking up everything and came across this problem. There is only one way to set camber with the strut rod and when I do this one wheel is off the ground. Take a look at the pics the clutch side a-arm is @ a steep angle compared to the other one. If I sit on the bike it leans to the right side and lifts the back tire off the ground. The right rear tire will take all the hit causing the bike to launch left. Not sure if the frame is bent. I took a few measurements and can't see anything off. I am thinking the spindle or a-arm may be off when Tyson made it. Any thoughts or info to get this thing to sit on all 4's would be great. Thanks in advance.
