Bri894 Posted May 14, 2012 Report Posted May 14, 2012 I have their kit on my bike. I think it was worth the money. Quote
Infamous039 Posted May 14, 2012 Report Posted May 14, 2012 I have order a couple of there kits as well and man does it make the bike look so much nicer. Quote
wacko2000 Posted May 14, 2012 Report Posted May 14, 2012 I've purchased 4-5 of these over the years And I have shit loads of extras from every set, well worth the money! No question Joe Quote
barahonapr Posted May 14, 2012 Author Report Posted May 14, 2012 If you scroll down on their add... they tell you which bolts they dont include. I have their kit and was more then happy with it The kit DOES NOT include the lower shock linkage bolt with the grease fitting, Upper A-Arm, Foot Peg Bolts, Fine Thread Lower Motor Mount, and Main Swing Arm Pivot Bolts are not included. We include bolts for all Banshee's, all the way back to 1987. Depending on the year of your bike, you will have some extra bolts when you are done installing the kit. hey ride i know i read that but what I'm saying is that I've read on a couple other post that some bolts don't actually fit in particular the brake rotor bolts if i remember right..might be wrong but thats exactly what I'm trying to figure out considering i want every bolt replaced..thanks for the input guys.

Depends on what aftermarket parts you use. Yes the brake rotor bolts won't get used. Their shape is all wrong. But 90% of those cases are in a place where you can't even SEE the bolts. Just get the kit....and if you find a bolt that doesn't work for your situation.....you can make a list and try to find it at a store. Mostly you'll find that you have a boatload of extra bolts for future use in a pinch. NOTE: Open the bolt bags carefully. If you plan ahead, you can put your stock stuff back into the marked bags, staple them closed and you'll have properly labeled replacement bolts should you need them down the road. Order kit and use anti-sieze. Quote
DirtDiggler69 Posted May 15, 2012 Report Posted May 15, 2012 I have replaced 90% of my bolts a little here and a little there over the past few months . I do get a nice discount at wholesaler and they carry everything needed minus those specialty suspension pieces . I have swapped over everything to SS Socket cap screws and it does clean things up so nice . Now that I'm done I wish I had went with a kit BUT , for everything I am into it for under $25.00 and since I would go on my lunch break at work It didn't cost me gas money running back and forth . Overall for me it saved cash . Tacoma Screw Products ( plug ) is where I go , they could even make the custom bolt in their shop , but not really necessary unless you are going for 100% Show and shine . Quote

DirtDiggler69 Posted May 15, 2012 Report Posted May 15, 2012 Yes I did , I used the work account , I couldn't even fathom a guess as to how much the Utility purchases from them , but I make use of the account ( but pay cash ) . For reference , the 8 SS Socket cap screws for my intake today ran me a grand total of $3.51 , I didn't save the receipt for my case cover screws cost the most , bother sides was almost $10.00 . The 5 screws for the thumb throttle and front master cylinder was 1.74 ( I just bought those a few days ago ) . Quote

Order kit and use anti-sieze. sounds like a plan man. i appreciate your guys comments. I'm ordering the kit today along with a bottle of anti seize... and blastard thanks for the recommendation but i sure as hell can't get the price like you and don't have one of those around.. Quote
barahonapr Posted May 15, 2012 Author Report Posted May 15, 2012 well ordered the complete kit along with the Foot Peg Bolts and fine thread lower motor mount bolts. Didn't get the rest of the bolts that weren't included in the kit because they weren't on the site but i did email them to see if i can get them. thanks for the advice and help guys. now which would be the best anti seize to get for these?

DirtDiggler69 Posted May 16, 2012 Report Posted May 16, 2012 You can swing by , have a beer and count up what I've replaced and do the math if you like . Doors always open ! Quote
