02bansheebrah Posted July 5, 2012 Report Posted July 5, 2012 ok so 4th of july was fun until my throttle stuck and shee stood straight up and rolled and it came down on the right front and bent the thin plate holding the ball joint so now i have major positive camber. i ordered a used upper A-arm off of ebay just now and realized it was for a 95, will an 95 a-arm fit on my 02? im pretty sure it will i just want to make sure.

ginger Posted July 5, 2012 Report Posted July 5, 2012 as long as its a A arm bike, and not J arm, (which you are good, J arms were late 80's very early 90's) they will swap. Quote
bansheesandrider Posted July 6, 2012 Report Posted July 6, 2012 90 on all the same. 90 is a J arm bike. A arms came about in 91! Quote

Finch Posted July 7, 2012 Report Posted July 7, 2012 ive seen a few bent like that from guys coming down from a wheelie hard. Quote
badassbanshee479 Posted July 7, 2012 Report Posted July 7, 2012 89 was the last year of the j arm banshees and yes its a common thing for the upper arms to bend like that..... there are a few companies out there that are modding the stock arms to accept a screw in replaceable ball joint.... hit up wheelman chassis i am sure he can hook ya up if interested...

No, 1990 was the last year for J arms!!!!!!!!!!!! I have owned a brand new 1990 straght off the dealers floor and it had J arms, it was red and white with a blue seat just like 1990s were supposed to be. Quote
