shustack Posted February 20, 2013 Report Posted February 20, 2013 Bought this banshee i am in the process of changing the color and doing a frame up build basically. I was told i had lonestar gen 1 a arms. so i called lonestar and ordered all new balljoints and bushings. when they came in they werent right. The ball joint was to small for the spindle and to big to go into the a arm. So i called back lonestar and they said if its to big where it goes into the a arm its not theres. Sent them back today. Below is some pics of the ball joints and what i have of the a arm. They are currently getting re chromed, i dont have them back yet. They are +2 +1. Let me know what you guys think so i can get the right stuff ordered. Thanks Joe My fat fingers were pointing to the a arms so the chrome shop knew what i was wanting done.lol \ Did picks of standard and mm. Hope this helps. Thanks Joe Quote
wacko2000 Posted February 20, 2013 Report Posted February 20, 2013 There Def old, but if you'd like to completely rule out LSR email them a few pictures and let them confirm wether it's there product or not!! Joe Quote
JUSTWANNARACE Posted February 20, 2013 Report Posted February 20, 2013 Those are lsr you need to call them back and let them know they are the old style that use the 250r ball joints. Back in the day you had to ream the banshee spindles to accept the lsr ball joints cause they used the 250r size ball joints. 1 Quote
bansheekx Posted February 20, 2013 Report Posted February 20, 2013 Look like Magnum brand a arms to me. Magic racing used to carry them but I don't know if they still do. I think the balljoints had a different taper that the spindles had to be reamed to make work. Quote

Called them today and told them, They argued with me and wouldnt sell me a set cause they kept arguing with me, so looks like i paid 14 for shipping and a 15% restocking fee. FUCK LONESTAR! Any other options of where to pick them up? Quote

Top Fuel Bender Posted February 21, 2013 Report Posted February 21, 2013 those are cute little balljoints if I break a tierod I can steal one of those Quote
Judge1 Posted February 21, 2013 Report Posted February 21, 2013 Those arms are most likely Burgard or Magnum, same thing. The ball joints are probably Moog automotive style tie rood joints. I can't remember the part number but someone here will chime in. Quote
Starwriter Posted February 21, 2013 Report Posted February 21, 2013 If you believe the Ricky Stator website, (Yeah I know they're fuckers that have caused everyone endless misery. Just couldn't find this info anywhere else) the MOOG es2074 and the TRX250R have 16mm threads. Yours are clearly 14 mm. Apparently the VW transporter tie rod ends are 14mm. http://www.rickystator.com/catalog/honda-ball-joint-p-41.html Quote
