Debolt Posted May 20, 2013 Report Posted May 20, 2013 I have 2 banshee 1 was a project with no spark and it has a bad top end and was heavily modified the other was a brand new only run 3 or 4 weeks then crashed off a hill climb known as suicide! Both a-arms are bent (upper)and maybe lower the rear axle is bent for sure don't know I fame is bent or how bad how can I check it or should I just use the other frame? Any help would be great thanks Quote

noonansar Posted May 20, 2013 Report Posted May 20, 2013 Should be pretty obvious if it is bent. Look for cracked paint around weld areas, where tubes come together, and near factory bends. Another obvious sign is if good straight parts don't easily fit or bolt holes don't line up. Just inspect the frame and use common sense. There is a good chance that it is tweaked, and they do not straighten easy. Quote
m671054 Posted May 21, 2013 Report Posted May 21, 2013 If both arms and axle bent for sure the frame is bent at the subframe and the steering stem hoop. Only thing its good for is cutting up for a drag chassis Quote
Deadbeat Posted May 21, 2013 Report Posted May 21, 2013 swap all the bent parts out from the bent one and swap in the straight parts from the dead one, if it doesnt look right swap EVERYTHING over to the straight frame and ride the tits off it..you could do it in one day Quote
