Factory. They are always chamfered. Should be at least.

I think they run something through when they are cast to clean them up. Or when they press the sleeve in.

Umm, aluminum cyls are are cast around iron liner. They have a keyway on the outside to prevent movement.

And in a perfect world I'm sure it all lines up.

Also got the front suspension toor off but still undecided on shocks. Going with Alba long travel arms but not sure on what shocks to pair them up with.

I picked up a set of stage 4 elkas during their legacy sale, all 3 and a link for 1300, ish.   I like them, gotta keep up on keeping them clean and lubricated though.

 I have the Alba long travel"gullwing" set, love the arms, hate the bushings and spacers.

what don't you like about them? Can I buy bushings and shit from another company that will work?

As you can see I took out the stock fuel valve and I'm glad I did because look at all the shit on it! Can't believe almost $90 for a fancy new Pingle valve though! Guess I won't need one any ways.

I don't like the cheap quality plastic bushings, ( brittle) and the crap metal pins with bad chroming. I started looking for bearings but the tubing isn't perfectly sized after welding. would need machined.  Ive broken 3 bushing at Mountainridge, and 1 at Hatfeild Mcoy, The arm moves forward and back too much, caught a tree and few rocks, and it slams the upper arm into the bushing lip, and shears it off. Im not sure if anyone else sells bushing for them, they are a different size than stockers, Alba sells a rebuild pack with same low quality pins for about 30 bux ish.  Like I said, I love the arms, bushings and pins .. not so much. I just pulled my fuel valve out a few weeks ago, and it looked just like that with a few bugs and legs.

Getting my motor back from my builder this week along with a few other little parts. But with the led light route I'm going I was looking at a 250w procom stator and I have completely fried my brain trying to under stand this dc power stuff. If somebody could help me out here I've got a question. For one what do I do with the damn ground wire? I've read that I should ground it to the frame or run a rectifier or I need a battery, every body says something different it seems like lol! And also should I just run a damn toggle switch or will the stock light switch work? I know these questions have all ready been asked but I'm looking for a straight answer
