Banshee802 Posted August 20, 2019 Report Posted August 20, 2019 Alright I got some issues like always. Trying to mount up these new aarms but shits not lining up. Almost as if there isnt enough threads on the heim joint itself. The nut is all the way up but I can still move the arm separate from knuckle. Also wheel on left side always has had negative camber. Could this be bad spindle?Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

Keno Posted August 21, 2019 Report Posted August 21, 2019 You may have to use a few washers under the nut. I have to on my Fireball arms. Camber issues are usually bent arms or bent frame. 1 Quote

Camber issues are usually bent arms or bent frame.So you just stack a bunch of washers on each other??The thing is this is the second frame and set of aarms I’ve had, the only thing that stayed the same was the knuckle and hub. But the wheel still has negative camber compared to other sideSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
ginger Posted August 22, 2019 Report Posted August 22, 2019 its supposed to have a tapered cone on the top side between the spindle and the rod end i believe. I have them its been a few years since i put it together, and infact over a year since i rode, but ill try to remember to take a look. 1 Quote

I just use the washers because my Castle nuts aren't tall enough to reach the pin hole. Quote
375hp banshees Posted August 22, 2019 Report Posted August 22, 2019 Looking at your picture, your ball joint is not perpendicular to your spindle . & youve got a bigger Gap under your washer on one side than the other I think it's your spindle Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk Quote
Banshee802 Posted August 23, 2019 Author Report Posted August 23, 2019 Yes, I’ve found out that the upper spindles have been bored to an oversized ball joint. I’m getting new spindles tomorrow. Hopefully that solves my issue. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
375hp banshees Posted August 25, 2019 Report Posted August 25, 2019 Just the top? Still tapered or straight? Quote
