rx7500hpt2 Posted July 26, 2005 Author Report Posted July 26, 2005 get your new spindle stuff figured out? 396912[/snapback] no I haven't had the time to work on the quad, I left it at my cabin anyway. When I get a carrier for that 500 axle I'll bring the quad home and finally try to finish it. I need the whole rear end off of it so I can put my stock banshee back together and sell it. Quote
rx7500hpt2 Posted January 31, 2006 Author Report Posted January 31, 2006 Finally fixed my geometry errors for the front end. It can cycle almost 17in of wheel travel now with the correct kingpin angle set. In order to utilize the travel I would have to re-mount the shocks and probably re-valve and spring it$$$. Maybe later, it works pretty dam good with 12in of travel right now. Quote
Shee-Male Posted January 31, 2006 Report Posted January 31, 2006 Thats a solid lookin home fab setup, I think if you go to sandbros.com they have pics of the sundahl frame with the mad wheel travel, they have a spacer on to of the spindle...just a thought. Quote
