ScrewMachine Posted May 2, 2005 Report Posted May 2, 2005 Without seein pics it's difficult to say, but I'll go ahead and throw in my .02 Some of the original pipes for the Shee were designed around the J-arm frame. They stretch way forward and if installed on a later A-arm frame, clearance with the top bolt could be an issue. (Because the A-arm is longer and reaches further back) I've seen this happen before and could be what's up. Anyhow, post some pics when you get 'em. I'm sure everyone on here will be more then willing to lend you some advice. DJ Quote
wayfst Posted May 4, 2005 Report Posted May 4, 2005 try switching the pipes. put the left to the right and right to the left. see if that helps 363314[/snapback] better yet, turn them upsidedown and point the stingers staight up! Quote
J-Madd Posted May 4, 2005 Report Posted May 4, 2005 I have seen a set of the old Toomeys (T3? T4?) for J-Arm banshees hit A-arms on newer Banshees. Quote
