98bonerSTOCKshee Posted January 16, 2006 Report Posted January 16, 2006 nice work guys! $$$ for $$$ this sounds good and easy to do.... I have seen works shocks going for around $500.. My next upgrade will be suspension.. I might just have to try this... Geuss I need some YFZ shocks now! Quote
Ls7colorado Posted January 17, 2006 Report Posted January 17, 2006 so is there any way to lowwer the front some with these shocks? Quote
Stinger Posted January 20, 2006 Author Report Posted January 20, 2006 No way to "easily" lower it except for getting shorter front tires...anything can be done with a welder though. You can't even tell it's any higher...matter of fact I forgot all about it until you just mentioned it. Quote
AverageJoe Posted January 20, 2006 Report Posted January 20, 2006 Put a set on mine, think I paid around 150 shipped or em. Couldnt believe the difference. Highly recommend. Quote
hellride96 Posted January 20, 2006 Report Posted January 20, 2006 i also installed a set on mine last night, great pics thanks alot. and yeah for the money, a very awesome add on compared to the stock setup. the 200 i paid for them, is the best money ive ever spent on my bike. Quote

jburner Posted January 30, 2006 Report Posted January 30, 2006 Is there any way to install these by just grinding on the a-arms and not the shock itself. Quote
Stinger Posted January 30, 2006 Author Report Posted January 30, 2006 Is there any way to install these by just grinding on the a-arms and not the shock itself. 466390[/snapback] Yes, if you slot the lower hole in the a arms you should be able to get away with that... Quote
sanddragon2004 Posted January 30, 2006 Report Posted January 30, 2006 (edited) you can just grind the shock mounts i wouldnt grind on the shocks. Edited January 30, 2006 by sanddragon2004 Quote
sanddragon2004 Posted January 30, 2006 Report Posted January 30, 2006 not alot of clearance on these arms, so i will make the next set with more shock clearance. but they work really well and for 425 for arms and 200 for shocks im pretty happy with the outcome. Still got some adjustment and fine tuning to do with the setup of the shock. and the camber but over all say they work well. Quote
Turbobanshee_kid Posted January 30, 2006 Report Posted January 30, 2006 So how much would i need to give you For the shocks and the A-Arms like that? Are they Plus +2's? Do the ball jonits come out of those ones? If so how much are they from you? Quote
sanddragon2004 Posted January 30, 2006 Report Posted January 30, 2006 standard vw style ball joint. arms 425 I may have another set of yfz450 shocks 200$ Quote
jburner Posted January 30, 2006 Report Posted January 30, 2006 I really want to put my 450 shocks on without grinding on the shock itself. Could someone show me what they mean by slotting the lower hole in the a arms or Grinding the shock mounts? I assume this is not the same as the DIY post at the beginning of this thread. Quote
