Dmcbanshee Posted September 3, 2006 Report Posted September 3, 2006 I want to make a new powdercoat on my frame this winter and I'm asking if someone has already Gusseted his Banshee frame?If so, do you have pics and which are the places to gusset? Thanks Quote

FireHead Posted September 4, 2006 Report Posted September 4, 2006 big red has some gussets on some spots of his frame . shoot him a pm I have basically the same gussets as BigRed does. I don't have any pictures that show them very well. If he doesn't have any better picures. I might be able to scrounge some up. :baseball_mitt: Quote
BigRed350x Posted September 4, 2006 Report Posted September 4, 2006 I have them between the main frame and the lower mounting point on the sub-frame. Where the two parts of the sub-frame meet back by the grab bar, under the front engine mount, behind the shock tower mounts going from the vertical below the shock mount to the horizontal frame rail beside the shock mount, across (left to right) the sub-frame under the seat, up from the horizontal frame rail to the steering tower, and a backbone gusset along the back of the steering tower, also have the front steering stop gusseted, and where the steering shaft mounts to the tower is gusseted. I've flipped the shit out of my banshee and nothing has cracked or broken. If you do the sub-frame right and you stand it up, the rear grab bar should bust off the frame and nothing on the sub-frame should bend. Grind the grab bar mounts and weld them back on and your good to go. hehe Quote

bbcmudtruck Posted February 13, 2008 Report Posted February 13, 2008 (edited) I have a new frame and want to avoid buying another one in the future. I have done a search and all the pics have expired and no longer work. Would anyone post up some pics of a gusseted frame! Greatly appreciated. Ryan Edited February 13, 2008 by bbcmudtruck Quote
