The only way around it is to buy some used a-arms

 

Also Mulletman on here has a write up on how to install yfz a-arms on a banshee with minor modifications. You could probally pick up a cheap set of those on ebay. But you would also need new or used shocks.

what is +2+1 mean. i ride track and fields no dunes yet, that brings the tires out more right. and that would include buying shocks too?

+2 width, +1 forward = +2+1 (per side)

 

arm and a leg is what they will cost ya. figure easily upwards of $1,000 for shocks, arms and tie rods :ohmy:

damn!! a grand nope i dont think ill do that ill just beef up the little tabs that are holding the ball joints with some steel plates

[Mullet Man]

lol, used wont cost that much. maybe just an arm, you could probably get away with keeping the leg

 

for new ones, $1,000 is on the cheap side (from what i have seen) rip off IMO

Find a set of good used +2+1 a-arms off e-bay and a set of YFZ 450 shocks also off e-bay. I am running this setup and love it. Take the time to adjust the shocks to your type of riding. You won't beleve the difference.

I've got it.... STOP CRASHING YOUR QUAD. Hospital bills are going to cost you alot more than a-arms will.
