okbeast Posted January 8, 2007 Report Posted January 8, 2007 Ball joints on my stockers are wore out beyond reason. I wanna upgrade to something that's a little nicer with heim joints, but everything aftermarket is +2+1. Does anyone make a nice stock sized a-arm with heim joints? Quote
2005SEBANSHEE Posted January 8, 2007 Report Posted January 8, 2007 why dont you wanna go a little bit wider? Quote
okbeast Posted January 8, 2007 Author Report Posted January 8, 2007 Well I'm not really sure what I'm gonna be usin the bike for yet. It's still pretty much stock yet and I haven't started buildin it how I want it yet. I'm leanin towards kind of a dune/recreational drag/trails bike. Hell I pretty much do everything so I'm just tryin to get the best of all worlds. I sure as hell know I don't feel like payin for a whole new front end...a-arms, shocks, and all. Quote
Mullet Man Posted January 8, 2007 Report Posted January 8, 2007 not doing the YFZ conversion anymore? Quote
okbeast Posted January 8, 2007 Author Report Posted January 8, 2007 Well come Christmas time I ended up not havin the money to buy 'em. Still thinkin bout it tho, very seriously too. Only problem I have is where you have to cut part of the bottom arms to make them fit in the frame brackets. It seems like that would weaken it alot to me. I may hit up the guy I was spose to get mine from and see if he's still got 'em. Do they have heim's or just balljoints? Quote
EastCoast Banshee Posted January 8, 2007 Report Posted January 8, 2007 Well it all depends on how good you want to the front end to be. Me personally i do mx so i need wider a-arms and some really good shocks. As for you, you could get some +2+1s for 400-500 same price as aftermarket a-arms with stock width. As for the shocks and brake lines the brake lines are long enough for +2+1s and the shocks thats up to how much you feel like spending. Pick up some yfz 450 shocks or some works for cheap. Either way it'll be the hell out of the stock setup. Quote
Mullet Man Posted January 8, 2007 Report Posted January 8, 2007 i picked up an extra set. going to mod them and sell. be ready in 2 weeks. only need shocks and tie rods too be complete Quote

2005SEBANSHEE Posted January 9, 2007 Report Posted January 9, 2007 Wider is better... Denton sells their rec. arms for pretty cheap. Much stronger, not to mention wider than stock. They could put you together a package for a good price Quote
