CRAZY-SHEE! Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 ok.. heres my situation.. i happned to be washing my quad.. sorta.. not much i can do with a rebroken collar bone but anyway.. almost done putting it away when my dad points out.. hey dude.. ur freakin frame its broken. man.. :/ apparerntly after so many eyars, the paint chipped away and it rusted. eventually it rusted through. ok.. so now i need a new frame... gonna have to freaking save up a long time for this.. ok so heres my question. I dont like the j-arm system i have much.. i like the a-arm setup.. so if i were to order a say.. 1996 model frame, which has the a-arm setup.. would i be able to take everything off my 89-90 ( not sure) and put it on the new frame? ( of course with buying new a-arms) would there be any incompatibility issues? i head there may be soemthing wrong with the pipes or something?

nm351 Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 Nah outside of new a-arms everything should just bolt right up. Unless someone else has had problems with this before. I mean they don't make pipes for 87-90 and 91-06 they're all the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swrbansheeboy Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 depends on what pipes you have, the t-3's were designed for the older bikes and you have to dent em to make em work with an a-arm frame but besides that you shouldnt have any problems....

If you are in need of a frame you should check out the for sale section of HQ, I have seen frames on there from time to time, you should even put an ad out that you are looking for one , surely some will make you a better deal that getting raped by a dealership!
