EastCoast Banshee Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 I'm 100% happy with them. They a very beefy and i don't see them ever breaking. I have a feeling the tabs on the frame would get torn off before they ever bent. Also the ball joints and tie rods are really big as well. Handling wise its amazing soaks up everything i throw at it then some. Makes it so stable its almost scary how fast you can lay it into turns. As for the Elkas they are worth every penny you cant go wrong with them what so ever. Not to mention they look very sexy at the same time.

If I can ask one more question, what color are your a arms? They are not silvervein, but do not look black either. Is is a hammertone (spelling) shade or what?

EastCoast Banshee Posted May 14, 2007 Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 Mine are silver vein. I really want mat black or candy red though.. =\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWILES Posted May 14, 2007 Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 Those are almost identical to the HSD symmetry a-arms I had. No one believes how fast a Banshee can go once you get it to turn. Once you get the front-end wide and stiff you can really throw one around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalinIt Posted May 14, 2007 Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 I need to have the plus 1" forward, so that knowck the Laegers out. Does anyone know if the LSR racing a arms require spindle reaming?

Well, EastCoast, since you say that I have another question! I know your front Elkas are compression adjustable piggybacks, are they ride height adjustable also? I can see from your pics the spring preload adjuster at the top, but does the ride height adjust otherwise? Thanks alot, I appreciate it.

EastCoast Banshee Posted May 15, 2007 Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 The bodies are threaded and thats how you go about adjusting the preload or in retard terms the ride height. :tongue: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
