Wertzy Posted March 9, 2008 Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 Forgive me if you have already answered this question, but do you offer a FULL conversion? As in the arm kit along with shocks? If so, how much for a complete kit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2001Stroker Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 I'm starting to think the guy is MIA... Well, I was reading the posts before this, and he mentioned that he was going through a fire academy. He said it was going to take 9 months total. So, maybe he is struggling for time. I'm sure he'll get back to us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrideA250R Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 I bought a setup from him, and it installed great. The only issue I see is the steering stops on the stock steering stem do not contact soon enough, so the rim contacts the front a arm if you do a full lock turn, but in all honesty, this setup will turn circles around any OEM setup today.

Meat Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Just a thought. Selling products on BansheeHQ and not giving a little back to Lee. IMO you should become a Premium Member if your going to profit off the forum. Anyone agree ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it wasn't for the HQ, he wouldn't be selling as many kits as he already probably has. :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2003LimitedBanshee Posted March 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Hey guys, Yes time is a bit difficult to come by, but I am trying to keep up as best as possible. I do offer complete conversions that are ready to bolt on. Shocks have been harder to come by lately, but I currently have two kits in stock that include upper and lower a-arms, my exclusive spacer/sleeves made for this conversion and the option to upgrade to NOSS tie rods (highly recommended!). Complete kits, less shocks, are going for $335 shipped via UPS ground to the lower 48. That price includes the NOSS tie rods I mentioned above, a $40 option. As far as a Premium membership is concerned, I see the link above my posting right now, so I will definitely check it out. I haven't sold a great number of complete kits, 6-8 so far I think, more parts for the conversion, which have a pretty small margin. But, as I recall the Premium membership is pretty cheap. True, without the HQ, I would have been lucky to sell one. :beer: Thanks for all the interest guys! - Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a premium member last year but it ran out, i was just trying to re-sign back up a few days ago and I could not get the link to work, it took me to a page where it tole me the yearly price was $30, but I couldnt sign up for the life of me. I'll have to re-sign up tho asap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshee_dunes Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 I almost forgot, I am still offering the modification service for anyone that has 450 arms they have purchased but would like to save the hassle, measuring and worry by sending them to me to be modified. Just a quick reminder, for $125 I will modify your lower arms using my jigs, Thanks! - Brian If you don't mind me asking, what exactly do you have to do to the 450 lower arms when you modify them?

2003LimitedBanshee Posted April 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 If you don't mind me asking, what exactly do you have to do to the 450 lower arms when you modify them? To make a long story short, you trim the front of the front a-arm mount and the rear of the rear a-arm mount. The trick is in the measurement of the modification. In order for it to work, you have to be very specific in how much you cut off of each arm to allow it to fit, but not so much that you create slop. That's why I created a jig that mounts to my metal saw; it allows me to slide the arm in and cut to the exact measurement each time. There is also a modification performed to the lower bushing and install the spacer/sleeves. Hopefully that gives you a decent picture without an overload of info. - Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeepermc Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 I have a question- What kind of camber/caster numbers are you getting from installing the 450 A-arms onto the banshee with the mods you make to them? I'm very interested in the details and possibly getting a kit if the numbers sound good. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm very interested in the details and possibly getting a kit if the numbers sound good. Thanks Good question! I actually haven't ever calculated the numbers, but could estimate them with a bit of time. I'm actually out of town for a car show, but I could look at it next week. At first guess I would speculate camber is going to be in the -3* range and caster will be at about 1.5* or so. But, i do not have a front end rack to truly calculate it, but I can get close with the tools I have. Thanks for the interest! - Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
