z28gabriel Posted October 7, 2007 Report Posted October 7, 2007 (edited) it looks like the upper arms are facing the wrong side Edited October 7, 2007 by z28gabriel Quote
wacko2000 Posted October 7, 2007 Report Posted October 7, 2007 it looks like the upper arms are facing the wrong side Is that in regards to my setup?? Quote
Banshee 79 Posted October 7, 2007 Report Posted October 7, 2007 I E-Mailed ASR with pictures of how my top arms were put on and he said they were on the correct way. Take it for what it's worth! Quote

wacko2000 Posted October 7, 2007 Report Posted October 7, 2007 okay guys I sent ASR acouple pics of my setup to see what was going on and this is what they said From: [email protected] Add to Address Book Add Mobile Alert Date: Sat, 6 Oct 2007 20:43:37 EDT Subject: Re: (no subject) To: [email protected] PS Make sure you set it up with 4 to 5 degrees of positive caster. This means the top arm trails behind the lower a-arm. When you look straight down at the Big Collar on the spindle side of the arm, you should see the entire top collar and the front 1/2 of the lower one when adjusted right. Any questions, just give us a call next week. The big swoop goes on the back just as you have it mounted. It is done that way for shock clearance. Quote
fishwater Posted October 7, 2007 Report Posted October 7, 2007 I wonder if it is the difference between the old & the new arms? I am pretty sure I have the old arms, maybe they changed them? Quote
wacko2000 Posted October 7, 2007 Report Posted October 7, 2007 I was thinking the same thing..the ones that I have are new, They are the PSP, There could definately be a difference between new and old...I say what ever way you can get them to fit fuk it... Quote
EastCoast Banshee Posted October 8, 2007 Report Posted October 8, 2007 Ok this should make it simple. Look at the threaded part of the a-arms where the ball joints thread in at. they should be slightly slanted towards the back of the quad if looking directly down on the installed a-arm. This goes for almost every a-arm iv seen for a banshee. Quote

Hollister_Hitman Posted October 8, 2007 Report Posted October 8, 2007 ok yeah looks right becuase of the 1" forward do the shock mount should be 1" back and the upper need to clear the shock Quote
wacko2000 Posted October 8, 2007 Report Posted October 8, 2007 ok yeah looks right becuase of the 1" forward do the shock mount should be 1" back and the upper need to clear the shock this may be a stupid question but, how do you determine left to right? when you are on the bike or when you are standing infront of the shee looking at her? Only because in your pic the a-arms are labeled... im alittle confused. lol Quote
