spike Posted November 13, 2007 Report Posted November 13, 2007 you can get a stainless steel bolt kit from ebay for around 100$ they are perfect for what you want, I got one on my last rebuilt and i'm really happy with it, I didnt use them on critical points like motor or A-arms/shocks but for everything else its great, and I have a lot of leftovers for spares too.

wacko2000 Posted November 14, 2007 Report Posted November 14, 2007 Good luck with the rebuild.Im just finishing up mine, it went pretty goood.. make sure you change all the bearings and seals... While you have it stripped you should get some gussets put in some of those weak spots on the banshee frames...What year is that shee? and yes you have a A-arms frame... Quote

wacko2000 Posted November 14, 2007 Report Posted November 14, 2007 Well my build took me awhile bc of work.. I was working some crazy crazy overtime.. The build really shouldnt take that much time at all...Everything goes back together pretty quick.. what type of riding do you do and what are you looking to get out of it? Quote
Screaming Yellow Zonker Posted November 14, 2007 Report Posted November 14, 2007 I did mine this past spring Check your steering stop they like to bend and break. Now is the time to replace the swing arm bearings and chain slides. Front arm bushings. Lower steering shaft bearing. Good luck and have fun. Quote
toyotaman Posted November 14, 2007 Report Posted November 14, 2007 hey you can get a full banshee bolt kit from cascade innovations, they are all stainless steel too. but its pretty pricy. i cant remeber how much is was though. my bro bought a banshee bolt kit off line from ebay, it was new but alot of the shit didnt work. and they dont come with like that big swing arm or the ones for the upper a arms. i think that goes for all the kits.
