  1. You're missing a clamp on your right side airbox boot to the back of the carb....
  2. These wins were on Duncan built motors running twin carbs and twin PT pipes. The motor builds varied some based upon the type of racing event.
  3. Bummer on your tie rods.... I'm assuming those were oem?
  4. He has several very valid reasons to be discouraged with these money pits that we play with, but I have no business expressing those reasons on here.
  5. Eh... He and I talk regularly. He's a little discouraged lately, and for several good reasons. I don't think he's totally out though.
  6. ride.race.live speaks truth Proper suspension setup and investment is key to making a Banshee rideable if you have any sort of desire to ride aggressively
  7. Gotcha. I haven't looked in a awhile. I have the AC units that are similar to these except with the solid heals guards, no nets, not the old school little heal guards, but the newer full size with the same shape and height as yours.
  8. Copy that. I was thinking this design had been discontinued for the Banshee. Thanks
  9. Are these designed to fit a Banshee, or a different bike?
  10. Sounds like you need to do a leak down/pressure test once you button things up again. Make certain you don't have an air leak.
  11. Did you experience any fitment issues with the swing arm and the Elka linkage? I know of two other members recently who ran into clearance troubles with the shock and swing arm when using the Elka linkage.
  12. You will surprised at how well they turn and navigate especially for a crew cab. That Dana super 60 front axle allows those trucks to turn very sharp. This drastically improves how they feel and their tight access maneuvering. My 550 will turn almost as sharp as my two regular cab trucks that have the old school Dana 60.
  13. My 550 rides and drives surprisingly well. Very smooth. But it has a heavy steel flatbed on it with boxes full of tools. The truck is 12,500 lbs without fuel in the slip tank. It would be worth asking@f1hdr how his 450 pickup road empty before he converted it to the service body. The main thing for daily driving is the rear end gearing. I think the 450 pickups come standard with 4:30 gears. I'm not sure if the new alumaduties offer other options...? My 550 has 4:88's, which is perfect for heavy towing, but definitely too low for dd use. I plan to add a Gear Vendors overdrive to my 550 for driving empty which will give me the equivalent of 3:73. That will greatly improve milage and extend motor life when running empty.
