Nightmare Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 I'm putting together a new set up and i want to know how high off the ground the engine cradle part of the frame should be off the ground. The old set up was 6in but it had the stink bug look goin in the back. Also i've heard something about a -6 degree angle on the swingarm. Any info will help, thanks guys. Oh, i'm using struts and racing on 300ft dirt/sand mix. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightmare Posted August 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Ok, I finally got this thing where I want it, even made a couple of track passes and didn't plow it at the same time. So now all I need to do is put on a new chain and some front a-arms I got from Troy and it will be ready.

BeeCanBanshee Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Stock frame? Did you do anything to the rear of the sub frame? Like cut it or run somthing across where the grab bar would mount? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted August 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Yes, its a stock frame. Nothing is done to the sub on this one. Sent from my SGH-T679 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fappy'97 Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Subframe looked way bent in the 2nd pic you posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted August 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Subframe looked way bent in the 2nd pic you posted. The whole frame is tweaked, I should be getting a new frame this week for it. Sent from my SGH-T679 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeCanBanshee Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Ok. I know this is way off topic but would could/has been done to the sub frame on bikes? I have another frame for mine and I'm not going to run a grab bar or rear plastic. Just curious to what I could do so it doesn't look ugly.

Nightmare Posted August 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 I've thought about that too. I've seen some guys modify the stock subs to give it the pointed look. I know badass fabrication made a piece to bolt on to where the grab bar was and it went to a point but last I heard he is no more.
