Who sells the spacers for yfz a arms

I don't have a lot of money to spend. I sold my old house and I'm doing this with the new houses remodel money. Lobo II with the Elka rear link, stage 5 shocks and a -1 swingarm and I'd be good. That's not an option.

Your looking at maybe 100.00 difference doing it the right way with some good used banshee +2+1 arms vs yfz arms. Yfz arms are usually used too..so that's a wash.

If a 100.00 is causing you issues as far as budget. .I'd just wait until I had the money to do it right.

If it doesn't turn out that great, I'll buy banshee a arms. I'm trying to end up with a good banshee. Not something to race. My wife will be on it a lot more than me and she won't go all that fast but stock is too narrow and the stock front shocks I have are OK at best. The full flights that use yfz shocks are another idea I had. I like stock yamaha shocks but they don't last forever and being able to rebuild them means a lot to me. I'm trying to think about down the road with this one. I've looked for used a arms and I find beat up rust ones and the ball joints look terrible. I'll spend as much buying them and fixing them as I would have in a set of laegers.

Not true. Search the classifieds here. Post a wanted ad for them.

 

It WON'T turn out great...that's what we are telling you. But apparently you think you can somehow find a way to make the yfz arms work good where countless others haven't?

For what you need , just about ANY brand of banshee based +2+1 arms will work fine. And any of them would be better than doing the yfz.

As always....people get an idea in their head and you try to educate them and they won't give any additional info the proper weight.

Here's the point....you are being told what NOT TO DO! Your idea isn't a 7-8 on the 10 scale of perfection. It's actually a step down from stock. The whole YFZ shock idea is one of the WORST to become widely heard of. We had a guy who did that to a bike in our group.....complete shit!

I preferred stock arms and shocks with the reverse offset front rims.

But hey....why listen to people with years of experience. Go spend time slamming your dick in a door....then come back and tell us it wasn't too bad.

I understand...it's a budget thing. It's like you can't afford a condom, so you're going to try a plastic baggy and a rubberband. Have fun....till you figure it out the hard way. You were warned.

You can lead a horse to water guys ! I have seen more of these yfz conversion front ends look like shit . The fact that the biggest hold up to the op is a spacer says to me you shouldnt be cutting anything , if you can cut arms you can cut a spacer ace hardware sells all sorts of shit
