Jgspahn Posted September 17, 2014 Report Share Posted September 17, 2014 I'm going to use this thread for my suspension questions.. Riding: mostly open fields, back roads and some trails, hopefully a little duning in the near future. Current set up: Stock frame Stock swing arm Ohlin fronts Rebuilt stock rear Unknown a arms Unknown rear axle Question #1: I have unidentifiable a arms, but they are aftermarket. What/where do I measure to find out what they are. What does +1, +2 mean. What does full flight a arms mean. What does long travel a arms mean. Thank you guys in advance because I know usual will be full of excellent info on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KAMIKAZE Posted September 17, 2014 Report Share Posted September 17, 2014 Not sure I could measure a stock arm for you to Compare to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But no pictures right now was told they were modquad but didn't know modquad made arms. I uses a 72 vw beetle ball joint. I have a part number at home if ya need them.

If they are the same then I def need that part number.. what about the tie rod ends, would they be the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

do-work-son Posted September 18, 2014 Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 Same here. I have never seen or heard of another set. They made/ make swing arm so? Never changed the tie rod end but would assume they stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trickedcarbine Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Hmm, Eyeball Engineering? If you can get in touch with them, try pullng a number off what ever ball joints are in there now. You might even be able to get them at the local auto store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might even be able to get them at the local auto store. im not sure that they're even a company anymore. I can't find anything online about them, I'm having these used a arms I bought last year re-powdered and I had to destroy 2 ball joints pounding them out. i'm pretty sure they were the originals and had never been out before, because we had to use torches. I don't see any numbers on them either Edited January 6, 2015 by Jcarney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
