leeh226 Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 I am putting the yfz450 suspension on my banshee and I'm at the point where I need tie rods. I am ordering new ones but not sure if I need 450 or banshee tie rods because of the length. If anyone knows I could use the info. Thanks......

Mullet Man Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 (edited) theres a guy on here who has an almost complete yfz450 front end on his banshee. he used 450 tie rods. (search under username "long rod todd") i just got my 450 a arms in. i'm going to use 450 tie rods as well. (scored '05 arms and rods in excellent condition for $100) how are you mounting your lower arms? i think i'm going to cut the bushing mounts off mine and install heim's in place. got some testing to do with it Edited November 4, 2006 by Mullet Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also had them move the lower shock mount on the control arm so I would have more clearance between the spring and upper control arm. Without moving it the spring was rubbing on the control arm. They done a really nice job with the extra braces on the control arm. I had the frame and control arms powercoated and it looks pretty cool. Heim joints sounds pretty cool. That should look nice.. Thanks for the info.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
