Big Blue Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 I had his a arms and they were great, there a quite a few members on here with his swingers but I dont remember who they are. Quote
HotCarl Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 Where are you finding them for sale? I can't seem to find them. Quote

HotCarl Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 http://www.quicksandmotorsports.com/ Thanks. FYI I bought an alba one with carrier for the same price. I know the alba one is really nice, but I bet quicksand has way better customer service. Quote
Bansh-eman Posted December 7, 2006 Author Report Posted December 7, 2006 yup they are same price but like i said above i no longer do my business with alba... after the salesman i finally called it quits on them... only way im gettig something from them is if no one else has it in stock and i need it right away... other then that ill pay shipping or just go to a few other shops in my area and get it...

Animalman294 Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 I've heard that quicksand has some good swinger's, but personally have never seen their work. I just remember some people on here talking about them and I remember them saying that they were happy with them.............. Might try a search............. :beer: Quote
Bansh-eman Posted December 7, 2006 Author Report Posted December 7, 2006 im going to get one of them and see how well they are built... from the site they look pretty nice... Quote
Chemical Castration Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 Quicksand swingarms kick major amounts of ass. Gary's welds are simply second to none, plus the warranty he offers is a no bullshit lifetime warranty. He always takes really good care of his customers and is without a doubt one of the nicest people you'll do business with. I know right now he's a bit overwhelmed with work so it may take a couple tries to get a hold of him. You'll definitely be happy with it. Quote
RNBRAD Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 PM Justintoxicated, I believe he has one. Quote
Justintoxicated Posted December 20, 2006 Report Posted December 20, 2006 Welds are good, chrome is holding up well. Basic swingarm design with aircraft quality welds. Not bad for the price. I think he warranties them as well but you should call and ask. it took a long time to get mine because he was having problems with chromer but I believe everything is squared away now. Service is good, and Gary if fun to talk to. The only thing I did not like is the non metric bolts to lock the carrier in place, that and the fact that I can't get my gearwrench closed end around the nut due to the position. I guess I could change them to Metric bolts myself heh. I'm very picky and theres alot of crappy products made for banshees as I have found out the hardway. This is not one of them. It also survived my crash without any damage, although I had to replace the frame..... If you want to see pics you can lookup my rebuild in the pics section. Quote

scooter Posted December 20, 2006 Report Posted December 20, 2006 looks like good stuff.hows there shipping time?they have most of this in stock? prices seem good if the quality is good Quote
ClimbAnyHill Posted December 20, 2006 Report Posted December 20, 2006 I can only speak for the a arms & they are top notch without a doubt.. Shipping should be quick from Arizona to Cali. Quote
