bonzai272 Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Ordered my Elka Standard Dune Edition shocks and they arrived from Canada only a few days later. Ordered Wicked +2 +1 a-arms in deep candy purple powder coating on Christmas day. I had those in only a few days too. Great packaging on both and both very nice products. The installation on the a-arms was a breeze and Im extremely happy with the product and setup. Its just amazing compared to stock. I highly recommend both of these.

moneybags Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 That is the same setup I have. :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonzai272 Posted January 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 no its just +2 a-arms. and Im not sure what the offset is...or if its too much. I just got the front rims and tires from Rocky Mountain and the rims are "4/156 Douglas .125 Wheel 10X6 2.0 + 4.0". Is that not good?

RoushRacing13 Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 I gotta give my thumbs up for Wicked Products a-arms. They sent me mine in bare metal without shock mounts and sent me some CRMO steel to finish them myself. Thats a pretty cool thing that, as a business, they trusted me to customize their product. Not to mention, they never treated me like I was stupid when I told them i was going to put LTR 450 front shocks on my MX banshee. I hammered on them all season and even the ball joints are still amazingly tight. Top notch in my book!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoushRacing13 Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Another shot of the Wicked Products Roush Kustom Edition. Going to Fox Evol's this year. The stock LTR's are great, but my riding style and 200 lb rear are too much for the stock valving and spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaNsHeeJuNkEy Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 i have a set of rims with the same offset 5and3 and i had no problem with my ball joins. and i beat the fuck out of it too. shouldn't have to worry about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbcustomz Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 You have no idea. I made the mistake of tearing my perfectly reliable 99 banshee down to polish the cylinders about 6 years ago. Yes I said 6 years. Then I decided to port it, get a long rod crank, polish everything aluminum, and powder coat the frame. Only problem was lack of time and money. Went to vet school and had a kid so the good ol banshee took a back seat. I have alot of half polished parts and a frame with half the welds smoothed out. I am going to try and get motivated to start working on it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
