Banshee a-arms YFZ shocks

[climb any hill]

I was unable to get any of the above. I ended up with with Quicksand A Arms & fit perfect with the YFZ shocks.

Ok, but do the quicksand ones have the lower shock mount, mounted lower on the arm like the ones mentioned?

If so where can i get a set of them and about how much are they?

The mount is not lower, I think it sits even vs high simply because of the extended arms. I bought my pair used. They're pretty expensive if you buy new but come with lifetime warranty. Here's a link: http://www.quicksandmotorsports.com/aarm.htm

P.S. If you call Gary @ Quicksand he will tell you he fab'd these arms to fit the YFZ shocks. You can ask him about the mount position too! He's a cool guy!!!

Yes i have seen the write up that mullet man did over at HQ im still consedering doing that if i dont end up getting different arms.

That walk through is killer and it looks very easy to do...so im looking around for some of those first.

The yfz arms do look killer on the shee though...i would like to see if i could do a complete swap...arms, calipers, aluminum spindles and sterring stem...i would like to see if that would all fit and could proly pic it all up on yfz centarl for dirt cheep...
I think it will all work without much modification...we mesured my friends stem on his yfz and its about 1.5" longer and looks like it would bolt right on to my shee. (as im 6.1 235) that should be better for me being longer.

Do you think that would all work? I would think it would handle, brake and feel all that much betetr without the cost and its not like im huckin tripples all day on the track so im sure it would all hold up. Would be a sick little set up.

Also when i through my yfz shocks on it rasied the front an inch or so with the preload seting all the way at the top so i would geuss it would drop down a few inces like you say but i would thing if i crancked down on the spring settings it would sit nice again ...but i forgot the first ride with those shocks that it was raised up so i dont think i would notice much .

I've seen that whole front end swaped over from the yfz to the banshee [arms, calipers, aluminum spindles]. I've also seen the yfz spindles & calipers bolting straight up on to stock Banshee A Arms. Never heard about the steereing stem though so let us know if that works out for you. Check out how my springs are set. The front end sits perfect & I'm actually thinking of settting them stiffer.

That looks awsome man....im thinking im going to get a front end of a yfz and see how it goes...much cheeper for what i do...thanx man.

Oh yeah ..did you cut your fenderes or did they come like that? If ya cut them did ya jus tjump right in and cut or did ya have a template or something cause i want the same style fronts as you just i will prolly screw them up if i cut into them.
