Installed the banshee rear axle last night and now off to get some fuel. I may also be looking at a new yfz 450 r...

So I am in need of some help for the next purchase. I am looking at extended a-arms, but should I go for long travel or standard. I don't plan on going LT in the rearend, so I feel like going that route in the front would be pointless. Also the quad is going to be used primarily on MX tracks...

Currently I am reusing the stock bumper. I have been eyeing a couple aluminum ones for the front and rear though.

Not looking too bad for an 88'

I finally have some rims and tires mounted along with my steering stabilizer. Hopefully this week the wider rear axle will be here along with a couple clutch parts and my heel guards.

Thanks. I am slowly working on it

Thats the plan currently. I am still trying to locate some some shocks and research the a-arms I want.

Here is how it is currently sitting. Front shocks are going away along with the rear axle, and probably the stock width a-arms.

Thanks for the reply, I have read through that thread a few times and with only the 3 front shocks listed on the first page no other non conflicting info is provided for a stock front end shock replacement. A few people mentioned 660 shocks work and then some say no you need a arms. I am just...

Can anyone tell me if a 15.5" shock would work with factory front A-arms and mounting points? Thanks for your help.

Are you running the factory A-arms with those shocks?

I am starting my blaster rebuild, a little back story is my uncle purchased a 88 Blaster brand new and ice raced it in NY until 92. Then it sat and he moved to NC, but he has passed away and I received the quad from my aunt a couple years ago. Well I picked it up from my home in NY this past...
