Wish I could convince my mom to still buy me stuff, lol!! JK, yeah, i heard about the spot under the seat, but thanks for the reminder! I'm sure this thing will get WICKED REINFORCEMENT, I don't want to be fixing it anytime soon, lol!

I'll post some pics when I get to fabricating. I'm going to get a "rolling chassis" this weekend and start tearing it down. I'm gonna do a frame-up restoration......gussett and reinforce the frame, fab up the +4 swinger and reinforce it, got a 400ex rear shock on the way(I think), gonna try to...

Yeah, there isn't many 60' tabletops in XC Racing, lol! Thank God, because I'm way too old(29) for that sh*t! I have a buddy that made one +4" out of 2 stock ones and it is pretty much bulletproof, I guess I better knock on some wood now, though, lol!

Good point, I'm fabricating my own extended swinger out of 2 stock ones, so I should be able to make it work pretty well. Thanks for the info!

Is the 400ex rear shock still available? If so, pm me if you get a chance. Thanks in advance.

Hey guys, just wondering if anyone has any thoughts on a 400ex rear shock for XC racing, harescrambles, woods racing. I have stock now and have been told the 400ex shock would be too stiff, but haven't ridden one myself obviously. I need something that is gonna be good in tight woods and lots of...

My biggest fear is having to live life without 4 wheelers, lol!!!!!!!!

Awesome, dkomarek, thanks for the info, I'll definitely check that out! That's why this forum is kickass!

I'm a pretty big Rams, fan, I live just across the river in IL. I'm thinking we MIGHT make the playoffs next year, but that's if things go well. I like the Offensive line signing(Jacob Bell, I think?) and I think Al Saunders(Off.Coordinator) will turn the offense around but we'll see. Something...

dharbeck, so you are saying they will work but might not have every bolt attached somewhere to mine? They won't flop around or anything, will they? Thanks in advance for your help and sorry for all the questions.

email sent!

Just wondering if the newer plastics fight right up to my '98 model. I like the newer look but don't want to have to do a lot of modification. I'd like to avoid the $$$$ of buying Maer Plastics, lol!

Thanks bro, I appreciate it, Lord knows I need all the luck I can get! LoL!

Yeah, I hear they make good stuff, but I'm trying to save $$$, like everyone else. If I don't get that parts bike or can come up with some cash, I'll probably go ahead and get one from them eventually!
