Banshee axle ona a blaster

[Scspeed]

Can anyone show me some pics of quads or there quads with the banshee axle, WITH OUT extended front arms?? Does it look retarded? How do they like it? Better? Worse?

I want to put on a banshee axle on teh rear but if i do will i have to extend teh front? That is my main concern. Thanks.

if you have an 02 flipp the front wheels it will be about the same width

 

[Scspeed]

i have an 03, will that still work?

 

[yb200]

you will have to get flush mount air valve stems do a search on google

if you dont extend the front, the rear will be wider, loks kinda funky, but it works. an ideal setup would be wider, but the front and rear wheels are even. thats the best way. so if you widen teh rear, do teh front also..they turn wierd with wider rear skinny front also.

So all i have to do is change the stem for the tires? Then just take the wheels off and switch them? do i take off the one nut that holds the wheel on or the four nuts when i switch it?

 

[ROCKSTAR]

leave teh big nut alone. thats the hub. removing tha wont help. take the tire off the hub (4 nuts) turn teh wheels inside out (or backwards) so teh deep part is outside, shallow end inside. you may have to fix teh valve stem so it is shorter. that requires you to remove teh tire form the rim, and replace your valve stem. im not sure what the difference is with the later models...but from what ive read, that sounds right.

 

[yb200]

yeah thats right

the newer models have hydro brakes an the valve stem hits something thats not present on the older models brakes

 

[yb200]

yeah the valve stem hits the brake caliper thats why you need the flush mount stems

 

[Scspeed]

can i use any ordinary car stem that is shorter or do i need to buy a special kind?

 

[foolish913]

as long as its short enough to clear tha callier it will work fine the shorter the better in this case lol

 

[runumhard]

I have a 99... so it would be safe for me to do that to my front rims? did it the other day but never like leave it that way.... hahaha not sure if it can handle the off set

 

[Ready2rev]

sure you can everyone here just about does it.... youll be fine.

 

[mr_3_0_5]

if you have an older style bike you need to have the brake hub that doesnt "float" to go with the shee axle..

 

[ROCKSTAR]

dont forget, you cal also upgrade to banshee hubs. the front wheels have the same pattern as a banshee already. if you have a set of shee hubs for the rear you double your options. incase you find a good deal on wheels or a wheel/tire combo. just a thought.

 

[runumhard]

ok thanks yeah im running the banshee rear...not sure whats on the front..but its almost as wide as the rear.... not sure if it has the banshee hubs
