I got these wheel spacers and stock hubs and such on my blasty.

Now im planning on racing this summer.

Would i be safe using those or getting longer a-arms or the aluminum spacers?

Also i dont have the studs it comes with and was wondering were i can get replacements?

If your going to be racing MX or jumping a alot, Wheels spacers are not recommended! Get a arms and extended Axel

yeah you don't want to use those racing/jumping, you can but you are likely to bend or break something.

Yeah im going to race a decent ammount,on the rear i already have a +2 axle,i just dont have enough money and cant find any +2 a-arms.

 

[liljatownboy]

well it isnt a good idea to run spacers on the front anyway

 

[Cmh156]

Anyone know were some cheaper +2 a arms are then? Hahah. Need my swingarm done too...

Your only about 60 miles away from me, I could probably help you out on extending your swingarm.

Serious? Isnt medina outside of cleveland? Also how much do you think it would be to add 2.5 inches to it? I can do some decent stick and mig welding if it matters.

Just send me a pm.

only time wheel spacers are exceptable in a racing situation.. is if your doing flat track or ice racing.. since your not jumping

GET A arms it makes the quad so much stable considering the blaster in stock is such a small quad

hmm im gona have to look at some yeah i know they are expencive but raceing is expencive thatts why i dont do it cause if u want to own ur gona have to liek rebuilt the engine after every race prety much... atleast thats wat the pros do

 

[ruthless_one3k]

I have an extra swingarm I'm going to be extending soon. Any advice on how I should do it? What kind of pipe to use? Problems I might run into?

 

[chrisroberts916]

On mine I got box the same size as the swingarm, I think 1x2 and cut two pieces 4" I then got some 1/2 flat and cut 4 pieces 8" long I plug welded the flats inside the swing arm for support and guide. I cut my swing arm right after the shock mount, so I had three pieces. I seen someone on here cut thiers before the shock mount and extended it there using the new cross tube for the new shock mount. Which was probable easier because I had to relocate my chain guide and skidplate mounts and he didn't.

In the second pic you can see the flat standing on end weld across the top for support. All in all I probable have 4 hours including sandblasting, paint and rebushing it. It is amazing how much it improve the ride, alot more stable and the front end stays down.
Don't forget your going to need a new brake cable and chain or atleast 8 more inches of chain.

Yeah i think im going to pick a cheap one up from ebay and do this in metal shop since we got stock,welders and sandblasters everything i would need.

 

[chrisroberts916]

It not bad to do. I would find the thread I was talking about and see how he cut his. It would be easier in the long run.

thge a-arms he sells are not burguards. they are ASR. still good arms, but not long travel.
