Old video but hopefully you can still reply. Dumb question, but when you say front wider than rear, is that meaurement from the outer edge of each tire or the tire centerline? Im assuming you mean outer side wall of front being wider than outer side wall of rear?
I still answer all my comments even from video #1. But yes from outside to outside. I like the front wider slightly cause it seems to handle better for my taste and I trail ride so if I squeeze through trees, the front fits the rear follows
Couple questions 1: your frame looks fresh painted or powder coat but I noticed the honda original stickers on frame how did you preserve the stickers. 2: Is there a bolt kit for frame/ chassis Thanks
You can find bolt kits on ebay from spec bolt or alloy bolts. The frame I touched up the silver with this spray made by Seymour called alumi-blast. Advanced sells it
I have a question and I hope you can help me with the arms that you installed on your quad, what measurements are +2 or +2.5 and the other was to see if you could help me with the compa link for the chickpea ball joints and the steel rod stainless steel that goes through the middle of the arms of the squad, thank you, greetings from Ecuador
Hey I noticed on the bottom control arm your kit came with castle nuts , I had recently bought the same kit I noticed mines came with same nuts as the locking ones is it safe to use?
@@garagemcmatt I have the same arms you have. I’m having trouble running the +2 brake lines. Can you show a video of how you did that. The junction where the lines connect to go up to the brake lever hit the radiator air guides and the fitting that go into the calipers are hitting the lower ball joint threads.
I tighten it and see how much it rotates past where I want it be be. Then loosen it, twist it back the same amount the other way then tighten it from there. Or use a set adjustables on any flat surface.
#portedhead. Alba arms are some great quality options on a budget I loved the way my long travel aarms pluse 2 with a pair of tcs shock handle on my old set of on my 450

Hi Great Build!
Now that it has been a Year since you made this Video, I was wondering as how you like, or dislike these A- Arms over the Lonestars?
Honestly bro I like them better they are half the price and fit way better

Hey I noticed on the bottom control arm your kit came with castle nuts , I had recently bought the same kit I noticed mines came with same nuts as the locking ones is it safe to use?

Thank you

@burt24pop I did plus 2 lines on my trx330r video like 6 months ago. Check that one out. Not a 450r but same set up in the front
How did you torque the upper ball joint without it rotating?
I tighten it and see how much it rotates past where I want it be be. Then loosen it, twist it back the same amount the other way then tighten it from there. Or use a set adjustables on any flat surface.

#portedhead im thinking about +2 a arms thanks for the tip with not running stock shocks love the videos bro PEACE
You can still run them but more than likely you will bottom them out and possibly bend something
#portedhead. Good video and very good acknowledgement on the 2 brand a arms.. .. for sure no lsr 4 me.. what u know about houser?
Arturo Medina
Had them on a 250r I had a couple years ago but it came with them
Where can I get when you do for the frame?
Oh the silver paint? It's called aluma-blast by a company called Seymore I get it at advanced auto
It's like $20 a can but we'll worth it and durable
No, where can I get the boats hardware for the frame?
