i flipped it at the track and the part of the frame that holds the steering stem is bent and cracked and im not sure if the tubing is bent but mt steering stem is too slanted now. what should i do and how much is it going to be to fix or replace?

I had this happen to our Banshee and we were able to make it right again with a 6 foot pry bar. Mine wasn't cracked though.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

If I'm thinking you bent the mounting tube that the steering stem mounts to. Mine was just pushed back about 3/4". I just used the pry bar to move it back into the right position. A YFZ may be alot different than a Banshee.

RED WRENCH AKA OXY/ACT AND A SLEDGE HAMMER
For real tear it down measure it out . you might be able to barrow or rent a Porto-Power and straighten it out .
or take it to a collision repair shop that Specializes iin frames .
Good luck
