The rear section looks clean, currious what the forward half looks like. It looks like they forgot to PC the inside of the hole for the shock bolt.

So whats the weight compared to the stock?

Is this designed as a drag only swing arm or is it built to take the abuse?

Price???

yeah when i took it down to have it pc'd i asked them to pc that section, but i didnt notice till it was on, i just have to live with it

this unit weighs 15lbs, and it is built to take the abuse, i asked that they leave the skid mounts off, for i only ride in the sand.

not at liberty to say how much i got it for since it was a "BRO" deal from ryan


i should have the a-arms up hoefully this week.

there are pics of them before powder coating in my profile

Did you have to have the 6-ton Jack Stand holding this up. . . . now people are going to give us even more of a hard time for how heavy this quad is [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

May I suggest using a 1/4" long piece of tubing to hold your brake cable off the swingarm. This will prevent any damage to the nice paint job. Also, black zip ties will last much longer in the sun. Basically you take the zip tie and go from the swing arm through the tubing (I use black fuel line or something with a nice thick wall) then over the brake line and back through the tubing and around the swingarm where you pull it through the connector section. This will give it a nice stand-off look.

If you need a picture, send me your e-mail address. Trust me. . . it will look 100% more professional.

Yes, I do the same thing. I used different color tubing for the stand off to match a particular theme and it does give a nice clean look.

It looks like there are 2 threaded holes intended for some type of brake line mount. Some what like stock I guess.

yeah the zip ties are only temparary, sorry bout the 6 ton jacks lol, i use those for my f350 it was all i had, didnt think about the reprocussions from using them

there are 3 threaded bolt holes on the brake line side, i think ryan is sending me something to go in there or ill just use some rubber wire tie clamps
