i figure sooner or later someone will look into this. How hard would it be to adapt the '05 dual A-arms to an 2004 or older diamondback? Is the frame so different that this is not doable at a reasonable price? Feel free to speculate.

 

cant be done, the whole front frame is different.

I agree not worth the effort just by a new from from www.teamsimsracing.com

 

Not worth the effort. DItto.

 

Thanks for the replies, I suspected this wouldn't be very easy to do.

 

dinli's website doesn't show the diamondback as a dual A arm atv...is this a new version and is it an improvement thats worth updating to?

 

Yes it is new for 2005. And yes it is really a great improvement. You won't believe the differance.

 

i got a very good deal on the 2004 that i bought, but i am kinda wishing that i had bought a '05 for the dual a-arms. Is the front suspension still overly stiff like all the mini's?

 

No, If you get extended a-arms with elkas you wouldn't beleive how good it is. We also have a 90 Mod and there doesn't seem to be a differance. Yeah!
