has anyone tried this combo.i remember a couple years back some tried it.any advise or comments on this setup. thanks.

 

I have some +1 a-arms on mine, and it handles pretty good. really stable in the sand.

 

What year is your DS? The newer ones have a 1 inch shorter swinger than the new ones. I have ridden +1,+1 on a newer DS which is +1,+0 on an older one and liked it quite a bit. Moves the weight over the rear wheels more and helps alleviate the dartiness of the early model years in the sand.

i have a 00 ds.i ride a lot of woods and was looking to make it handle a little better.i am going to get some a arms and heard that +1 a arms and - 1 swingarms works well.

 

Dang! Woods + Wider = bent a arms ! LOL!!
Invest in a good steering dampner and keep that thing narrow as you can for woods riding. W.E.R. makes a good dampner, but I am running a Presicion Racing dampner. I actually like the linkage on the W.E.R. better.

 

MY BAD, i am looking at +1 forward,same width.i have heard that and the -1 swingarm will improve the overall handing a lot.i think this was done by one of the rags a while back and made a big difference.was looking for more opions.

 

Find a 04 or newer swingarm. I did that and it is great in the woods. I wouldnt change the a-arm unless it was just a upper set of ASR's to improve handleing.

 

According to what AZSand said, I think he is going to have four (4) stock 2005 swingarms to let go of in the near future. He said he had 4 new Baja Xs and had already ordered 4 swingarms, you do the math.
