i got the lights out of a 4x4 quad catalog at (metro motorsports in phoenix) for only 39.00 they take bulbs from anything from35wats up to100wats a piece. alot cheaper than lazers and just as bright

ya they do make any a-arms you want for any bike, just cause they hand fab them from scratch on most all orders, not the cheapest around, but one of the best i think. if your planning to keep your quad for a long while i would go to them. there stuff is always guaranteed not crack or break or they will replace it

for the banshee shocks i had to relocate my top shock mounts by cutting into the frame. alot of work and not cheap.very soft ride but next time will just pay the price of works and save some headace

the front suspension rode great, but i only rebuilt the rear shock so the back was not good in the woops.on my new 87 im doing im going with works this time, and a works ultacross in the rear i heard from a guy who did that said it made a world of difference

Well i took my LT out today and rode with my buddy.It rides pretty good for me but I weigh 280lbs.So I make the suspension work a little harder.The only problem I had this trip was the counter balancer nut cam loose and sheared the key.Good thing I was only 1/4 mile from the house.It seems to run pretty good.But more power is needed to haul my largeness around.II can spank my buddys warrior.But thats no feat.What do you guys run for mixin your oil in your bikes.I made my fuel 32-1 and it smokes like hell!

Kutter, I just won the bid on the lights for $19.99 plus $8 shipping. There is a guy that sells them on ebay all the time with 19.99 starting bid. Dont get caught in a bidding war though, just bid on a set that has no bids. If you lose, just bid on another set from the same guy. I have seen them go for over $50. They look good in the picture but I just paid for them today so wont recieve them for about a week. I am thinking they have got to be lighter than the stock ones and cant look any worse. Hopefully I can interchange the bulbs and have one high watt and a lower wattage bulb and hook up th stock switch. I will post a pic as soon as they are installed.

Man, as far as the shocks go, sounds like there is no cheap way around it. If you want to play, you gotta pay. I have been asking around about other quads shocks that would work on the lt and havent found any yet.
