Will the 88-90 a-arms bolt right up to an 87 frame? Thanks in advance.

 

i know the 87 are different. so i would have to say no. but not 100% sure

 

No they will not. on the 87 the upper a-arm is mounted with a solid long *** bolt, on the 88 to 90 it it mounted with 2 small bolts like the bottom a-arm. Unless you added another tab and modified the frame I do not think they would work.

These are 88 to 90
88 to 90 A-arms on e-bay

These are 87 model
87 A-arms I just bought off e-bay

Hope this helps

 

Thanks for the info. Is there an advantage to the 88-90's over the 87's?

 

I am also wondering...if i bought an 88-90 frame, what else wouldnt work from the 87 besides the a-arms? Thanks again.

 

Steering stem is different, reeds are different, head is a 6 bolt on an 87 7 bolt on an 88-90. A few other small things. Advantage of an 88-90 is parts interchangability. Advatage of 87 most power.
