quadracer . com has a few pics of some that they gusseted so look there to get some ideas

 

thats the link i posted on my post...All i really want to know now is what to do around the foot peg's and the front shock mounts...i think i have a good plan for the rest of the front end.

 

800screws, whats with the pics, it looks like your quad is floating, and the plastic is cut weird... it looks like you took that out of another picture and put it in a different backround... on a couple of em?

 

he has his quad on a stand...thats why it looks like its floating...but i always kinda wondered why he cut his right rear fender off so much, i know its probably for the kick start, but i dont think that much needs to be taken off to get good clearance.

 

no, i kicked it over when i was ice racing last year and the plastic just shattered. so i cut out the broken piece.

 

ahhh...i see...well i remember you saying you broke your footpegs while jumping...do you have an idea of what kind of gusset i should do for them??

 

no idea? dr.q at macdizzy said my suspension was bottoming out and thus the frame and pegs where taking the brunt of the jumps. he said u don't need to brace them.

 

alrite well i think im still going to gusset the front end a little...i can get the metal cheap and have someone who can weld, so we might as well...i'll probably just put 3 or 4 cross braces in between the a arm mounts, and a few corner pieces. Im dont think it will ever need it, but better safe than sorry.

 

well i know a guy that can get me the metal and cut them for free...so i need to know what to get. I was going to get 1/8' steel plates that were between 1' - 2' wide, and about 6' long to make the braces between the aarms. Then make a few corner pieces out of the same stuff...what do you think?? I dont want to do tubes because it would be too complicated, but should i use other sizes than im going to use?? Please help soon, i need to finish this thing up.

 

come on guys...am i gonna have a problem puttin this in or not??
