Morning PSAR, Rod, Happa, and Racegirl since you posted first.
Florence, again have fun and be safe. Make sure you get any pictures of the wrecks for us to laugh at when you come back.

on the arms... i've got some ball joints that might be the ones you need but i'm not sure, about how big is the hole through them arms & is the end of the ball joint tapered or smooth w/ a valley in the middle... i've heard that blasters using aftermarker arms use this other type of joint... that just happens to be the same as a LT250r stock ball joint.

Morning All... I wish all the Florence riders a fun, safe time.
OK, I know where it is now. Wife said she wants some more seat time before she goes riding with the "group". I know she's ready, but I'm not going to push her into going. Since I'm still fairly new, I don't know all the common courtesies yet. Is it OK to bring friends with.... cycles??? I know they are vile, disgusting things, but my neighbor(s) want to go and that is what they drive. ...but they are only half-way evil 4-stroke bikes. Not quite Dr. Evil like the 2-strokes.

The first staging area, (kinda small), you come to is the Mission Creek Staging Area, the next road to the right leads you to the Elfendahl Staging Area, it has a big wooden sign that says Elfendahl Staging Area, you can't miss it. If that staging area is full, go back to the paved road, turn right and we'll be at the next staging area to the right, more of a big open area. Wingdude, DoughnutHolez and I will be there at 9:00am, I think Bear will be there at 10:00am. Hope to see ya there [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

AND as soon as we get back, we need to get an Easton trip lined up. Ill take care of calling up there and reserving our little area out back s long as I can get a roll call for who all may be interested in going. Remember, its not that far and theres tons of riding for all. May 20-22 sound good? Thats the week before the Memorial Day weelend.
Lets here it PSAR's . Roll Call time!!

Anyone have any suggestions....................................... .....
So here's the deal we are putting hydro brakes all around on our blaster FINALLY I got rotors,hubs,spindles,calipers all off of a 02 Raptor for a good deal, I figured they would be the same as the Banshee????? I know people have said that Banshee stuff works so i figured why not Raptor!! Anyway we got one side on BUT where the top ball joint goes into the spindle it's not threaded on the stock arms soooooo my ? is anyone have any suggestions on a "fix"(would drilling a hole in it & a strong cotter pin w/ a washer hold it??) How much stress is on the top arms???? I'm hoping we won't have to get new arms cuz I just spendt enough on the damn brakes to get it too stop!!!!! I can go take pics here in a minute & post so you all know what I'm talking about
Thanks for the help in advance
