banshee-raptor ball joint switch
#1
I need some info on switching A-arm balljoints from raptor to banshee. I have a bent set of raptor A-arms and my banshee needs some new balljoints. They look like identical ball joints. How do i get the balljoints out of the A-arms to make the swich? Has anyone ever had to change balljoints on their banshee or raptor? I know that the raptor and banshee use the same breakshoes, because i changed them both today. When i got my new A-arms for my raptor I had to drill out the hole on the spindle to fit the Tie-rod balljoints in and i drilled too much. I ruined the first set of spindles and had to purchase another set from YAMAHA and that set me back about $300. So for those of you getting new A-arms be careful! I hope this helps someone and i hope someone helps me with my question.

Think we're getting things a little confused here. The tie rod and tie rod ends for both the banshee and the raptor are completely replacable.
Now, as for the ball joint on the a-arms, unless you have aftermarket a-arms, they are not replaceable. (The only notable exception I can think of to this is the '87 Warrior, which did have replaceable ball joints.)
