Last I heard the Raptor rods were available direct from Carrillo for $175. Sorry to hear about your quad Wash!!

 

thanks extreme, do they have a website?

 

wsh, they do but I can't seem to remember it. Something like carriloindustries.com something like that.

 

found it carrilloind.com

 

I've seen rods on sudcos web site but I don't know if they would have one for the rappy or not or if it would be any better than stock. Might be worth a look though.Hearing about some of the rods failing is why I have'nt upt my comp. yet.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

 

Man this sucks, I want to put my motor back in my Raptor. But now I will not feel safe unless I tear it back down and have a rod put it. I dunno who's more pissed, me or the wife. She wants to kill me because I want to spend more money on the Raptor.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

Wash, I feel for you and your pocket book. Thats alot of money and I don't want my motor to look like yours. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

 

my wife is the same way clutch,she says you just want to get a new rod for it.i told her it might save me some money in the long run.her reply"you're so full of shi!"women????

 

My wife doesn't even know what the heck a rod is.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] But when I told her about the tranny thing she took it well. Maybe she is getting used to it.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

Thanks for the link.

My wife knows what a rod is [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] oh, wrong one. LOL

Whitebread, I don't think you have to tear it down all the way to change the timing chain do you?? I thought you were able to access and change the chain by removing the left side case cover??

 

i dont see how that could be done,maybe its just me but i had to take the ac magneto rotor and the flywheel off to get to it.
