Specially for JJ. I can remember you bought a set of LT Elka's. Here is something for you consider and will compliment those shocks.

Enjoy!
Thanks! small problem of the $489 + shipping lol. I'm saving money and collecting parts for my BVH 4mm...
I cant see those spindles clearly, but they appear to be stock?

The a-arms I have now are home-made +2 inches, with 6Deg Caster fixed, I can't remember what the camber is adjusted at.

I have the Elka's which are quite a bit longer than the YFZ's so probably will have to do some fabricating to make them fit without binding the ball joints.

Will probably have to start new a-arms from scratch.

Should be about 3 inches longer than STD Elka shocks. 75mm is a lot to make up. Some input on the LT systems that I have noticed: With the STD travel arms, your shock fixing point is on top of the arm and with LT, it is +/- 1/2 inch below the arm. Would make up a lot of length already just by looking at that.

Nice, you are going 4mm BVH port. You will enjoy it. Congrats man.

Just thought I would post this up for you as the price is good. I know by saying good, it is still a lot of money. New ones is around 800 USD. I also think those spindles are standard.
Good price for sure, thanks for the heads up E, will see, might still buy some LT arms along the way, I don't have much time for fabricating when I'm at home...
J.J I know you also want to mod the Banshee frame geometry to adopt a "real" LT setup.....
We all know the LT setup on the banshee has a lot of bump steer, I can tell you its a heck of a lot, I have already played with the front suspension to see how much of bump steer there is when you will fit LT, I wanted to go LT.... Even with the stock setup there is some bump steer, I can feel it when riding hard through rough terrain, if one can completely illuminate it on a banshee the quad's handling will improve a lot allready....
