A stock 660 shock

Ahh ok never mind

 

[duneracerweston]

and besides if i try a 660 with my set up i can know how i need to have a aftermarket one valved to match so i guess its going to be trial and error im also going to try and use both the 660 linkage and 350 linkage with some sort of configuration to get more travel

 

[duneracerweston]

got my rappy shock all cleaned up not bad for 45 bones it has zero oil on the shaft and it cycles like a dream it so smooth and uniform

 

[87warrior917]

Thats nice, im thinkin of getting one. How much does it lift the rear?

 

[duneracerweston]

Alot on the stand wont know forsure till its all together and on all 4

 

[duneracerweston]

here is a pic of it with the shock and rear end bolted up and its +5 taller then stock to the top of the grab bar with +1.5 subframe and no sag so its about +3.5 over stock with no sag and about .5-1.5" depending on how i set the sag on the shock

What linkage is on it now?

 

[duneracerweston]

strait warrior im thinking about using the strait peice off the rappy linkage to drop it down but i will have to measure the swing arm is at 36 degrees 30 is optimum normally anything over and the swing arm trys to run under the bike so we will see

 

[beastlywarrior228]

remember to make sure you keep the same leverage in the link

 

[duneracerweston]

ya im gonna check clearance first thats the main thing that worries me but idk it may set perfect with the motor and me on it but we will see

 

[duneracerweston]

got the rear brakes mounted but with the change in angle and mounting points ect this rear line is to short so i need to order a +2 rear break line o.o this thing is a pain in my butt but i dropped the jug off and it will be done monday and then the top end is finished then all i need is a clutch and its good to install then the front end is next if some one would buy my old shocks i would order the front end and clutch Ugh......

:heck:

 

[duneracerweston]

ok ive got a question and i want yalls honest opinion ive got 2 choices in front suspension setups

setup A

FFR +4+1 Lt a arms with 16" yfz shocks with 13" of travel
price 449.95 +cost of tierod ends brake lines and shocks

setup B

ASR +4+1 LT a arms with 19" long travel shocks (unknown travel#'s)
price 499.95 +cost of tierod ends brake lines and shocks

 

[elwood]

most likely more trsvel with the 19" long shocks, but really do you need that much

 

[beastlywarrior228]

Have you thought about used lt like walsh, roll or houser

 

[duneracerweston]

ive looked but they would be 'itch to make work the ASR and FFR are easy fixes to fit a warrior otherwise i would put Leagers arms on it

Them companies use chromoly tubing dont they??

 

[duneracerweston]

All companies stated in this thread use 4130 cromoly steel

 

[beastlywarrior228]

Use the 19" shock if you can
