Heres my 96 warrior before I broke a balljoint and decided to tear it apart and hopefully make it better.

My stupid ass non replaceable balljoint

Heres where im at now:
My rear suspension parts:

New a arms:

Works shocks:

Rear parts installed:

Front:

More:

Its got dmc exhaust, k&n with billet adapter, asr+2 a arms, works doubles with rezzies, steel braided lines, billet line clamps, acerbis hand guards, tusk clutch and new suspension bearings through out. I powdered coated my a arms, swing arm, wheel hubs, brake, rotor hub, backing plates, caliper brackets and rear shock linkage. Still have a long list of things to do but this is where im at now.
Not as cool as some of the others on this site but its definitely better than it was. Any suggestions are welcome.

I was out riding and got to the top of a hill. All of a sudden it get really hard to steer so I forced it and something went pop. So I stood up and about that time the bottom of the wheel came out. I could see it like it was on its side. Lucky for me I was going slow at the time. I hear that can cause a nasty cart wheel.

Yeah you got lucky, but its just another reason to modify, break something, replace it with something better. good luck with the build up.
