My LT arms are holding up awsome

[jlhughes750]

I've been doing kind of a long term test on some XC Long Travel AArms for my YFZ..... There from Gibson and sold by East Coast ATV....

Theyve been on the bike for nearly 40 hours of practice and racing, including the 6 Hours of Rausch (we were leading early) and several grueling District 6 Harescrambles..

The arms are chromoly and feature outstanding ground clearance qualitys integrated into there design. They use a king pin set up. I have been testin a new "stud and lock nut" set up for the Gibsons and its worked out great. I have never had an issue with binding or steering drag!!!! These things are working out great.

heres a shot of my teammate Dan Ketterer taking the lead at the 6 hours of Rausch....

Check out the clearance under the frt. end.... this helps with rock and stump clearance, helps keep the arms from being scraped and still allows the bike to have that low ride height for XC racing...

[jlhughes750]

They are made and in stock, no waiting!!!!! We tested a few designs dialed in the best set up and now there ready!!!!

They are availible with just the AArms and tierods OR the better way to go, for just a few more peanuts u get the AArms,and Gibson tierods, with an adjustable steering flag to correct any bumpsteer issues from stock....


Shocks: We used Axis. less than 2 weeks wait for the shocks..


Note: This thread was based on my experiences and my opinions, I was excited to share info about a product that worked so well and was availible to everyone!!!

If anyone has further questions about the product I reveiwed please PM or call me!!!!!

later, J

[Kilabanshee]

I think it runs in the 2k range with suspension.. Jay is always kicking arse in the d6 races with his gibson LT setup, deffinatly the nicest xc a-arm setup I've ever seen!

[jlhughes750]

I have said that if I get a-arms for the YFZ, that I like the Gibson's the best.......I like the East Coast ATV's.....they are set up so nice.....

[jlhughes750]

Is Gibson making LT XC arms for the 450r?

[Kilabanshee]

I think they are working on a lt450r setup but this wont be on the market for alittle while I could be wrong.

[jlhughes750]
