I'll post some pics when i get my front shocks and bolt it on to the quad for two reasons #1 it looks lame sitting on my bed and #2 and the most important reason is I can't figure out how to get the pics from the digi cam to my computer but there definately will be pics when it's all together I promise

Well then take them off your bed and post some pict's. It's a Laeger front end it will look good any way you look at it. Also i'm curious to see how there set up.

Was the steering stem included? I heard they weren't for the 450r.

What did it run you?

ps awsome on getting that front end.... i'm jelous.:macho

I have a Laeger's protrax front end on my trx450r and yes it comes with a steering stem , the tie rods just don't swivel on the stem like the older ones did , i would take pics but the bike is torn apart.
Later :devil:

first i would like to say awesome on what im sure is probably one of the best front ends that money can buy
secondly, its a shame that some manufacturers can charge us half the price of a quad for a front end and get away with it. there isnt any sport atv front end worth 3700 bucks imo. hopefully in the next few years prices will come down as the ammount oh ultra high perfoprmance quads goes up.
anyone ever wonder what it probably cost the manufacturer to make these parts ?
if i were to guess, i would say maybe 1000 at the absolute top, then all the markup just goes from manufacturer to distributor to us. just a guess though
