Pictures... Pictures... Picutures. Welcome to the site and if you need a arms or any other suspension products check out ebay its loaded with'em. Sounds like you got a pretty good deal. The only thing i would be worred about is the gears that had to be replaced. Get a heavy duty clutch. Those bored engines can put some serious strain on em. What compression 10:5.1, 11:1, 12:5.1, ect. Also you should run high oct. gas you probably alread knew that. But might as well state it. You bought the right quad.
