Width

[Architects]

I'm going to be ordering some a-arms and axle soon and trying to figure out what offset rims I need to run. I want to be at 50 inches. I'm looking at JD + 2's and a lonestar +3 axle.

Also I heard you want you rear end to be a tad narrower in the back than the front for handling purposes? All help appreciated

if you get +2's you can use your stock front rims or 3-2 offset aftermarket ones

I have 3-2 rims now. Im trying to figure out what offset I need to be at for 50 inches.

Ask JD. They build the a-arms, they'ed know.

Yes I tried calling JD today. No answer. He's probably busy welding! Can anyone else help me?

stock is about 46 inches and if you add +2 you get around 50 inches with stock rims.
with after market 4-1 you will be around 48 inches.

but i never tried it my self so i may be off a little.

im still kinda new to all this so can u guys exlpain what you are talking about with the whole +2 and 3-2,4-1 means and all that and with the 50 in and all, sorry to sound like a noob but i would like to learn what all its means, thanx

like u hear 3-2 and 4-1 one and stuff ..the first number is how many inches of the whell is on the insid eand the secound # is how many is on the outside ... liek a 3-2 is stock ..... flip your rims and u have like a 2-3 ...u get it? and 50 inches is how wide the whole quad is...liek across the front in this case

[Dragnut06]

sorta, i understand the what the numbers mean but when u say flip the rims u mean "flip" it around but still keep it on the same side right? or take the right side and put on the left side? cuz that would seem to be the same distance

you dont have to worry about the axle being over 50 inches because its adjustable all the way from +1 to +3. and ive heard the same thing about the axle being narrower but i wouldn't know why

[Architects]

I didn't know that about offset. Thanks for explaining that whoever did. Any other input?

I have +2 arms with the LSR Excalibur Axle and am at 48" front and rear with the stock rims!!!.A plus 4 axle and +3 arms i believe will put you at 50 with stock rims.From my experience with my current set up!!!

[playerz]

ive got +3 arms, stock offset rims 05 bike 4-1, and +4 axle, i beleive that will put me at 50" with holeshots

[Architects]

Hmm maybe I will have to look into +2.5's
