Well the power/traction mods I wanted to do to my ex are complete. She is fast enough for me to enjoy at the moment so the next step is suspension but I don't really know where to go so I have questions.
First odd, what does +1+2 mean when it comes to A arms? I know I want to go wider on both the front and the rear but I am lost when it comes to sizing. I have also read that I can't use stock shocks with aftermarket arms becuase the increased leverage will cause premature death to the shocks.
What I am looking for is an inexpensive (I know that inexpensive is a relative term) front end to put on it. I have read about ASR, fullflight, and all the other brands that are on the lower end of the spectrum as far as pricing and they are in the range I am looking at, just wondering about durability. I don't ride MX as my knees can't take the beating anymore so I do a lot of woods/OHV park riding. I ride at a fast pace but not a lot of air anymore because I just can't take it.
Also, what shocks would be a good deal to go with, 450r's or do I need to go aftermarket? Thanks.
