Do you have the tierod ends on the bottom of the steering stem? I have mistakenly done this in the past, and the front end was all out of whack. Other than that, it seems like you have the wrong size tierods.

No, for a 450r you put the tierod end on top of the steering stem plate and on the bottom of the spindle mount.

This is correct. I guess my post was a little confusing.

No. The tie-rod end that goes on the steering stem plate mounts on top of the steering stem plate and the tie-rod end mount on the spindle mounts on the bottom of the spindle. Does that make sense? If not I could get a pic for you.

I wouldnt know the length of them. But i will find out later today because a friend has some plus two's. By the sounds of it, I think you got some +3's and you need some +2's.

No problem, yeah, I ordered some tierods they other day but had a different problem. I got the box at my house and open it, and there were no tie-rods inside. So I called them back up and they told me to look on the side of the box if there were any holes so I looked and sure enough there was a hole big enough for two tierods to squeeze through. Got some new ones sent back to me though. Good luck.

The atvriders patron is when you donate some money to exriders.com and you become a supporting member and they give you the patron badge. Just donate some money to them and you will get it in like a few days. Makes your profile look cool too.:D
