Well, I was bored, and decided to throw my front end on one night before goin out. I can't wait for this to be done. Here's what we have to do before throwing it together:

-get my swingarm and beadlocks back from powdercoat
-re-rivet all the threads
-Quadracing43 will be guiding me with the process of torquing to spec, etc. next weekend haha, good to have friends who've done this before. I will appreciate it much Patrick.
-and last but not least, get the heart of the beast back in it.

Asking 550$ shipped with linkage, brand new still in package. Just rebuilt the shock one ride ago, 160-180 rider.

Idk about that. When you adjust the camber your ball joints are going to be turned to the side all the way. Im pretty sure they are upside down.

for sure dude. I've never had aftermarket susp until now, no more 100 footers and bottoming out haha. I can't wait, now that my quads all beefed up, I need to get the same way. Only sucks cause of school and work, I never had time to hit the gym, so i'll have 2 1/2 months to ride and train.
