MX Build Pics- Metal Tech/ Axis

[maxamillion]

This quad started as a rec/trail rider and is slowly turning into a full on MXer. Im running triple rate Axis up front with custom Metal Tech +3+0 std. a-arms built by Tyler. The welds are insane and just beefy arms (4130 chromoly) all around. The tie rods are stainless steel and like 3 times the diameter of stock. They use F-250 tie rod ends for ball joints. Caster preset at 7 degrees. In the rear Im running an Axis dual rate comp adj.

Ill post some before and after shots.

What about the rest of your 400ex's?? Any pics?

[maxamillion]

The maiers on the back are the old dull style but they are so much thicker than stock and they hold up alot better. I got them for $60 new so I couldnt pass it up.

[maxamillion]

Looks good, looks like she just needs an axle.

Instead of wasting money on a alxe right now, go and buy 2 rear wheel spaces that are about 3 inch or 4 inch wide each. Mine is 3" or 4" and it works so good.

No, don't do this ^^^ An axle would not be a waste of money. Buying wheel spacers and then buying an axle later would be a waste of money. Axles are not very expensive and would do wonders for balancing out his quad.

thanks for the comments, Yeah an axle is deffinately next on the list it handled 10 times better than stock tho even w/ out it. Just made the rear end slide a little easier. Im surprised no ones said anything about the PEP shock covers w/ axis shocks :D

The PEP shock covers are a disgrace......there, I said it :blah: :p

Nice quad though, very unique looking. Once you get an axle on that you'll be golden.

What kind of rezzie clamps are them? j/w cuz I don't like the hose clamp thingy.
