got a basket case 87 that I am getting close to haveing back together. came with a slightly used FMF gnarly pipe and silencer. trying to put it on, but it just wont fit..
questions:
the flange that bolts to the cylinder seems to stuck to the headpipe. Is that normal for FMF? it rotates freely, but will not budge any when trying to pull it out.
So I installed the headpipe/flange assembly. as I rotate it around to line up with the spring location, the end of the head pipe moves up and down and is hitting the frame and keeping the head pipe from being able to rotate around. no clue whats going on with this
Lastly, the main pipe does not seem able to slide between the frame rails, the stinger is hitting the shock, and the other end is hitting the headpipe. it just will not line up to connect to the head pipe no matter what I do. I have no clue what the problem is, any ideas?
