    Question Banshee Widening

    Ok well I am gunna buy some new A-Arms and a New Axle for My Banshee. I was Thinking of getting the:

    Ricky Stator A-Arms +5/8 Inches Forward and 2 Inches Wider On Each Side
    Durablue Eliminator With an Extra 2 Inches on Each Side

    What are the Pros and Cons of Widing My Banshee 4 Inches?

    Would I have to Get Long Brake Lines?

    No the stock brake lines would be long enough if I`m not mistaken but I would recommend getting stainless +2 brake lines.

    Yeah from everything that I have heard is that getting a 2+ 1+ a-arms will greatly increase the controll and stabability of my banshee

    i have +2 lonestar a-arms with works shocks on my banshee and it made a huge difference it handles way better...in the back i have a durablue axle...im using the stock brake lines with them but if you have the money for longer lines they are way stronger and work better. the only downfall is trying to ride in the woods.

    O ic, I Just bought the I-Shock I-3500 A-Arm Kit. Its a +2" +1" Kit and it comes with +2" Stainless steel brakelines as well. I have a 1989 Banshee which has J-Arms so I have someone who is going to convert my J-Arm quad to an A-Arm quad. I Also just bought a Durrablue +2" Eliminator Axle. Which Durablue axle do you have? I don't think widening will be of any dis-advantige for me considering the fact that I do not have any woods to do woods riding in, and I have never done woods riding before.. Its all desert and mountains around here.. Heres some pictures of my ridin areas:
