LIFE MEMBER ONLY ONCE!!!
was thinking to go back to all stock idlers and rear wheels then.Then I can sell the oversize idlers 5.35"(6 pcs),rear 7.5"(4 pcs) wheels with all modified spacers as a package later.
tried this and it won't work..wheels are 1/2" out from lining up.stein700sx said:Remove the rear axle and wheels then get the front bolts and rear bolts in. Then put the rear axle and wheels back in. Loosen off the transfer rods and the middle bolts should slip right in
so I can use the rail mounted brackets then and add an idler on each side.You know where my rail ext bolted up with 4 bolts.In between them I had 2 extra holes.That is where I would mount the bracket.Is it also a good idea to put a cross piece(shaft between the rails to give them strength.I have actually one cross rail that one can install 2 idlers also.I would have to cut each end down a little to fit between the new rail ext and bolt thru the side.I could actually run 4 wheels at that area,2 out and 2 inner..just an extra 4 to 5 lb weight...super1c said:Also don't forget about mounting some idlers at the old rear axle location, will help with turning on trail and save your hyfax. Without them you will chew through hyfax at the bend. All Yamaha's xtx's with tip ups are set up that way.

I am just pounding back a few Crown Royals already..good stuff..
super1c said:BTV told me the two inner wheels would be overkill so I just stuck with the outers. I did think about that shaft too but never got around to it. I think it would add strength and keep the skid from twisting. I added my boggie mounts using the very bottom hole in the middle where the hyfax part is and the hole above it. Aligns up perfect, just have to dril out to fit stock boggie mounting bolts.
hey blue..that is kinda a neat idea to use a copper pipe and to chaise it,never got to do it,read your post later..but does sound slick.And I really think them Crown Royal shots helped...lolbluewho said:Ya your welcome/
