chronicsmoke Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Pretty sure those are just LT Houser arms with LT shocks.. maybe elka? Maybe you're seeing something I'm not? I have the old gen. Houser arms (not silicast) and they seem to be the same? :leghump: [ATTACH]611.vB[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]612.vB[/ATTACH] Quote CRASHTEST RACING IMMORTAL ATV http://www.offtopic.forum/data/MetaMirrorCache/7cbc5acb2a1ab76eac286e7fe5b4520d.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chronicsmoke Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Ahhh I see said the blind man to the deaf boy.. i just assummed it was the top of an Elka shock because of the colour.. Are you sure those are ST shocks with a spacer?

chronicsmoke Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 they don't seem to be round in the last pic, I see what you're saying now..

Loud450man Posted July 28, 2012 Author Share Posted July 28, 2012 i found out these were raptor shocks. (not stock) but idk what he did with the adapter deffinitly worth looking into imo Quote 450r mx quad ...sb, st, flux capacitor :headbang: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airmobile101 Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 He pretty much did what I had to do to my son's Kawasaki KFX 50 mini. I made adapter plates so I could take out the negative camber on stock a-arms with aftermarket shocks. He moreless made mounts to adapt the Raptor shocks on there. Don't know if I would do that if he is doing jumps.
