Whats up with these shocks?

[Loud450man]

This is not me just a pic from a local race. what is the deal with these front shocks? looks like lt arms and st shocks with somsort of adapter? thoughts? oh for the record this dude won his class

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:

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? I can't really make it out

[Loud450man]

[chronicsmoke]

they don't seem to be round in the last pic, I see what you're saying now..

 

I'm stumped:nutkick:

Definitely looks like he fabbed something....

i found out these were raptor shocks. (not stock) but idk what he did with the adapter deffinitly worth looking into imo

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.
