Nobody! I think this is the first time I may have stumped you guys.
What do you need to know bud?
I just want to know more about them. What kind of benefits they bring to the table, will you be limited to the types of riding, I.e.can I trail ride with them or would they break? I basically know nothing about running sway bars on quads. School me guys.
Basically used for flat tracking. Conect the right and left side fornt suspension together. No good for MX or trail
Kreidy has it covered.
Sway bars reduce body roll. Only used in flat track type racing.
Cough Cough, almost spilled my coffee when i seen the price. I wonder how much my old "RANDS" brand bar is worth from the early 90's?
I payed $110 a year ago for my rands. looked forever for one that would fit my zilla
I wanna say that was about what they were new.
All the old stuff is starting to come back value wise.
What kind of mods have to be performed to install them? I.e. Welding, cutting?
A good sway bar, clamps to upper a-arm mount, or frame just above that point and only requires a couple longer bolts or some clamps. On a Dedicated Race Bike we usally end up welding a set of tabs on the a-arms to bolt to.
Rath racing makes a really nice sway bar and a set of machined clamps to eliminate any welding.
If you look at pictures of mine or Tim's quad of the month you can see the two different ways to mount them. He has a rand's I build mine my self, except for the one on the my 250 Im building now. That's a Rath, I got it to see if they were noticeably any better for the extra money they cost. I wont get another, they are nice because you can disassemble them mine are all welded and not rebuildable.
I wouldn't run one for trail use you will notice a much rougher ride than normal and you will also have less control. If all you going to do is run on seasonal roads it might be useful. but as a general rule anything rougher than that It wont help and you break links and bolts constantly.
anyone have a set of the rods that go from sway bar to shock bolt
go online or call JC specialty in PA they have the tubes and end links.
