Author Topic: Quadzilla A Arm update. (Read 1448 times)

I need some +2 A arms for my Quadzilla Project. And , here is the kicker. the ball joints on the new A arms need to fit LTZ 400 Spindles/knuckles. I have the steering knuckles/spindles. LTZ 400 hubs w/ rotors. the update is to run the twin piston caliper from the YFZ 450. so I also have the complete twin piston brake set up from the YFZ 450 and with master cyl and lever. i'm also gonna run Elka stage 3 shocks at stock length. ( this way I will have better brakes and be able to run Suzuki/Honda bolt and switch off wheels from my other quad.) Other benefits is that it should be lighter and better to find parts.

I'd like to do this as well. What did you guys have to do about tie rods? I'd like to just go with stock width a-arms so would I just be able to use the Zilla tie rods?

i believe metal tech makes the tie rods too. They'll have to be longer.

Yeah I wasn't sure how much further or closer the Z400 spindle would place the tie rod end compared to the zilla. What have you guys used for brake components? Braided lines? From what model? What master cylinder and hose are you running? And are you using the stock Zilla hard brake lines?

I actually am going through Fireball racing, Larry there is making mine. there gonna be +2. but I did see another post b4, that said something about using stock ball joints," Use upper ball joints, upper and lower."
