Hi Shawn
Thanks for the reply, I understand about the being busy. Between my job and finishing up some asphalt modifieds and Latemodels I've been working on, it hard to find time. Anyway i'm up north by the bridge, i'm down that way a lot, We have quite a few MI members on the site and we all have a couple big rides at SL in the summer. The guys are looking for extended swingers, 2+1 a-arms, steering stems and a few other things. There are some years that have different style A's and swingers, but I want to start with the most common. I'm going to send you a swinger that fits 87-90 lt250r, I'm looking for a +2 over stock ladder bar style, not sure what carrier yet, most suzuki's use square style and I want round. Second I will be sending a set of 87-92 Lt250r A-arms, I'm looking for a 2+1 setup, also we want to swap the upper ball joint to a threaded TRX250R style, The quadracers are built with positive camber in the front which is no good, we like to adjust the upper so we can have about 2 degrees negative camber. These are going on my hybrid, 250 with a zilla motor. It's a common and easy swap. When I tear my zilla down i'll send those parts to with descriptions. There is a lot of interest about these parts on the site, so you may be getting some calls and emails. One members already wants a 87-90+4swinger before memorial day, you may get flooded with orders if our proto's turn out nice. Also do you have a local source for powder coating and chrome plating? Thanks for the help and interest Shawn. Garrett



From Shawn @ Proformance.


Hey Garrett I just got back from the psda race in la and trying to get caught up with everything. Yes i do have a great powder coater and chromer. For a regular color (black,red, blue) its $50 to powder coat a swing arm or A-arms the candy or fancier colors vary on what they are. Chrome also varies on what kind of swing arm it is usually in the $200 range though. i use all 4130 chromoly tubing on my swing arms. the ladder bar & arched are built out of 7/8 .058 tubing and the drag style arms are built from 1 3/8 .083 tubing. If people want additional bracing or gussets i will also do that for small up charge $10-$20 depending on what they want.
I appreciate you sending me your stuff to make the fixtures off of. when do you think you will be able to send that stuff out. I did have one guy contact me already about doing a arm.
Looking forward to working on this it sounds like there are a lot of people interested in this stuff.
 
If you want you can give me a call at the shop.
 
Thanks
Shawn
