If i have time i will weigh mine Chris. But mine will be elka stage 3 shocks
-
has anyone weighed the front end? spindles, arms and shocks please..
-
looks real nice
-
Yea no problem. I'm trying to get it to 48" or under.... once I get these tires mounted up I'll take a measurement and post back....
My front end was one of the origional ones made with z spindles. Not sure if they changed much mine are +3 -1 with 10x4 2 " offset wheels and my front end is same width as a stock zilla with 10x5 wheels

Any chance you could post up some pics of how it sits on the trx shocks?

Hey tony can you let me know what it ends up being for overall width. I have a metal tech z400 set up sitting in a box on the shelf brand new never installed cause i has3.nt had time to put it on the bike yet and i don't want to go super wide either
-
I thought it was little less... at least thats what I remember.... I am just over 48.5 wide in the front right now w. ITP baja 4:1's.... I have some OMF 4:1's arriving tomorrow that I heard are more of a TRUE 4+1 than the ITP's.... I also just got some hi-per 4+1 fronts which are supposed to be a TRUE 4+1 that I can take a measurement w/ once I get them mounted up
-
think the z400 spindles widen the front by 3" i think.
-
On the Zilla the upper shock eye width is the same as the bottom eye width iirc. I put trx450r 16.5" eye to eye on my Zilla w/ metal tech a arms & z400 spindles. Had to fab (4) .24" spacers for the upper shock mount.

I got the metal tech front end and offered it up last night to do some measurements
It binds at 17 inches (eye to eye shock length)
I was advised to run the honda trx400ex shocks which are 16.25 which will be perfect length when I did the mock up
Was going to use some fox floats but before I order them what is the shock eye width?
Do they need to be modified
Help needed before I order them

Ok...so either spindle (03-04, or 05+) will work the same correct? Just want to be sure....thx Dez!
-
No I don't think it matters. I needed to know for wheel brg replacement ...
-
Can someone tell me if the year matters for Z400 spindles/hubs for the metal tech a-arms? were they made for the 03-04 z400's, or the 05+... or does is not matter either way...
Thanks!
