More pressure means less slip.
and harder clutch pull   ;)

my quad racer has 70whp and runs a tusk clutch kit and springs. they surprisingly work well especially for the price.
how much did you get the banshee hubs for?

My bike had a tusk clutch when I first got it. I cant tell difference in pull of the 85 85 springs then the other springs.

I got them for $45 from a buddy who was parting his shee out. I ended up getting the tusk ones for $80 so hopefully it will help out the width issue, and Ill still be able to run the 4x115 pattern.

I run Jerry's 9 plate Kevlar Barnett clutch with 85-86 250 springs and a pro taper profile clutch perch and lever. My clutch pull is lighter then my dad's stock kfx400 clutch pull and Jerry has tested his 9 plate setup to hold over 70lbft of torque without slipping. This is all in a 500 btw don't try putting 9 plates in a two fiddy or you'll shoot your eye out kid!

Just a quick little update, my extended tusk hubs are almost here  ;D when they do get here, I'll post up measurements and pics of the bike with the banshee rears then with the banshee tusk hubs. also just got a set of holeshots on steel rims for the back of it so Im pretty excited to see how those are going to look with the extended hubs.

 :)) new ones are overrated. Everything should be held together with duct tape and JB weld.

Just kidding.

Yea but new ones.

I had no idea about the different spring rate! so that means when I start putting my 90 LT motor back together I shoul put the springs from my 86 motor instead of the 90 ones?

Post by: LT250RWV on January 17, 2014, 07:39:04 pm
Not in quadracer their not ebc is good for around 45 hp so tusk would be less Kevlar barnett is good for 65+ might be more cant reall remember their was thread on this. I have a used ebc clutch thats in great shape I would sell you for cheap. Biggest thing is springs. If you have a 87 to 92 250. You want to use 85 86 250 springs they hold more pressure then 87 to 92 spring . More pressure means less slip.

Good to know that Tusk is a good name. How are they for clutches?
I just ordered a heavy duty clutch for my banshee, i will let you know.  I know some guys on the banshee forum are running them up to 75 hp with no problems.  Apparently the best bang for your buck with clutches.

So that's why barnett is the most expensive on ebay!

Ahh yes the reviews.... So just for everyones knowledge, I checked out rocky mountain ATV and all 10 of the reviews were 5 starts (highest) seemed that some of them came with factory defects, but for the most part tusk warantied them, also there was a review from a MXer and he said that they were very durable. but the only thing he would recommend is re torquing them down after you ride a bit.

I will more then likely be getting a set here in the not so distant future.

Do you think those tusk hubs would be durable enough being aluminum and all?

Those look sick. I was also thinking about these ^ but I dont know how strong they would be and their a little pricey. after i get my motor back ill have to pick up a set of those are they still the 4x115 lug pattern?

If you want some width, get these hubs, they will add like 1.5-1.75" back
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Yamaha-Yfz450r-Yfz450x-Rear-Hubs-Back-Wheels-/151207846837?pt=Motors_ATV_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2334b0a3b5&vxp=mtr

It is a yfz450r/x rear hub and only certain years had them. Make sure they look like this
i went from a 46.75" rear end to a just under 48.5"

Post by: Dutch_Rutter on January 15, 2014, 01:05:39 pm
I was thinking that too, but wouldn't that 1/4 inch without threads under the hub be a problem? I was also thinking that spacers on the top of the splines would dull them out eventually. Either way I'm stocked to have some cheaper wheel options  ;D

Its not the rims that narrow it, its that the banshee hubs are not as deep as the stock ones. The rims kinda off set the problem. Before I was running stock hubs and rims.

Post by: ZillaFreak on January 15, 2014, 12:57:54 pm
those rims narrow your rear end? How offset did you have before? those are some deep dishes on it.
Title: Re: Question about switching to banshee rear hubs.
Post by: Iceracer on January 15, 2014, 12:50:15 pm
Put the spacers on before the hub and you get the width back.
Title: Re: Question about switching to banshee rear hubs.
Post by: Dutch_Rutter on January 15, 2014, 12:40:27 pm
Then here's pics of the tires on. They fit pretty solid. Nothing seems to be loose.they do narrow the rear end just slightly though.
Title: Re: Question about switching to banshee rear hubs.
Post by: Dutch_Rutter on January 15, 2014, 12:38:34 pm
Ok so heres some pics first one is no washers second one is with three the one has to be slightly bigger in diameter to fit over the beginning of the axle splines.

If banshee hubs work, so will yfz hubs

Warrior 350 rear hubs also work for this to. But need spacers

NAPA usually has them as well if you don't have a TSC close by.

Post by: GrkGuy on January 15, 2014, 09:58:48 am
yep all the way on the back wall in tractor supply, look for the hitch pins for 3 point tractor attachments.
and you will see some spacers, some big some small but they will have them, you can even look for finish mower
spacers for the wheel height.

Agreed, post pix!
Title: Re: Question about switching to banshee rear hubs.
Post by: Iceracer on January 15, 2014, 06:15:19 am
If you measure it up and go to tractor supply of hey have a bushing back with the 3 pt hitch pins a d things that work good for spacers. A little bulky but solid. You can also order a piece of 4130 tube in a heave wall. And cut it to length. It ends up being the same as a durablue or old JP axle spacer arrangement.

Will do tonight once I get home from work and get everythign together :)) I was pretty suprised to find a set that cheap, normally I cant find a decent used set under $180.00 kinda to be expected though with their new prices being upwards of $300 for a pair of just the rear tires.

ok, thanks for the quick reply. I also managed to nab a set of lightly used 8 paddle haulers on banshee aluminum rims for $50.00 that are going to look nasty on the lil 250.

Should be fine if you can get the cotter pin in.
Title: Question about switching to banshee rear hubs.
Post by: Dutch_Rutter on January 14, 2014, 02:39:23 pm
I picked up a pair of banshee rear hubs 4x115 24 spline for my stock 86 axle. They fit on just fine except, they do not seem to be as wide as the stock hubs, not normally a problem but they arent long enough for the hub nut to tighten against them. Luckily enough I have large enough washers to put in between the nut and the hub to make it a tight fit.

My question is if this is a normal thing? also is it safe to be putting washer spacers in between these two parts like that?
