Where can I reach Metal Tech about these a-arms? Would like to see about maybe getting a set made for the OEM spindles that are +1+1.

Dez doesn't ride he's a keyboard racer like all of us! Lol

It seems like it sometimes Derrick. Braaappppp!!!

The front end is wider than stock by 2" and with decent shocks I was able to keep up with the 'freight train' last time out. The 400 spindle conversion reduced bump steer so I set toe in at 3/8"

How much of a noticable difference is your bike now with these arms and longer travel?

Yeah I forgot to mention for z400 spindles, Tyler can set you up. Pretty sure he can jig for longer travel shocks.

Those look nice. They look to be set up for Z-400 hubs as well, correct? I'm looking for something similar to that but also to use longer shocks.

Tyler at metal tech can make you a set . I asked for a custom +1" wider and +1" forward for 16.5" shocks. He had them to my door in less than two weeks. They didn't come with pivot bearings, but those were easy to locate on feebay.

What are our options for aftermarket A-arms for the 1987 Zilla?
