Are you happy with them? They are about 45 minutes away from me, I may try to stop by there.



Happy as heck with mine, is Yoda still making his front suspension kits?

If not you might consider going with Dave-Co's setup http://www.pilotodyssey.com/PO/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=10621

More of his stuff here http://www.pilotodyssey.com/PO/viewforum.php?f=60

That kit needs some refinement. It also does not take the abuse of hard trail riding. The extra travel is worth it, but don't expect it to be a perfectly engineered kit that will make it through years of east coast trail riding.

Someone been having a problem with his kit, what kinds of problems you seening? I been beating the basically same kit since 2003 the Yoda kit is a direct copy of the kit Redriders buddy made me http://www.pilotodyssey.com/LTfront1.htm I have not seen any problems I can complain about the arms appear to be stronger than OEM I still have my first kit seen in the link I provided it would have been installed on the wifes Pilot by now but I cant see spending 400 bux in shocks for something that currently never is used :-)

I am interested in Dave-Co's arms, but don't want to find old arms to hack the ball joint out of

I asked him if he could weld in a fitting for Stator's ball joints, but he said they do not have enough angle and needs the stock pilot or 400 joints

I can't find it off hand, but I thought the stator joints were +/- 25 (50)

It would seem any arm with a replaceable ball joint would be a much grater value, and could be fine tuned for camber

I haven't really followed up with him since

Any thoughts out there on this?

I have a set of pilot arms for sale. I was going to use them for the same thing but ended up going a different route for a front long travel.

Has anyone tried modifying 450ex arms to make them fit
