Front Bushings

[iwant1]

Just looking for some honest answers here, all the steering bushings are NFG, the upper A arm bushings GONE. ball joints upper and lower all have play. I had all these replaced around 9k kms. I now have just short of 12k when a piece of the track delaminated and flew off at 120kmh. I am an aggressive trail rider so not to say these parts shouldn't wear but what gives?

I want a solid replacement bushing not OEM junk. Whats out there

Get the bushings from Ulmer.

Do they have them all? spindle bushing for ski bolt, upper a arms, might as well do lowers too and steering pivots

 

[yamahas]

Upper and lower A arm - Ulmer
Steering pivots, ski - UpBusman if he still makes them?

Balljoints I have yet to see anything that was any better then stock.

well I hope up busman is still at it, I pm'd him already but no response yet. my whole front end is loose

UpBushman also has the ski spindle bushings too. Also check out this thread for better dog bone and pivot joints:

You're not the first one to say he's been hard to get a hold of but he is a sledder so he's probably out there.

Can you say "monopoly"?

Up Bushman is still selling these. I just heard from him today.
