Looks like you need to toe in your front end...

Other than that she is a beaut! Congrats!

Looks like a lot of extras too. Deduct that from the price you paid and that is how much you really spent... Then...

According to Kelley Blue Book an 03' in your condition goes for $3,220...

I would say good deals on your part, tweak that front end though!

You did great! But like charlie211 said set the toe on the front end. Nice looking quad!

Also, the front rims need flipped back around. It will handle VERY poorly like it stands. You have more than enough width needed from the aftermarket a-arms. For the price it sounds like you did good.

looks REALLY good. but yea you need to adjust the toe and flip the rims on the right way.

It's the rims, I think everyone thought they were flipped (that would actually put the stems INSIDE). So looks like the PO put some funky rims on. Get some cheap stockers or order some new fronts.

i will trade you my stockers for those rims, but you need an axle because that is wide as h*ll in the front and stock like mine lol but mines not that wide, and was that on ebay i think i saw it

Posted by: Ebrown

yes it was on ebay.
the rims are made by ITP

fasterz69 it has a lonestar +3 rear axel are you saying i need go wider?

Posted by: fasterz69

well it just looks weird with the front end so much wider than the rear so if you got stock type wheels or 4 on 1 offset wheels then it would probably be even with the rear. yea i didnt notice the lonestar lol

Posted by: Ebrown

yea it does look a lil weird im gonna have to fix that....

---- I did get my graffix kit in and on today though -----
