i like tthe slc ladder bar myself.......looks pimp!!!
sold the raptor....full on 05 yfz in progress...

stock parts: fuel tank, swingarm and rear shock

SUB454

The strongest(and heaviest) swingarm I've run was a EYEBALL ENGINEERING +4. That thing was heavy duty. But, since all I do is race the hill now....I went to a +10 from Klein Racing. It only weighs 9lbs 10oz.

I have there A-arms and will say that they are pretty stout! I think I will be staying stock length for now.

When I was at Sandfest there were extended stock swingers in the Crazy Deals out of Coos Bay tent on Vendor Row in +2'' +3'' and +4''   They were plated/braced, powdercoated black and looked hell for stout....they may even hold up to Preddys abuse  ;)  and they were reasonably priced  :thumbs:

if you want to see how strong something is.....let preddy play with it.  He was one of those kids with all the broken toys when he was growing up.

After seeing the pics of his broken swingers.....the saying he could tear up an Anvil comes to mind  ;) :lol:

I acutally was, but now I am the guy you take your quad to to get it fixed. :rofl: :rofl: I like having the extended swingarm, but I like having a good turning radius better. I could'nt give two shits about stright line fast, I like the woods and MX course too much. At the local track there is a turn that is sharper than the raptor can handle. I have to whip it sideways like crazy just to make the corner. My predator would take it no problem.

I have heard nothing good about Joker Racing or their customer service...take that for what it's worth.


Your absolutely right.  I placed an order a month ago, and still have not received.  They won't even return my phone calls or email.  Sorry ass co :mad: suckers.  :...:
