My right front tire sits more forward than my left one, it comes really close to hiting my bumper. How do I adjust??
If my frame were bent would my wheel sit back? My left wheel is where it is supposed to be, but my right sits forward.your frame is bent.
you need a new frame
there is a slight bend in the frame
at this location but you should be able to tell if it is bent
unless the a-arm is bent but i doubt it
frame time

There is a slight pinch in the frame... is there anyway I can fix this without a new frame?look at the shock that sits in between the a-arm is it centered?
or is it closer to 1 side?

3/4 of the A arms were replaced by the previous owner. I’ve only had it for around 3 weeks.or someone put the wrong side a-arms on there if that is even possible.
i know there is a right side and a left side and they have to be on
where they belong someone could have bought the wrong side and installed it?
i can't tell everything from your pics plus there is snow on the a-arm
look at a pic of a normal frame at that location then look at yours
but to answer your question you cannot adjust the tire moving forward or backwards
either the frame is bent or someone put a left side a-arm on the right side of the frame?????
if that is even possible.
i know i mixed up two different side a-arms 1 time and it would not work
having the tires equal to each other and that upper a-arm on right side looks like it has been replaced
or someone ran out of spray paint
stand the quad on it azz end like in my pic just for ha ha's
Is it possible for me to bend it back?it is your call bud either it is bent frame
or a-arm but looks bent to me
make sure you buy the right year frame so your brakes fit on it
if you go that route
I bought mine off craigslist for 100 bucks

Would it be safe enough for basic riding/ jumping? I don’t race/ ride super hard. I just don’t have the money for a new frame at the momentCan be bent back but is never going to be perfect and not as safe. Get another frame and install the gusset for down in that area before building the bike.

They replaced them with used A arms off eBay (I can tell because they were relabeled “2000 Yamaha blaster”) and i did find a bend in the frame.don't rule out that someone could have put a STOCK left side a-arm on the right side
it will have the same effect.
you said someone had replaced them?
i cannot tell by your pics.
You could tell by looking straight down on them or standing up the quad
the angels should be the same on lower a-arms.
I KNOW they look the same but if you put a left side a-arm on the right side you will
soon find out they are not the same i know because i did it
If I do decide to replace my frame (i will only do it if I can’t unbend my current one) I will just buy a rolling chassis, there is one locally for $400. I will just drop the motor in and call it a daymake sure you label every bolt that you take out and place in a ziploc bag.
a simple piece of paper and ziplock bags will do the trick.
it is not as hard as it looks.
not everything has to be taken apart the rear end just upper shock bolt swingarm bolt and break line/chain then the whole thing is off
probably the most difficult part is taking the swingarm bolt out.
the one that attaches the engine to the frame swingarm
need a big hammer and punch or anything you can find.
everything else is cake time consuming but easy.
i replaced a entire frame labeled all part's in baggies in like 3-4 days that i had free time.
but i also painted the new frame as well had to let it dry ect
the lower ball joint nut broke off the a-arm then the a-arm fell and dug into the ground bending my frame
luckily i was only in 2 gear and it hurt my wrist
if that lower ball joint/a-arm falls into the ground you are going to get HURT
especially if you are going fast
you might find a frame on here or craigslist anywhere from 100 to 175 bucks i would say is a fair price seeing how it is $1000 brand new
