Ive got my 88' blaster project together and running, and now im trying to figure out what I want to do with upgrading the rear suspension. I dont mind the stock length for trails, but it makes it kinda tricky on steep hill climbs. I think +4 would be a little to long and it might make it hard to slide around when I want it to and make tight turns in the trails?
I really want to go with a round house swingarm setup and hopefully run a yfz450 sprocket/brake setup for more ground clearance. I did some test fitting and I found that a yfz450 swingarm fits in the frame and will bolt up with a small bit of modding. id say then maybe I could play with adding a bracket to bolt up the yfz linkage and make me a new upper rear shock bracket to go with the longer yfz shock? it would be interesting if it works good.
