If you ever ride any trails, you'll be taking that kit off in a hurry.

 

[06blasterboy06]

it said it was for trail and flat traCK

 

[sicivicdude]

flat track yes because you want to trade height for width. The lowering kit puts the a-arms straight flat out. It gives up 4-5" of ground clearance so for trails, it's gonna have you dragging over everything you come across.

well ill be droping it 3" and i do play in a sand pit a lot not realy ......? do u think its good for that

 

[hotrodaj_2]

You'll need to stay on a flat surface. Sand should be fine if smooth. If you can stay on a flat surface, lowering is the way to go imo.

ya man most flat track racers put a lowering kit on to lower the center of gravit but you will def bu draging in the trails

if you plan on the front wheels leaving the ground, dont use the lowering kit.

the cfm brand front lowering blocks are guaranteed for jumping, says they've never had a set returned in over 10 years

[Awk08]

i believe the cfm blocks are only available on their website ????

 

[06blasterboy06]

what do u think ishould do?

 

[sicivicdude]

You can ride them and see how you like it. If you scrape over top of all kinds of things, simply un-bolt them. Luckily they are not a permanent modifcation and the only damage they can cause is to your spine from banging into rocks and logs and a few anthills...

a man u have no pics of ur blaster on myspace i was lookin for them

 

[sicivicdude]

I haven't updated any of my myspace photos in a long time.

I think I have my prairie, bayou, CRX, and R/C stuff on there but there might not be any of the blaster. I might get to it one of these days. I have a bunch of pictures of it on photobucket but I only post them when there is a question that a picture can explain better than words.

Edit: I do too have a few pictures of it on there. When I put the paddles on it, I took some pics and put them up. Look in the folder named "the blaster" <---good hiding place...

ok i got u do u have a custom ai box on urs

 

[sicivicdude]

Yes, I made it myself after I got my OKO carb. I didn't feel like messing around with the factory airfilter setup trying to fit it to my carb so I just made my own airbox altogether.
