do a Store search for GDH Racing he carries alot of Honda parts for our quads

 

[tarheelblues]

looks like he has mostly stock oem parts..does that mean you recommend the stock carrier over the double wide (?)bearing carriers i see in the aftermarket world

 

[TRX2fiveO]

Yours has been sitting for quite a few years if Im correct? what's the matter with your carrier? have you tried tighteneing up the axle nuts on the brake rotor side that will tighten up the rear-end if the bearing are not shot.

I would go back with a stocker atleast you know what fits then.

 

[tarheelblues]

the carrier was shot when it got parked,,a big chunk broke off one day adjusting the chain,,i kept riding it and i guess some dirt got in and ate it up

 

[TRX2fiveO]

ooooo. that's a good reason to change it then...lol

I got a 350x carrier from ebay for $90 and it's working great with my plus 7.5 inch axle.

East Coast ATV makes good products. Not the best, best I would not hesitate to run it.

 

[Billy250X]

Looks like a good carrier to me.I'd get it while I could.

 

[tarheelblues]

thanks for the input guys,,i appreciate it

 

[Billy250X]

No prob man.Hope you get your quad goin soon.

 

[tarheelblues]

well my funds caused me to wait a while before i could order my carrier but it worked out well,,east coast reloaded their carriers back on ebay and ran a 10%off deal,,so i got my new carrier for 103.50 with free shipping,,it was 115 last month..im stoked,, im gonna ride a wheelie til i run out of gas in a week or so

 

[mud99]

LOL You must have a long drive way.

 

[shadetree]

[tarheelblues]

its just really low in gas its been 5 years of walking past it in my carport with 4 flat tires covered in dust and crap,,,dead battery,blown rear,etc,etc,,,im excited to get it going again,,you know the song,"dont know whatcha got til its gone",,man i love big hair rock,lol...but yeah ,,i kinda have that feeling i had when i was 18 back in 98 buying it new

lol ,i just re-read my above post,,maybe i left out a comma or so?? kinda sounds like im gonna ride a wheelie for a week straight lolol

 

[Billy250X]

It's alright man.I would be excited to.My quad was down for 8 months with a blown rear and I couldn't wait to have it done.

hey guys im putting her back together but i had to drill out a bolt that broke during dissasembly,its the #16 in the link,,says its a stopper? is it there just to stop the carrier from sliding out if the clips break??

 

[Billy250X]

Does it thread into the swingarm below the carrier hold bolts.

 

[tarheelblues]
