I just got 2 sets of them from leisure, and found out something; the 'spacers' that you need to get for them, is for the freggin bumper! lol, They're there so that when you get a wheelie, you don't just flip right over on your lid...So yeah most of you run wings and don't use bumpers, so you can just buy the arms! Woot! Most places have them in stock, not the whole kit though. But yeah you really can just get the arms!

to figure out why he started a thread like this.

I wanted to let people know that if they wanted the setbacks, but only the single sets of arms were available, that they could just buy the arms and still be able to run.

Mr. Tune · 02-16-2006, 09:02 PM

Ponch · 02-16-2006, 09:02 PM

what were you expecting?

Ponch · 02-16-2006, 09:09 PM

IDK, I thought the spacers were something important that was NEEDED to use the arms...Jeez....

Ponch · 02-16-2006, 09:09 PM

Came with 2 longer screws and 2 washer type things that go behind the bumper.

Michowski · 02-16-2006, 09:11 PM

pics are to blurry

FreeRideFrosty · 02-16-2006, 11:13 PM

Ryan the pics get across what they need to. If it doesn't affect you then why would you rip on someone who was trying to help others out?? Maybe LH said you needed spacers for something... he was just saying that you don't that they just set the bumper back so that if you get hit your bumper is still hit first and not your rear wheels...

Michowski · 02-16-2006, 11:22 PM

sry i cant read the label. Im just trying to figure out what this post means. Im very confused about this spacer.

FreeRideFrosty · 02-16-2006, 11:24 PM

They are to set the bumper further back so that if you were to get rear ended you would still get hit in the bumper as stock instead of the wheels that could cause damage to the arms or whatever. He was saying that they weren't necessary for the arms in case anyone was confused...

Michowski · 02-16-2006, 11:30 PM

o ok, well now that makes sense. Thank you so very much for that very informative and very helpfull post. Your reply will sure help a lot of people so you should be proud of yourself.

FreeRideFrosty · 02-16-2006, 11:33 PM

LoL... Thanks. And I was able to read that package... The one he bought has the spacers and everything with it. He wasnted to make sure that people didn't wait for the full kit like that because the spacers aren't even necessary to run the arms... All cleared up.
