The new 3.0 arm is changed from the 2.0 in the way the droop screws work and are narrowed up on the back side to maximize steering throw and wheel clearance.
Notice the difference in the 2.0 arm when layed over the 3.0 arm
Add the shocktower and hingepin mounts. The kit calls for number 1 plastic inserts up in the front and number one inserts down in the rear. This is for max kick up. For a smoother flat track you might want to use the zeros that come in the extras portion of the kit.
All thats left for the front clip is the sway bar and turnbuckles.
My turnbuckle tricks should help the stress on your hands. I first pop the balls into each of the rod ends. Remember to pop them into the shiney side of the rod end first. (check back to the first few steps for the shiney step)
I always run my turnbuckles with the left handed thread to the inside. Which ever you decide just be cognizant of the mark on the turnbuckles so they all face the same way.
After the rod ends are prepared start the first one onto the turnbuckle a few threads and then use a 5/64 wrench to speed up the process.
Notice the extra adjustments on the tower. Gone are the 2 holes and pesky half moon adjustment inserts on the caster block which is now one single mounting hole. Also the 4mm turnbuckles and rod ends are replaced by the beefy 5mm that the 1.0 first came with.
Front clip and bag B complete
