Smile got some new parts

A few hours of unwanted overtime came about so I bought Sik 50s fork springs and 50cc Racing bushings. Took about 2.5hrs of dinking around. I can't tell that the bushings are in and the springs are barely stiffer. I have an Applied Racing rear spring if your wondering.

Yo I got BBR front springs and applied rear spring. I saw in the bottom picture your forks are twisted a little like mine were when I installed my BBRs. Whats up with that I tried screwing the springs onto those pearches more but they wheren't goin anymore. So I get my **** back together and whenever I clamped the front brake the fork leg would click back and forth so my brother was riding it the other day some **** happened but everything fell apart broke brake cable and hub I think I didnt even look at it really but what gives I obviously ****ed up on the install but where did I go wrong cause u did the same **** as me. Becarefull riding that ****in thing with forks twisted like that

dont matter if the legs are twisted. when u put the axle bolt in it straightens it out anyhow. the key is to have good tight bushings. i think yer problem is that u didnt have your c-clips in all the way so the entire assembly popped out. gotta watch that ****. take your time, thats all.

That pic was taken when the triple clamp bolts were loose. The axle straightened them right up.
