View attachment 42553 View attachment 42554 Just found this bent steering arm when I was cleaning. How hard is it to replace myself? @joeymt33
Super easy. Buy a few so you have back up and call me.

Cool I'll give it a try in the next day or so.Not bad. I've done mine already once. Cheap from Honda too. I think they are around $35.

after riding with him several times, I'm just impressed that old Puddle Humper made it out alive at the end!lolI'm sure @CumminsPusher will want to edit this later for things I left out....
I'm writing this up because one of the carnage items for him was his iPhone. That's sucks because it had a lot of good pics and vids.
Anyway, he had a decent list of carnage. Man does he ride HARD!

I didn't get pics of the multiple bent tie rods or the three bent A-arms. I'm sure someone did though.
Damn that was a good time!

My advice would be to adjust it a little and buy a new one and keep riding until it gets worse. Lol. I'm a procrastinator.

We tried that with @Eltobgi but they bend so much easier after the initial bend. His bend enough to break it and then the tire turned completely sideways and broke the axle. A $20 part failure ended up breaking a $200 axle!

Fair enough. I bent mine back straight and it kept bending the rest of the weekend. I was able to ride the whole weekend though.

Gusto must be John boy. @PioneerPete rides with him all the time, he was at the takeover. LolI heard him say that, but I could never see a passenger in his vehicle. I tried all weekend to figure out to gusto is.
