Tweeds spindels are $500.00 and the arms are $340.00. plus shipping. The beam is probably $200.00. Does the rack come with it?

[quote="Quickfix"]I found a guy selling this near by but I don't know if it's worth the $800.

10" over king pin front beam (new) w/Tweed drop spindles (new) also Tweed 2 1/4" front trailing arms (new)-$800




10" over beam with 2 1/4 arms is gonna be pretty wide in the woods. i run 6" over beam with 2 1/4 arms, its great for strattling ruts and makes my ride more stable, but there are a few trees in wellsville that have my mark on them. (by the way anybody have a good source for a new beam)

I think I will shorten it down to a six inch may be five I'll have to see were I stand and make sure it's a ten inch.
He has a stock beam with adjusters for sale. I'll post a link in the for sale buggy parts.

Looks like you got a hell of a deal! It costs me the same for the spindles and the arms, but I am running 6" wider beams though. The rack looks like a Saco from the pics, they run around $250-$320 for a set, so you did good. 8)
