  • In this video we remove the old steering stem bearing and bushings, then install a new set of pivot works bearings and bushings. We also install a plus 2 inch chromoly steering stem from Team Alba Racing on our 2007 Honda trx450r trx450er.

    you and I are a lot alike. everytime a part comes out, it gets cleaned, polished or repainted, along with properly torqued to factory specs when it get reinstalled. also working on my rarely used tool supply just because I like having the right tool when I need it. what paint did you use to paint the frame?

    • @garagemcmatt
      @garagemcmatt  Před rokem +1

      Thanks for the comment bro. The paint is this high heat aluminum cast paint from advanced it was like $20 a can

    How does the steering stem feel i heard people say they feel kinda sloppy and cheap and does the antivibe really work, was thinking of getting one for my raptor.

    • @garagemcmatt
      @garagemcmatt  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Can't always listen to what other people say. Most ones I've come across that people complain about are installed incorrectly or they bought cheap bushing kits. The antivibe gives a little cushion

      They have different part numbers but I think they are the same. Most of the front end stuff is interchangeable all the way from the 86 trx 250r to the 99-14 trx400ex and the 450r
