Got started installing axles into the frame today. This is a great feeling to get started putting this machine together. Whipper has done a excellent joy with his machining work. All parts are spot on the money! Once i acquired all the bolts i needed i started installing axles and brake discs. I hope to finish the axles and install the motor plate tomorrow and get the trans installed so that sprockets can be set to permanent locations. Still waiting on chain so this will occur coming week.

Beautiful! I love the drilled rotors. Thanks for the updates.
Alright, Envy is one of the 7 right?
OK Lewis, we gonna race right? I think you should leave off two tires just to even the field a little.
And not the middle ones either!!

Are these springer kits available for Argos? Where do you get the kits? Thanks!
Hi Russ,Originally Posted by Russ344
Whipper, a member of this site, makes these kits. Right now they are available for 2nd and 3rd generation Attexes, the Max II and the Max IV. He told me he can make them for any machine if he had the body and frame long enough to adapt the tooling to the machine. In other words, he needs someone to drop off their Argo or whatever for a few months so that he could do all the math and stuff.
Well, that's what he told me about a year and a half ago. My kit was easy because he had already built the Spider for himself and my Attex had identical measurements.

Whipper designed and built this kit. It is for an Attex but....if he had a Argo frame and body it is possible he could build a kit for your machine the principles should be basically the same. There are many models of Argos with different frame designs, so that will come into play. He builds a kit for a Max 2 and 4 also. I can not speak for him but it never hurts to ask. You would have the FIRST ARGO with suspension. How cool would that be. Site name is Whipper. Check out the springer Thread and you can see how he developed this.
Channel Z on Vimeo Here is a springer video showing how well the suspension works. My favorite and love the tunes.
