I need the front and rear arms with shafts to put my 84 back together. Please let me know what you've got and how much shipped to walnut ia 51577. Thanks!

LC,
I should be able to help you out. I will see what I have in the stash this weekend. Shipping will suck.

LC,

I have a nice front arm that correct for the 84 Sport, plus an NOS short aluminum shaft. Matt sells new long shafts in his newbreedpart.com store.

No luck finding a good rear arm yet, but I am not done looking.

They are late model Sportfire specific.

I have made one for a late model by welding tabs for the upper wheels on an early Sportfire/Trailfire arm

I've been considering that option and it looks like I may have to do that
