WANTED: 78 Liquifire Suspension

Post by Andrew27 »

Have a 78 LF. Trying to find a suspension. Sled in great condition, low miles, engine runs like a champ but bad suspension. One of the rails has been ground down, won't hold a new Hyfax. Searched all over Ebay and craigslist but to no avail. Fonud several suspensions off of '80 and newer sleds with the 3 bogey wheels but mine that I pulled out of it has 2 rectangle poly slides on top side of suspension as well as completely diff. front A arm than whats in my 1980. Any help and advice appreciated. Brand new to the older JD sleds.

Took some detailed pictures of the suspension that came out of my 78 LF. Haven't found or seen one like it so far. Completely diff. front end than whats in my 80 and 81. Not to mention 2 bogey wheels instead of the 3 rear ones or 6 total ones I'm seeing on others.
