Well i came home from school and found this on my doorstep. I do have some questions thought! Well the first thing i noticed was, it was packed in a big envelop and not a box, paint is chipping alittle, there is no instructions on how to put it on and i thought it would atleast say Denton on it since it was made by them. So now i need help on how to put this on.

After you ride with a damper --- you will wonder why you waited this long. :)
Once you are ready to install -- snap a couple of pics and give us a short write up to put in "how to". Good luck.

yfz. all i can tell you is the round side bolts to your steering stem and the other end sticks out the front between the frame rails above the front bumber. that is how i have seen it in pics. rebuildable and non rebuildable are self explanitory(sp) yours is non rebuildable and when it is worn out you just throw it away(recycle it of course). hope this helps a little. i am counting my coins for the precision.

If you got it from Rath you can just give them a call and ask to be emailed the instructions. Even if it was drop shipped from somewhere else, they will help you out. I got some nerfs from them with no paperwork and they emailed me the goods no problem.

Here is mine installed. Is is the same one but mine is rebuildable. You should always buy the rebuildable kind due too if a seal blows you can just rebuild it instead of buying a whole new one!

Well today i put it on and will get some pics of it attached, Also how long does a stabilizer last before it gets worn out? I don't race as much as most people usually so i would last longer and i might ride it once a week at the most.

Depends, I have a rebuildable one. It only lasted about 1 month, although my quad cart wheeling down the track at 50mph might have had something to do with it. LMAO. It sheared the keeper that holds the 2 rods togather. I have since rebuilt it, but one of the rods was scratched up pretty bad and now it won't seal. Looks like I am going to have to buy a new one.

Thanks for those pics its going to help me when mine arrives but one question-Did you have to move or modify the front brake lines or its mount located right behind the steering stem?

I've got the same nonrebuildable on my ZUK that my buddy ran on his YFZ for two years so if it blew now I couldn't get mad cause i feel it's had a good life and we've got our moneys worth out of it. I've always ran and had good luck w/ the NR Dentons.
