Ok I just bought a gibson/axis front end that will be replacing my houser/elka setup.
I have some questions regarding the gibson a arms. First off the bottom a arms came without the dust caps. Do these a arms have special dust caps or can i use the stock ones? As for the tierods: Does gibson use a certain length or can I just use the ones that came with the houser a arms?

I managed to source the tierods from the guy that I bought it from. I think the a arms are +2.
The bottom a arms of mine looks like the stock a arms mounting that use dust caps. Can anyone confirm that the lower a arms use dustcaps?

I use to have this setup on my practice quad and I could not get the dust covers to fit in the bottom frame mounts so I ran without them. Also, I thought most gibson arms were +3 and a 4:1 rim ussually has to be used otherwise the rim will rub. The tierods are unique to gibson I believe but the tierod ends ussually work with the stock ends. I have pictures of my set up if you wanted me to email them to you. Thanks
