I bought a 70 off ebay with rear suspension and now I need to finish the front. Does anybody know where to get the front triple clamps and how much? Any and all help appreciated.

Talk to Treshombre & Sterdy, they can probably hook you up with the triple clamps.

I did the full suspension on an old 185, many years ago..
I used a 250r swing and front forks from a 2 wheeler 125..
Made the clamps myself.. Bought some aluminum, drilled and whacked 'till it looked good..

Click to view attachmentClick to view attachmentFirst let me apologize to everyone for not telling everyone on this site about the 70. I admit I was only thinking of myself and my boy. But I will tell you all about it know. Yes this came out of Oklahoma. I believe the rear suspension is homemade. Let me know if the pic's work still new to the whole computer thing.

How did I miss that????
Suspension atc70 for only $280, now that's a deal!!!
The front is the easy part. Like I said before, Tres, Sterdy, or someone on here was making triples and I believe using xr70 forks.
Does anyone know what type of frame this is? Doesn't look like an A+.

I think the frame is a modified z50 k1 frame. I know that the swingarm is homemade. They used part of the original 70 frame. When I find a digital camera I will take some better pic's.
