    Im wanting to get a complete carb kit and only able to find needles and floats. I'm wanting everything i mean down to new seals and jets and odds and ends. My carbs are questionable. I've cleaned them really well but I would feel better with new parts. anybody have any info would be greatly appreciated.

    PM our parts vendor Chacal, or click on the XJ4ever banner at the top of the page.

    FYI: A FULL set of jets will put you back a good chunk of $$... Getting everything else (wheter or not you need it) will also add up but may be necessary.

    Take 'em apart and post of some pics for feedback :)

    chacal, chacal, chacal <- PM him

    Though just to warn you, he doesn't sell "kits" to do the carbs top to bottom (these aren't lawn-mower carbs), but he will tell you every piece you could need to rebuild, down to the bolts. You may not need or want it all, but he's got it.

    Some rubber parts are prohibitively expensive (like diaphrams), but most others can be had for a decent price. Anything else should be replaced as needed. But remember, it's everything x 4, so it does add up fast.

    The JBM Industries diaphrams are a good buy at $19 (and change each). No disrespect to Chac who is awesome.
