In his Signature it says they are Silver Vein, but they look Hammertone Gray to me.

Terry told me when I ordered them they were silver vien and chrome. Whats up, Can anyone confirm this?

can you see black spots in the a arms.......from the pic, they do look like hammertone, but i need your eyes. lonestar's silvervien is darker, and your a arms don't look very dark, maybe it's just got more silver in it then the black.

Dave400ex

03-13-2002, 07:59 PM

Yeah, Post some other Pictures.

03-14-2002, 09:30 AM

Well houser makes arms with grey hammertone, silvervien, and red. The hammertone is almost the same color as stock 400ex frames..the silvervien is a shiny silver with the black background..

THEY ARE SILVER WITH BLACK SPOTS, AND TO BE HONEST WITH YOU I DONT REALLY DIG, THEM, THEY DONT LOOK LIKE THE ONES ONE THE SITE, THEY CHANGED AND HAVE A CROSS BAR AT THE BOTTOM, THEY KIND OF LOOK LIKE PROTRAX, DOES ANYONE WANT TO BUY A SET OF +2 A-ARMS AND AXIS SHOCKS, LET ME KNOW:(

Dave400ex

03-16-2002, 09:33 AM

Do you have Any Pictures of the A-Arms? I just want to see what they Look like. Maybe Houser sent you the Wrong Arms. Why don`t you Like Them? What are you going to Buy Now?

MOOCAZEN

naw they have those trippy looking balljoints, so i know they are the right ones, i just dont like the feel, since i was running +3, i dont know, i was expecting more, ill try to post pics during the week

You are the First Person who has not Liked the Houser Long Travel Arms. Maybe it`s because most of the People that Buy the Houser Long Travel A-Arms go from Stock A-Arms to the Long Travel. You are going from Lonestar to Houser Long Travel. It must not feel like as Big as a Difference from Stock. The only thing that would be better is a Lobo Front End. You could also check out Walsh.

IM TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO, IM THE ONLY GUY IN MY GROUP THAT HAS HOUSER, 5 GUYS USE STRICKTLY ROLL, AND 1 USES LONESTAR AND 2 OTHER THE PROTRAX, THY WERE CURIOUS TO SEE THE DIFFERENCE, I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO

What Kind of Quads have the Pro-Trax Front? The Best Three Front Ends would be the Walsh Front End Setup, Roll Lobo Front End, or the Laeger T-Pin Front End which I don`t think is out for the 400EX yet. The Bad Thing about those three is you will be Waiting a while to get one of the Front Ends.

WELL THE ROLLS ARE:2 440 DUNCANS, AND 3 250R DUNCANCS WITH THE PC 2000 POWERHEAD, THE PROTRAX ARE 1 STOCK 250R AND ONE LAEGER 250R, THE LONESTAR IS A 250R ALSO, I WAS RUNING LONESTAR, BUT THOUGHT A CHANGE WOULD BE GOOD, IM TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO

Man are all of your Friends Rich? How can you Guys afford all those Mods? I`m having a Heck of a Time getting Money for Shocks. I would Check Out Walsh. None of your Friends have Walsh and it is Better then Roll Design. Dave Diver said the Walsh was the Best, Roll Lobo was Second, and the Laeger T-Pin was Third. Go to WWW.EastCoastATV.COM and check out Walsh. They also have Roll Design. Click on Build a Quad to see some Killer Quads. Later

Walsh all the way, they make the best chassis components in the world. Your gonna pay alittle more and wait longer but its well worth it to get hand made chassis parts.

Dave400ex

I agree with 400exRacerX, Walsh is the Best you are Gonna Get. To get the Best you are going to Pay More and Wait Longer. In the End I think you would be Happier if you went with Walsh though.

I just got gibson a-arms- they are great, I have ridden a Protrax quad with pep, and mine. The axis and Gibson are a great combination. (or any other long travel shock). They are also very durable, and were effortless to put on.

Gibson would be Good, but they are so Expensive. You can get Walsh Cheaper and I think Walsh is the Best you can Buy.
